Automatic installation for complex deployments and environments, with good workflow support
I like that really complex deployments are possible with it. It's very good. You have everything you need. You can design your workflows for your needs. You can do so much more, it's not just an automatic installation tool. It's a real deployment tool. I can do the complete deployment with everything that is possible.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Self-service for developers, because they are able to deploy to development departments on their own, without needing people from operations."
"The capability to provide visibility to the stakeholders, to management, is the biggest piece that showcases what the solution is about."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to see which problems have been resolved from deployment."
"In first pilot run, we achieved five times faster deployment without human work."
"The agents are one of the solution's most valuable features, and I like agents for file transfers so you can transfer the files from agent to agent on the different platforms."
"The main benefit is you can deploy everything with it."
"They have gained efficiency that they cannot achieve in any other way."
"You can automate everything you want."
"The solution's most valuable aspect is that it is vendor-agnostic and it has a file called Manifest, which makes it possible for developers, ops people, and system admins to cooperate."
"It has been a key enabler for us to implement Continuous Delivery and DevOps across the organisation, increasing release frequency by a factor of approximately 10 and reducing re-deployments by a factor of 50."
"The product has a flexibility that allows it to work with various deployments and various technologies."
"Customer support is excellent, quick response from product specialists."
"We find it to be a very good fit for what we need to accomplish and it's very easy to manage and to maintain it from an enterprise skill perspective, as well."
"This product is an innovative market leader in the field of application deployment."
"The solution creates a manifest file that caps the bridge between the developer and the system admin."
"The product sounds good thanks to its UI, as it is really easy to perform a deployment when things work."
 

Cons

"The dashboard should allow you to see the current state of packages in each environment, not only on an individual application basis, but across the entire application platform."
"We hope that we can integrate the new CD Directive into our portfolio, so we can bring the deployment and release management closer together."
"GUI for mobile phones: Availability to approve and start deployment through mobile phones."
"One of the biggest features I've been asked by my team to put in there is opening more scripting languages to be part of the platform."
"There needs to be better error handling and error descriptions. It should be more clear what the errors are and what we can do to fix them."
"key thing is support for cloud-based deployment. That is lacking."
"One of the biggest features I've been asked by my team to put in there is opening more scripting languages to be part of the platform. There is a little bit of a learning curve in learning how to code some of the workflows in Automic at this time. If widely used languages like Perl and Python were integrated, on top of what's already there, the proprietary language, it would make it easier to on-board new resources."
"The stability of the solution can be improved."
"Our customers have not been happy with technical support. They need to do much better to help clients solve issues."
"Some deployables have to be built, it is not quite difficult but not every product is supported by one standard."
"While it is a flexible product and provides a means of integrating with virtually anything, the company should make a better effort to keep up with new platform integrations."
"Customer Service: 3/10. Technical Support: 3/10."
"Customer service was not very good."
"GUI: uses Adobe Flash which is a bit of a pain (Soon to be replaced by a new GUI with HTML5 and AngularJS)."
"The tool needs to improve on cloud-native GitOps."
"I’d like better reporting possibilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Customers often complain about the price."
"We increased our quality and reduced our time costs."
"I can save time and money more quickly."
"If you have a fixed contract, it has limits to spreading out. If you have a flexible enterprise license contract, then you have a lot of scalability for this tool."
"Pricing costs are based on annual subscriptions."
"The product’s pricing is acceptable. We get volume discounts."
