Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, GitLab, Red Hat and others in Release Automation."It is an umbrella system that allows us to integrate many different systems into our heterogeneous environment."
"The metrics gathered after deployment, for example, the rate of success versus the rate of failure."
"It provides a wonderful user interface which is easy to use."
"I would say our headwind, or our time to market, is reduced considerably. We get more consistent results out of it, because you write one time and once it's automated you expect it to behave the same way every time. And it cut down a lot of re-work for us."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to see which problems have been resolved from deployment."
"We have saved on our time costs and have seen more quality."
"I think on a day-to-day basis, it has increased the capacity to deploy. We don't have to wait for someone to do something."
"It can support very complex environments and dependencies."
"Automic is perfect to work with for a lot of job loads."
"It helps our efficiency because it is a batch processing tool which works without a menu."
"It is reliable. We have never had any unplanned crashes."
"Both the stability and the scalability of Automic Workload Automation are great."
"The very special feature that we use is the connection to ServiceNow."
"All the components that it can use to design work flow; process automation."
"It is the automation. Saving time and money is the key. We automate everything."
"The modulation of some of the things, like how the things are connected and disconnected. You have different login objects that you can quickly put to other different objects and other objects that you create, which makes transporting things very easy from one environment to the next."
"We hope that we can integrate the new CD Directive into our portfolio, so we can bring the deployment and release management closer together."
"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."
"key thing is support for cloud-based deployment. That is lacking."
"Not a perfect ten because the user interface is brand new and it needs improvement."
"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."
"At the moment, the version that we are using (version 12.0), the environment is complex with multiple installations. Therefore, the monitoring is not scalable, but this should be improved in 12.1 and 12.2."
"GUI for mobile phones: Availability to approve and start deployment through mobile phones."
"It seems still very technical to get the full features out... Once you get to some of the leadership levels, such as myself, you don't have time to go digging into it. It would be nice to have some additional performance features such as reporting, analytics."
"From my point of view, the current product needs more stability."
"If you're getting deep into some of these workflows, you may have 20 different windows open and, if you didn't already have that deep understanding of how enterprise orchestration works, it would be very overwhelming to get up to speed on something like that... It needs some way to minimize the amount of windows and get it to where you could have all the information you need available on the screen."
"The new user interface needs improvement. The previous version was good and stable. Now, we have to check the new one before using a web browser. It is not stable."
"There are too many bugs to be solved after a version upgrade. We are working on the limits of an architecture with 16,000 platforms. It is impossible to test everything out in the software lab of CA."
"Our recent experience with technical support has not been good, because it took a couple of months to get feedback. Traces and reports were sent, but were not analyzed for at least two months before providing feedback, and they did not give the right traces. This took two months to find out, so that was not too good."
"Choosing Automic Workload Automation essentially locks us into their ecosystem, making it nearly impossible to switch to a different product."
"I should be able to grant a user access to execute a job without having to directly list every include, prompt set, output scan, script, login, etc. An inherited read for execution purposes would accomplish the same results without making the admin list every single object every time, as well as deny the user the ability to edit."
