We did the implementation of the solution ourselves.

To install the system hardware, we engaged the services of HPE professionals to ensure proper installation.

We have a team that does the implementation of the solution.

We used support from the vendor for the deployment.

HPE BladeSystem does not require a lot of maintenance, because all the components are specific and the costs are less.

The implementation was completed in-house with the help of an HPE partner.

We handled deployment in-house with our own experts. We also have an internal team that deals with the maintenance of the solution, and it is very easy to maintain.

I set up the solution myself. I didn't need the assistance of a consultant or integrator.

We had a vendor assist us with the implementation.

Vendors will come and they configure mostly hardware side. The remaining part, networking, et cetera, we configure, and everything is fine. Our clients mostly deployed it in-house. We come in to configure the WLANs and remaining stuff.

I am a Value Added Reseller, working with the end-user to acquire and build the solutions.

I had HPE do it.

The training takes something like five days and it is worth the effort to be able to do implementation and management by yourself. 

We did it in-house.

We hired a contractor that implemented the solution for us. We did not handle the process ourselves.

We used resellers.

We have the engineers from HPE set up the HPE BladeSystem for us.

We did an in-house implementation, and my advice is to be very familiar with the HP BladeSystem, and what it can offer as a converged infrastructure solution in order to have a successful implementation to meet your ends need.

We are a reseller.

A contractor implemented this solution for us.

We have two in-house engineers trained on HP solutions that perform the implementation and maintenance. Our experience shows that the implementation is really straightforward provided you have a plan in place already.

As I wasn't a part of the implementation process, I cannot speak to if there was any assistance with the process. 

It has not been applied from a remote site, only from the current infrastructure. You should have a personalized follow-up for the management/administration of the implemented solution.

HP appreciates discussions. Whenever we've started new projects, they bring the sales guy, engineers, and senior solutions specialist. We sit and talk and we set objectives and accordingly we define the projects to execute and monitor.

Through a vendor and they are well experienced.

Vendor assistance is a good idea if you are transition from rack mount servers to blades. Some hand-holding is required, but not much.

Ordinarily, we work with a general contractor such as an integrator of a consultant, but that is assuming we have a new deployment.  

If the project is a complex one that includes any other items (storage, network, etc.) I would strongly recommended to hire a vendor team as it is their job to not only initialize the BladeSystem, but also to integrate it with the entire solution.

HPE provided support during the implementation.

Tecnasa installed the system for us.

We are the vendor team.

It was implemented through a vendor.

A team from HPE assisted me.
