Useful multiple scheduler, centralized batch view, and reliable
There are approximately seven connectors for enterprises. This vendor doe snot has a lot of competition in the market. I recommend beginning with AI as it will provide us with a comprehensive understanding of your batches as a whole. If there are other participations or downstream processes involved, we can integrate them with AI, creating a centralized hub for your engineer batch, both downstream and upstream. I rate Automic Automation Intelligence an eight out of ten.

Future-proof and powerful with great support
Improvements include: 1) Cost of the Software. Redwood is more expensive than most of the other Automation Software available today; they could make it budget-friendly. 2) It has limited reporting features. Some basic reporting features are missing. 3) There is no option to extract data in Excel. This feature could help in finding errors in the data. 4) Integration with ServiceNow is not supported. 5) The cloud platform compatibility is not up to the mark. 6) Security standards need to be improved. 7) Handling failure is not great; the workflow stops when a job fails and human intervention is required. 8) Configuration and set-up are difficult for someone with less coding knowledge. 9) They need to provide more documentation to assist new users.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Action Packs are a good feature."
"The most valuable feature of Automic Automation Intelligence is the ability to see all of the batches from one place. Additionally, there is a multiple scheduler that is useful."
"The tool's online manuals and documentation are good. Its user interface is user-friendly."
"With automation in place, employees can focus on more strategic tasks that require human expertise, increasing overall productivity."
"This program works with every browser."
"Its monitoring and alerting features are what I found the most valuable."
"The automated alert response is very useful for long-running and failed jobs during off-business hours."
"It's a very powerful tool. It has a lot of flexibility for how you can define jobs and build them. There are different ways in which you can construct jobs depending on your specific needs and requirements."
"We can achieve anything that anything that we would like to do. In SAP, it's not generally possible with just with SAP. So we have solution manager as an option, but run by job."
"Redwood is more flexible and we can schedule the tasks based on different time zones."
"Redwood RunMyJobs has been very useful for job scheduling and checking and monitoring jobs."
 

Cons

"The solution could benefit by having more connectors and customized widgets. Additionally, a dashboard that people could use for videos would be helpful."
"Integration of the solution could be improved."
"The job reporting feature needs improvement."
"There is a lack of resources and product documentation which, if included, would help to gain more knowledge about the application."
"The product could be better in terms of its monitoring and alert service."
"We need the ability to pull data into an Excel format."
"The addition of machine learning capabilities could help Redwood Workload Automation Software better predict job and workflow performance, detect anomalies, and optimize operations based on historical data."
"The job log has a size limit."
"We'd like to see an integration with ServiceNow to raise the tickets/incidents in ServiceNow."
"The solution should have more focus on security standards."
"The user interface of Redwood can be improved a bit to make it more user-friendly and interesting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Automic Automation Intelligence's licensing costs are expensive and can be yearly or monthly."
"The price of Automic Automation Intelligence depends on the connectors used. For example, if you wanted to connect to Dell BMC, you would need a connector."
"It initially surprised me because we went from an application that was priced by connection to agents/the number of agents to an application that was priced based on the number of job executions. At that time, many of the products we looked at were also priced on job execution. That seems to be more common in the business or in the vendors that provide solutions out there, but that was probably our biggest difference."
