Monitors well with Citrix, stable, and the support is very responsive
It looks like it is easy to scale, but I don't know how far it can go out. We are only a 300, or 400 person company. We are not terribly large. It looks like it should be able to scale up until 10,000 at least. There are two users in the company who use this solution, I use it, and the helpdesk.

Sr. Systems Engineer at a media company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Efficient management and upgrades streamline complex setups
My main complaint is about the blades on the frames, which seem to have a lot of problems. We often have to call HPE for replacements, such as for memory. Constant issues arise, leading to frequent replacement of blade parts. Additionally, the upgrade process is lengthy, requiring careful planning as we cannot match ESXi versions without aligning OneView first, leading to delays.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like that it not only has the ability to monitor but that it can do a lot of specific Citrix monitoring."
"I think Goliath offers a very good tool to do simulated Citrix logons with actual user accounts and that the reports are useful to monitor and debug a session."
"I would definitely give them high praise for what they do, and for being a special niche product."
"I like that the solution offers a diversity of things; it can give you resource monitoring, it can be integrated to detect an application crash, to capture syslog, things like that, and I like the diversity of the dashboard."
"Offers a diversity of features."
"In conclusion, I think Goliath Performance Monitor is a true winner."
"My overall conclusion is that it is a valuable product for simulating Citrix logons because it does it with minimal effort and with a real user account."
"The OneView Global Dashboard is very user-friendly and it can be used for monitoring the power consumption and temperature of the data center and racks."
"We also have the 3PAR and the GUI is almost the same. So the recognition is very good."
"It improves our productivity, because we can use OneView for more than just servers."
"Scalability is perfect; if I need to, I can add another couple blades or I can add more to it, and I still have about half my 3PAR nodes open so I can keep adding storage as I need it."
"Its simplicity is the most valuable feature."
"In 3.0, HPE has done a better job with firmware updates, added more features, and also enabled the possibility to stage updates on the iLO card."
"OneView allowed us to accelerate the base configuration far faster and more accurately than ever before with manual configuration procedures."
"I like the ability that we can manage multiple enclosures within OneView; it's like one stop shopping where you can manage all the server profiles and do everything from a blade enclosure standpoint using OneView."
 

Cons

"Hardware requirements of the management server are kind of steep, 4cpu is quite a number."
"With Goliath IT Monitors, the processing speed is very slow."
"However, its GUI can use a little help. The navigation is not the most straightforward like many other monitoring tools."
"I would love to be able to tell what ISP the user is coming from."
"The setup is a bit complex."
"Issues with generating reports; consistency is not there."
"There is no way currently to manage the onboard storage from the servers through the OneView application."
"In OneView, we only have the web interface to check the switch. It lacks flexibility."
"Our first experience with the technical support was with one of the other products that is associated with OneView, which is ICSP, and the support was pretty poor."
"It needs more reporting capabilities."
"There are still some limitations in OneView, as it manages only the hardware and not the applications."
"I believe the prices of HPE OneView should be reduced, as it is quite expensive."
"I had some minor difficulties with upgrading, but the solution still works fine."
"I would love the ability to either import a range of IPs for the ILO, or be able to do a scan."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price seems reasonable."
"I think that the price of OneView is $500 USD per server, which is a little high."
"When it comes to the government, money is never an issue, so it was excellent in terms of the HPE OneView licensing cost. Hitachi was cheaper, but I'd rate HPE OneView cost-wise as eight out of ten."
"The solution is free to use, but if you want the management aspect you require a virtual machine such as C7000 or Synergy which require licenses."
"I feel the product's price falls a bit on the higher side."
"Synergy does not require iLO licenses but servers and enclosures must be purchased."
"HPE had some other solutions, but they were actually quite expensive to buy. So, when OneView came along, it was kind of reasonable in terms of price for licenses, etc."
"​I am happy with the price."
"HPE could lower the price."
