Redwood RunMyJobs Reviews

My responsibilities include a number of monotonous manual tasks to be done on a day-to-day basis like data validation, data cleansing, proofreading, data uploads, database maintenance, scheduling DB jobs, monitoring success and error reports, creating relationship models between multiple data sets, etc.

These tasks take most of my time, and I end up working outside of office hours and even on weekends, even after putting in so much manual effort I used to end up making errors and spending hours debugging and starting from scratch many times.

Redwood RunMyJobs has automated all of the manual jobs into a simplified automation process. It has taken care of scheduling, DB jobs, monitoring the jobs, and generating reports that can help me in analyzing data and provide better insights into the business.

Redwood has eliminated the effort of coding, building, deploying, and maintaining an efficient automation platform. It manages automation upgrades and eliminates dependencies, redwood enables you to automate business processes end-to-end and manage them seamlessly.

1. Our project has been integrated with multiple technologies like SAP and non-SAP, HANA cloud, and others. Redwood helped us to automate all the tasks, jobs, workflows, and events.

2. It has a provision to showcase job statistics at a single UI called dashboards.

3. Low resource utilization and effective monitoring.

4. Low-cost software compared with other scheduling applications.

5. Easy to add external dependencies among the jobs in the workflows and automate as per the business requirements.

The solution has improved the organization by:

1. Automating a large number of jobs and workflows across all technologies in a single place.

2. Integrating with ServiceNow for auto-creating Incidents in case of any job failures.

3. No manual monitoring of batch jobs.

4. Offering a high-security standard application and low-cost software.

5. Having advanced features like dashboards, logging, and load balancer.

6. Reducing resource utilization and automating all external dependent jobs.

7. Different security functionality for restricting users to certain functions (read/write).

Redwood is a centralized management system for batch jobs in SAP EP7. Jobs can be planned in Redwood in the most effective way possible with a number of job-related activities, such as the ability to restart, resubmit, kill, cancel, edit, hold, release, and enable/disable the scheduled work with a single click. 

A single click can stop, start, hold, release, activate, or disable anything in the Redwood system. Instead of stopping the process server until there is a serious problem, you can stop the specific queues where the jobs have been affected or are having problems.

Recently, we modified our Redwood RunMyJobs employment schedules. Redwood was used to scheduling about 2000 jobs; its benefit is that it allows us to connect to databases and obtain information; in the past, we had to create numerous jobs and files to carry out this process. 

REL expressions are quite helpful for setting up the preconditions.

To load the data and output the reports to the business, there are many different process chains that are active. It would be quite impossible to manage the flow of data burden without redwood. Redwood, in this case, manages all data loads. It is impossible to manage such complicated architecture and flow of data manually. Redwood Run My Job, a fantastic automation tool, is appreciated.

Redwood RunMyJobs is mainly used to make job schedules happen automatically. I've used it for important tasks, and it's been really helpful. It's a dependable and efficient platform for automating important work processes. 

You can also use it to automatically back up your organization's data every day. It shows how well your organization is doing and tells you if something important doesn't work. Redwood RunMyJobs has saved me a lot of time and effort because it does my job schedules automatically. 

I would recommend it to anyone who needs a good tool for getting work done on time. One great thing about it is that it's good at handling errors and can work with other systems. It's easy to set up if you know a bit about it, and it's user-friendly. It helps you get more done.

Redwood RunMyJobs made my organization work better. It saves us a lot of time and money by doing jobs automatically. It also reduces the mistakes that people make. 

The tool is really good at keeping our data safe when it's being used. We can connect it to other systems and programs easily. It also tells us how well our work is going and helps us find and fix mistakes. 

Redwood RunMyJobs is a tool we can trust. Redwood makes things happen automatically and smoothly. It helps make the process of creating and using software easier, so we can deliver it faster. This means we can keep testing and using it all the time. This saves time, makes our software better, and lets us control how we build it.

We're impressed with the way Redwood transformed workflow automation in our organization. It has become an integral part of our daily and weekly operations, streamlining processes, and increasing efficiency. Redwood has a great Interface that is easy to use. Even with limited technical knowledge, one can make configurations in it. Scheduling the batch jobs, automating the data transfers and complex workflows are fully automated, and no manual intervention is required. It seamlessly integrates with other systems to bring the solution.

