Currently, I have switched to negotiating through third-party vendors for licensing, which has made it more expensive. Broadcom should address this by dealing directly with customers again. Licensing fees have increased as they charge based on executions rather than user agents, causing higher costs. Technical support also involves third-party interactions, complicating direct assistance from Broadcom.
AppWorx Workload Automation does not support mainframe environments, which limits its use for larger and older organizations like ours that still rely on mainframes.

Currently, we download a client file from a URL and set up the master. I'd like to see a return to the previous functionality where we could just enter the URL in the browser, and the entire master setup would appear. The current setup process can be a bit much for users, especially since they have to create a new setup for each master. This can make them hesitant and uneasy. Other than that, I don't find any issues with AppWorx. It's a good tool.
If there is a time out that happens at the tool's end, then we, as users of the product, are not able to login to the GUI. Recently, my company faced an issue where we were not able to log into the product's GUI, and the reason was that the database session got logged out at the DB's end. After AppWorx released the aforementioned session, the users in my company were able to log in to the product. With the tool, I did not face any major issues which required escalations.

This solution could be improved in the areas of reporting, forecasting, and intelligence. In addition, the portability and deployment, artificial intelligence and machine learning, whether it's integrated or embedded, could also be improved. These things would help me to know the SLAs for when a job will end.

The scalability could improve.
We are looking for additional features that would allow us to call APIs and integrate the product with other tools more effectively.
