Antony Askew - PeerSpot reviewer
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 While the current UI is a bit outdated, it's undergoing improvement.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

"This solution has made my clients' workplaces a lot less labor-intensive."
"AutoSys Workload Automation is a stable solution."
"It's very easy to work with. The learning curve is not that steep."
"Inherit Dependencies feature reduces scheduling errors for holiday processing."
"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 gives a real-time view of all the batch processing that we have. Monitoring-wise, it is really good."
"​We run millions of jobs through it every day using it for financial transactions, banking, credit cards, PeopleSoft, payroll, etc."
"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."
"We only use small parts of the solution, however, the parts that we use are quite adequate."
"Jitterbit handles the most lines of data in a .csv and loads the quickest of any data loader I have tried."
"Integrity, ease of use, user-friendly user interface, and errorless logs are the most valuable features."
"The Cloud Console for monitoring and troubleshooting data operations."
"Jitterbit provides the ability to quickly map data between files and databases."
"The fluid user interface (probably the most user friendly interface, when compared to its competitors)."
"It is very easy to build integrations and processes to pull and push data."
"It runs like an appliance and has tremendous throughput."
 

Cons

"I am not sure whether it is our limitation or a tool limitation because we haven't yet explored it, but whenever we look for different types of reporting, we have some limitations in getting those. It could be because of the way we have set it up internally in our enterprise, but it would be helpful if we can customize the reporting features and some of the alerts that can go out. When we connect enterprise systems, each one looks for a different use case, and if we can get different types of reporting, it will be helpful."
"Some of the reports are either a bit hard to understand or don’t give you what you might expect to see."
"We are trying to see if we can use this from a cloud perspective with AWS, Azure, and other clouds, but it seems that there is no cloud integration in this product. We would like to see cloud integration. We are very pleased with this solution, but we are moving our application to the cloud, and we found out that it doesn't support any cloud features. So, we are trying to find a replacement."
"I would like to see two-factor authentication, since you see a lot of companies in the news for security breaches. That is a really big thing for us."
"To make it a lot more user-friendly, in order to make it so other people can use it without having to do much training with it; the more user-friendly it is, the easier it is to work with."
"The WCC could be improved."
"Documentation and cross-application externals could be improved."
"AutoSys Workload Automation could improve the integration."
"Sometimes additional connectors are needed."
"I would like the ability to offer a dedicated cloud version for security."
"Sometimes we experience disconnections and I have to close all Jitterbit programs."
"There were some bugs in the product. For example if you run a delete query and test, it deletes the actual data."
"In the past few months, there have been some server downtimes during work hours that have affected some critical scheduled integrations."
"Looping through complex data structures can be difficult."
"The initial setup can be a little bit difficult."
"Its API management capabilities need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We paid to use the solution monthly."
"I certainly think the pricing is worth the value."
"The price of this solution is reasonable and there is an annual license required."
"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."
"CA pricing has been a problem, and not looked upon favorably here at all."
"There is an annual license to use AutoSys Workload Automation."
"Validate how many agents you need beforehand."
"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."
"Jitterbit was extremely cost effective for us compared to other options."
"The Jitterbit price is based upon endpoints. They also offer ERP connectors with their Enterprise edition"
"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."
