"We get templates, so it's speed to delivery for us. It's a big difference with the template features.""Have a single plane of glass across all of the server platforms.""Administration-wise it's going to be easier. More smooth and more flexible.""​The stability is very good. I have never had an issue with it over the three years that I have been using it.""Broad range of tools to create executive and operations dashboards.""The hypervisor and cluster profiles make it easy to integrate with VMware.""Provides the strongest support for automation.""We have the dashboard up on a big screen, and you can actually see when things go wrong or if there are any faults with any of the servers. The backup is automated as well, so the appliance is quite good.​"

Cons
"We are currently exploring automation options for various areas, and Avantra should consider implementing automation for change request management, an area they have not yet ventured into. While Avantra is currently excelling in monitoring and system refreshes, there is scope for improvement in automating change request management. In addition to primarily focusing on SAP, Avantra currently performs kernel patches which are core SAP patches. However, exploring more into OS patching could be another potential area for Avantra to expand its automation capabilities.""The dashboard needs to improve.""The machine-learning is lacking and should be improved."

More Avantra Cons →

"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.""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.""I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine.""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.""​Technical support is not very good. The engineers do not know a lot about the product​, even when asked simplistic questions.""Does not allow for switch configuration other than through OneView.""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."
