Top Rated HPE Synergy Alternatives
I like how HPE Synergy's built-in software has the intelligence and technology to boast excellent auto discovery capabilities. Also, the software's fluid resource pools allow customers to immediately start up the infrastructure and have it be ready to run physical and virtual applications.

You definitely pay a premium for the highly advanced software and that is understandable; however, it does make this product a bit expensive. That being said, it is difficult to find a perfectly similar competing software and once I found HPE Synergy I became more than okay with paying the premium. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the most importnt nice feature is teha bility to scale on computing power or storage on the same infrastracture where the expandabilty is always mees the workload requirements, as well teh single management platform for the entire ifrastracture reduces the effors and time to perform any task.

the only concern I have is the vendor lock, where such solution is only supported by one vendor under one product line, in case of the vendor droped teh product the client need to refresh the entre solution and do massive migration Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support sometimes take time to escalate the case from level 1 to level 2 support
SUT integration can be ameliorated

I’m very fond of the composability of the infrastructure, so being able to build our own server profiles, then build up the infrastructure that we need from compute modules is very much convenient and beneficial. Just automating all the management tasks that we have for our server hardware has been incredibly helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We experienced few to no problems, but one of the issues that we did have is with the firmware baselining. We would also like to see SaaS connectivity and sharing of storage between frames sometime in Synergy’s near future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
