We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Provides the strongest support for automation.""Easy to see if all my servers are on correct firmware levels, with SPP packaging.""The template management makes the deployment of the firmware updates much faster.""The solution's technical support was great...The initial setup of HPE OneView was easy.""The best part is that you can integrate a two-way network. Earlier we could not manage the storage and ToR switch. Now we can create a LAN with our storage without any interface. In terms of switch management, it is now easy to understand the current configuration. It provides centralized management. It provides a single pane, and you can easily do all updates in one shot. It is a great product.""If you have a lot of devices, like we do, then you have to have one single pane of view, otherwise we lose too much time. So, we needed this type of solution.""I don't have to use CD-ROMs or anything like that to provision the servers.""The most valuable features are the composable structure, infrastructure, and automation."

"The alerting feature is very good because it allows you to set MOS alerts at various network junctures or data points.""Its analytical capability is really good.""The intention and the idea of the filter is great.""We don't have any complaints about the software. According to my team, it's a very good tool that's very intuitive.""The product has a very good graphical interface.""One of the valuable features is the ability to create CLI scripts on the fly to fix any issues. We were using it for QoS modeling to ensure that we were properly modeling QoS, and it basically said here is what you need to fix to get this QoS done, whether it is ACL or something else. It would either push or recommend. If you have the right credentials, you could also push. It is very good if you are a Cisco shop. It gives you reporting, latency, and bandwidth utilization for your applications, so you can do good capacity management planning. There are a lot of pieces that LiveNX can give you. It is a total NPM solution for SD-WAN.""All in all, LiveAction LiveNX has become an indispensable tool for maintaining and improving our network's reliability and performance, ultimately supporting our organization's goal of providing timely and dependable delivery services."

Cons
"​There was a feature called HPE cloud manager, but now it is owned by Micro Focus. HPE should make a cloud optimizer again.""It needs more reporting capabilities.""Those features, coming in version 4, that we're looking for are the discovery, primarily. But I think the scope-based access control is of interest, although, we didn't see any directory integration, so that, in itself, seems like it's still limited.""Integration could be improved. Sometimes OneView doesn't identify physical hardware.""I would like to see support for things that aren't in the current generation. We have a lot of 7th and 8th generation hardware.""The speed and performance of the solution are areas where the product lacks and needs improvement.""I think HPE could make more user-friendly interfaces, exclude Java and move to an HTML5 platform, make more detailed documentation, and lower the price.""Use it, but do not think it is going into the clouds, because it is not. There is room for improvement.​"

More HPE OneView Cons →

"This is a horrible solution and I think everything needs to be improved.""They need to create a more simplified UI.""The tool crashes sometimes when we try to pull reports simultaneously.""Sometimes the solution does not register devices properly and that is a bug.""It is not as robust as other NPM solutions. For instance, there is a problem while labeling specific applications. It works well with well-known applications, but when you have to put in new applications that are not very known and set them up with names, ports, URLs, or some protocols, it is not as intuitive.""Improved documentation and more responsive customer support can help in addressing issues faster.""The only downside to this software is the price."
