Helps us manage complex workloads, reduce our workload failure rates, and save us time
The visibility and control features are somewhat limited. This is a recognized weakness, but thee vendor is currently revamping the user interface to address it. While the current UI is a bit outdated, it's undergoing improvement. AutoSys Workload Automation has some areas for improvement, particularly in housekeeping and product maintenance. These tasks are currently quite manual and labor-intensive for our team. Additionally, the reporting and forecasting functionalities could be more robust. One area for improvement with AutoSys Workload Automation is that it comprises several distinct tools configured to work together. This necessitates familiarity with multiple tools for effective solution management. Consequently, it can sometimes lack a sense of cohesiveness as a unified solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We get better reports than we use to have."
"CA Workload Automation AutoSys Edition is one of the most powerful schedulers that you have on the open systems, or going between Window servers; to be able to schedule and take advantage of the different powers that the automation has with it."
"It has allowed us to automate many of the functions of our operations staff. For instance, we had production control staff spending two hours a day entering date parms into our daily business processes. And now, CA Workload Automation does it for us."
"AutoSys Workload Automation is a stable solution."
"It is very valuable for us when we are trying to arrange or orchestrate jobs into a system. It is helpful for triggering jobs for a scheduled task."
"Autosys is one of the oldest products in the market, and it has been around for quite a long time, close to 20 to 25 years."
"The flexibility in solving job scheduling challenges allows us to successfully integrate an acquired business’ fiscal close with our own, even though there is a lot of variance as to when they run in the calendar month."
"Automic Automation Engine provides us the ability to map logic using a scripting language."
"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations."
"Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"Easy integration with Salesforce"
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"It is a scalable solution."
"It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
 

Cons

"AutoSys Workload Automation could improve the integration."
"Reduce the number of operational files. This would make the job of a system programmer supporting ESP easier."
"We see improvement possibilities in the processing provision of predefined evaluations or individual objects, or in the Self Service portal, which can be used by any user to monitor objects or start objects."
"SQL server clustering is not supported."
"More benefits with the agent upgrades, and that's about it. Other than that we have no complaints with it. It's been awesome."
"Pricing model for distributed should have an Enterprise option."
"Documentation and cross-application externals could be improved."
"Some of the reports are either a bit hard to understand or don’t give you what you might expect to see."
"The initial setup can be a little bit difficult."
"You need to have some development skills or hire a Jitterbit engineer to make changes."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"I know with Salesforce updating the UI like they did, it slowed it down a lot."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
"Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"Sometimes additional connectors are needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid to use the solution monthly."
"It is overpriced."
"I certainly think the pricing is worth the value."
"The return on investment would be very high because doing things manually without this product would be extremely expensive."
"There is an annual license to use AutoSys Workload Automation."
"The pricing needs to be improved. Some of my client's complained that it was too expensive."
"I don't have information on the exact licensing cost of AutoSys Workload Automation because that's managed by the tools and financing teams. For agents, it's close to $4,00, but for the server setup, it's usually a one-time license initially, and it's AMC which is paid every year and comes close to $8,000 to $10,000."
"People need to pay attention to how they use their ESP agents on the distributed platform. That's where some of the cost comes in, based on how many you need or how many you use."
"The solution's cost is mid-ranged compared to other vendors."
"The added bonus is that Jitterbit doesn't charge for any data volume/traffic."
"The Jitterbit price is based upon endpoints. They also offer ERP connectors with their Enterprise edition"
"Jitterbit was extremely cost effective for us compared to other options."
"I do believe Jitterbit has one of the better pricing and licensing options out there compared to its competitors."
"Each business needs to determine if it is a mission critical aspect."
