Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"CA Process Automation manager is a very powerful production tool."
"We took our server provisioning process from about 30 days to about 4 days on the first iteration of implementation."
"This tool is used in my organization for automating IT infrastructure related incidents or service requests."
"It’s a great product, extremely versatile but takes a certain skillset to use and implementation of automation can be time consuming when done properly."
"Technical support is unequivocally excellent; in fact, the best customer service and technical support I’ve experienced during my 12 years in IT."
"For our use it really does very well; it provides us exactly what we need, and it runs with low-resource utilization and moves quickly."
"The benefits are the efficiency we achieve with such a product, as we could automate processes which were done in the past by humans, speeding up the reaction by 10 times and saving us a lot of money."
"PAM has the ability to integrate and build solutions that work well in CA's suite of service management products and those that are outside of service management."
"Took few hours to build workflows with ready-to-use templates, so we had improved productivity."
"It’s easier, more controlled and automatized checks of the budget through this system."
"We use it a lot for creating workflows to transfer materials between plants, which is a signature part of what we do."
 

Cons

"Better reporting, because we have to true up our licenses every three months because we license on running concurrent processes, so we have to provide a report to CA every three months using their tool -- which never works."
"I'd like to see additional form functionality and having Python as an available common script language."
"A lot of times they don't get resolved, but I'm okay with those kind of responses sometimes."
"It needs auto-triggering of workflows based on machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI)."
"These configurations can be changed only through the installation wizard. There's no way to update such information in the administration interface, which is, in my opinion, very bad."
"CA offers minimal public information pertaining to the performance drain the usage of some objects and operators introduce to processing."
"The solution engine is in Java. Regardless of developments, the solution will always be limited to what Java offers."
"Every so often the service needs to be restarted otherwise it runs slower and slower. I think this may be due to a memory leak."
"This solution needs to be more customizable."
"The reports for users. The reports with more details; we have to generate them by the database."
"Yes, for email notification but it could also be with company network."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has provided ROI by auto resolving incidents or requests in the ITSM queue, improved MTTR and SLA adherence, and added value to the delivery of services and the customer experience."
"There are a lot of automation savings from any process which is repeatable."
