Find out what your peers are saying about BMC, Tidal Software by Redwood, Redwood Software and others in Workload Automation."I prefer AutoSys over the other ones out there for ease of use, ease of understanding, and getting people to understand how the tool works."
"It can run an object on our Windows systems or our Unix systems, and then send messages to the other system when they are complete."
"We use technical support all the time. We would be lost without them. They're fantastic. Really good job. We're able to reach the right person to help us out right away."
"It works constantly and is pretty seamless. You do not have to open up many support tickets."
"The most valuable feature of AutoSys Workload Automation is batch processing."
"The ability to create calendars, calendering for batch jobs to run on a scheduled frequency."
"Running anything in crontab, you need to put a lot of logic into it to make it work. With this product, you don't have to worry about it. You have the schedule object where you put all the dates or holidays in it, and it does it for you."
"We get better reports than we use to have."
"Easy to set up, it doesn't require a lot."
"In terms of what should be in the next release, I want integration and AI and so on. I'd like easy reporting where you can compare information, for example, "that job normally takes three minutes and last time it took six minutes or 10 minutes." Then you can get the information to the engineer of which job is taking more time than normal - understanding strange behavior compared to the baseline."
"Some of the reports are either a bit hard to understand or don’t give you what you might expect to see."
"SQL server clustering is not supported."
"Performance improvements in the UI would be appreciated."
"The reporting system, currently, could be better."
"They could do better supporting it. They have too many of the same type of products, so sometimes it doesn't get as much attention as it should."
"AutoSys Workload Automation could improve in the Linux environment. The previous versions of the AutoSys Workload Automation let you take the profile of the user that you were using to run the tasks that you're going to automate, but in the latest versions, you can't do that, you need to make more definitions and it's a little bit difficult. It was easier in the previous versions."
"The solution does not have a friendly subscription model because it forces users to take a five-year subscription simultaneously, charging millions of dollars."
"The interface needs some improvements."