Using Redwood has enhanced efficiency like never before, It has pre-built templates and libraries, which makes it easy to design and customize the workflows the way we require. It brings comprehensive solutions to our automation in an organization. 

Monitoring and alerting is the best feature. We can be notified of the status of the task. Error handling is an advanced feature that increases the accuracy of the work. Redwood is more flexible and we can schedule the tasks based on different time zones.

Basically, this tool is primarily used due to the fact that it is very reliable for every new user. We can say that it is a user-friendly tool. 

Redwood Workload Automation is really a great product. Personally, I would recommend it to every enterprise as a workflow/process automation tool.

As a new user, it is easy to connect with any application, including SAP ABAP, Oracle, and Peoplesoft. Redwood provides many good searches as well (i.e. fuzzy, wildcard, etc.)

In Redwood, we can easily create jobs and easily transport them from one environment to another. There are multiple tabs available as per the client's requirements. You can easily schedule and monitor the jobs.

Earlier, my organization was using the Automic UC4 tool for scheduling purposes. However, there were many cons to using it - like more coding and script knowledge required. In contrast, in Redwood, we can easily create the job and it's very interactive for the user.

In Redwood Workload Automation, we can schedule many jobs at the same time using different time zones. In this way we can easily create the notification part, alerting and monitoring as per the user's needs.

This tool provides many quick functions in your system screen, including refresh, running queues, process servers, and filters.

1. Since an alerting mechanism was provided; it helps to prevent future business impact.

2. Redwood can seamlessly link to a number of outside/Legacy systems. There won't be any delays after the job is booked, therefore disruption of the work.

3. All third-party systems can have a batch job scheduled for them.

4. There won't be a problem with memory loss.

5. The support/help center ensures we can find solutions to all of our questions, which is a very good feature.

6. The tool's submission frame and time window, where we may schedule jobs as needed, are its best feature.

7. This program works with every browser.

8. As this practically covers every time zone, we may plan tasks according to local/national time.

Without a doubt, this should be your first choice if you wish to automate things. This should be your first option if you want a well-known brand that has your back at your fingertips. 

It is simple to use. If you can communicate in English, scheduling jobs will be simple and accurate. It offers good stability and versatility. 

It is integrated with our infrastructure across all of our IT platforms, which is a major bonus. Its graphical user interface helps with batch and online process planning.

It makes it easier for processes to take precedence over batch processes to adjust their priority.

The solution increases CPU speed and reduces the cost of machine time for the business.                                                                                 

It's used for all of our SAP applications. We have ERP, CRM, and data warehousing. It's used for our PeopleSoft, and it's used for some of the other corporate internal applications. Informatica Data Warehousing uses it.

I don't build jobs. I'm part of the team that did the version and the infrastructure part of it. Our teams go through the process definition and the chain definition for the most part, and I believe they do not use the visual process editor.

In terms of deployment, the core of it is SaaS, and you still have some internal servers. It's never 100% SaaS.

Going to a SaaS solution has eliminated some of the down times that we needed to install some of our patches. For our agent servers, we're able to create redundant servers so that we can take one down at a time and not involve any downtime. So far, the various upgrades that we received had extremely short outage durations of one or two minutes. The ability to stay up-to-date and current, both from a security standpoint and from an application enhancement standpoint or bug fixes, has been fabulous as compared to an on-prem solution, which would take a long project to upgrade. That's probably been the biggest benefit. Moving to a SaaS solution has a lot of advantages. When you're running factories and projects 24 hours a day and seven days a week, uptime is very important, and you try to minimize any downtime, even planned downtime.

It has dramatically reduced the time and effort that our organization spends on deployment, updates, and maintenance. With our other application, it would be a six-month project to do a major upgrade. So far, with the upgrades that have been done by Redwood, the downtime is only for a few minutes. There is a gigantic difference.

We're pretty heavy into SAP. They have a good SAP interface where we're able to create and utilize jobs even from SAP, which gives us some additional features. It's about the same on the other applications that are simply running command-type batch jobs, but the SAP interface gives us a lot of flexibility. Some of it's similar to what we already had, but it has a positive impact on us.
