Navigating HPe Website for Software Upgrades Presents Challenges for Users
When it is working , it works fantastic. When it is not working, most of the time we need to engage HPe Engineer to work on it. Not working as in hardware failure (and then everything breaks) until need to rebuild the setup. However, to be fair, the issue only happen at a particular sites. So i am not sure if it is due to environmental factors such as high dust environment. Other than that, other sites are working flawlessly. Only complain is pretty hard to navigate HPe sites to obtain software for upgrade the appliance version. - Unit Head Enterprise Workspace50M-1B USDIT ServicesReview Source
