• Repeatability of complex deployments of applications to different web application containers.
• Insight in status of all stages of our deployment pipelines
• Increased delivery speed and reliability of our products to our customers
• Extensibility with a broad range of plugins covering most of today's modern infrastructure
• Customization through a well documented plugin mechanism to cater for infrastructure an functional needs not covered by the commercial plugins available

The solution creates a manifest file that caps the bridge between the developer and the system admin.

The solution's most valuable aspect is that it is vendor-agnostic and it has a file called Manifest, which makes it possible for developers, ops people, and system admins to cooperate.

You can follow the delivering process of deployment. When an error occurs, you know which step is involved. Error messages are sometimes not enough clear to solve the issue. But if you work with a sand box environment before using your real environment, it should be ok.

The main quality is still to have a "One Click" process, then you save precious time.

For us the flexibility of this product is nice, we can manage several things within one file and by giving parameters to the deployables. So it is very useful to implement it on several machines in different network segments.

- The product sounds good thanks to its UI, as it is really easy to perform a deployment... when things work.

- Product just works when you're with a pure JEE solution (Tomcat or Weblogic), with a well written app that can be shutdown and restarted properly, and a reliable database.

Ensuring our deployment techniques are no more people dependent and scalable automation are clearly the most important to us and our business needs.

Overall the key features from which we benefited are

1. Model based deployment automation and speed of deployment

2. Agentless

3. Visibility and Insights on the Deployment process

4. Self Service deployment for our teams

5. Ensuring compliance

The integration in the cycle of a project build and the facilities to integrate with Maven.

1. Dictionary

2. UI

3. Maven Plugin

4. Integration with different servers like Jboss, tomcat.

Controlled / automated way to deploy application releases.

Automatic deployments using packages build using TFS and the way it assembles the configuration settings for us.
