We performed a comparison between DX Unified Infrastructure Management and HPE OneView based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two IT Infrastructure Monitoring solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I definitely appreciate the flexibility and ease of use. We've been using UIM for almost three years now. It's pretty much point and click, very easy to use. And we've had no problems scaling it to our own environment."
"It is the foundation for our monitoring solution."
"Scalability and flexibility. The product can grow with your infrastructure so you don't have to install other products. Just add components. It's very simple."
"Technical support is great."
"One of the things that I like about DX Infrastructure is that the topology is good enough to see what is happening in the infrastructure. You also get alerts if something is happening in the network. There are many features and benefits. It is serving our customers in knowing exactly how their network is performing in terms of reliability. It also helps them in planning the capacity. They know how much bandwidth the branches are consuming."
"What I like about DX Unified Infrastructure Management is that it's a very good product. The feature I found most valuable in the solution is the MCS feature, which is the automatic deployment of the objects you want to monitor. You can set up a system, for example, if it's a Windows machine and I want to test specific devices on it, I could do that through DX Unified Infrastructure Management. That type of deployment is very good because it means you won't miss any monitoring aspect on any server."
"Another division handed us the opportunity to monitor their solutions as written, and UIM was very useful for that."
"It gives an alarm when there's something going on, not just when there's an expected spike that happens every night on a server."
"By being able to deploy servers very quickly and rapidly, we can respond to any business requirement needed."
"I don't have to use CD-ROMs or anything like that to provision the servers."
"The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster."
"We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features."
"Provides the strongest support for automation."
"The solution's technical support was great...The initial setup of HPE OneView was easy."
"Easy to see if all my servers are on correct firmware levels, with SPP packaging."
"We could literally swap out a piece of hardware, slide one back into the chassis, and immediately - about three reboots later - it was identical. We didn't have to worry about configuring it, we didn't have to spend any time getting anything into place. It came back and it healed the environment almost immediately."
"Making a GUI with criteria such as selection by robot/hub/probe etc."
"We want to see more investment in the UI and the dashboard."
"DX UIM's reporting and customization need to be improved."
"A useful feature to have would be automatic configuration per standard by new robots that check in for any particular customer."
"We would like to see automatic network topology."
"Currently lacks a mobile application which would be helpful."
"There should be wider coverage of storage infrastructure."
"It would be good to implement views showing the aggregated status graphically."
"Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView."
"We ran into a couple of issues here and there with the baselines for the firmware and not having enough space on the appliance itself to be able to have more than two baselines."
"The tool doesn't send automated alerts via email...We should be able to receive notification emails when a server or hardware issue arises, which would be helpful if someone is unavailable in the office."
"We've had a few issues. We just upgraded to the 3.9.0 version. We think that now that we are on that version, hopefully a lot of those things are going to go away for us."
"They can improve reporting and provide more customized reports. Currently, reporting is a bit limited. It can be complex to learn and manage for beginners. Because of my experience, I find it comfortable to manage, which might not be the case with beginners. It would be good if they can make it a little bit easier to understand. They can provide a more graphical view of connectivity and other things. Their technical support can also be improved."
"The network configuration part of HPE OneView needs improvement. The solution has way too many features, and there's a need for proper configuration indicators to be put in place."
"The solution could add storage, integration services, and end-to-end support for Cisco switches or other competitor products."
"There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again."
