Principal Project Engineer at a computer software company with 501-1,000 employees

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

"The main benefit is you can deploy everything with it."

"You can design your workflows for your needs."

"It is an umbrella system that allows us to integrate many different systems into our heterogeneous environment."

"The IT process automation is the most valuable aspect of this solution."

"The event monitor is very good. You can monitor when the file is created so you can pick up the file once it's done."

"Self-service for developers, because they are able to deploy to development departments on their own, without needing people from operations."

"The product provides efficiency, in terms time, cost, and resources."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to see which problems have been resolved from deployment."

More Automic Continuous Delivery Automation [EOL] pros

"The solution handles complex deployments very efficiently."

"Stable solution that's good for automating the CI/CD pipeline: from development to production."

"The most valuable feature is the snapshot functionality, which allows us to access previous versions of the artifacts."

"The most valuable functionality is the ability to define the deployment process, schedule the deployment and automatically execute the deployments to different environments."

"The stability is good. I haven't experienced any issues."

"It is very easy to make a software release. It used to take us at least a couple of hours to make a release, now we went to production with a new one last night. This new release took me five minutes."

Cons

"There is an issue with the stability in the tool. The process of agent will stop, then the monitoring agent can't be recognized because the process is running, but you can talk with the system."

"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 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."

"It would be very beneficial for us to see integrations into cloud environments, especially into the Google Cloud environment because we are heading towards cloud."

"The stability of the solution can be improved."

"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."

"Not a perfect ten because the user interface is brand new and it needs improvement."

"GUI for mobile phones: Availability to approve and start deployment through mobile phones."

More Automic Continuous Delivery Automation [EOL] cons

"I would like to see more reporting for container architecture."

"The scalability of this application needs improvement. Changes and variations in the application become bottlenecks as they need to be more seamless and comfortable."

"I certainly would like to have a better way to pass information between deployment steps using UrbanCode Deploy because that's really difficult to do."

"The technical support of the solution could definitely be improved as PMRs take long to resolve."

"I would like to have the agent up and running at all times, as opposed to only while it is in the DevOps pipeline."

"The interface allows access in a number of ways but that can be confusing."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"We increased our quality and reduced our time costs."

"Customers often complain about the price."

"The cost of the solution is high but it offers great ROI."

"The licensing fees for this solution are based on the number of servers that are being deployed and the number of agents that you have."

"Considering COVID-19, the price is too high."
