Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use. It isn't hard to understand and there are lots of features you can use out of the box. If a feature isn't available in Ivanti Automation, you can always script it."

"Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests."

"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Automation is the opportunity to use more or less any kind of scripting software."

"There is a very good approval hierarchy in place."

"In my environment, if I want to shut down all tools in one shot, I can create a workflow and run the workflow to shut down all tools in one go."

"The community is very powerful, with extensive knowledge bases available."

"The product is good functionality-wise. I am impressed with the tool's flexibility in customization."

"It's very stable. If you ask me for the success rate metrics, it's more than 90% for both."

"It has reduced the time taken to go to market. In the past, we were struggling with building these integrations, but now the process has sped up and there is an added advantage of quick delivery. In addition, it is an agent-less solution, which provides more flexibility in terms of multiple options."

Cons

"Ivanti Automation should deliver more fixed templates for standard use cases or standard procedures."

"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."

"Their cloud relay feature needs to improve to compete with other products in cloud solutions like Azure and AWS. It should be easier to deploy or provision images in the cloud with Ivanti Automation. Better Azure integration would also help."

"I would prefer the addition of ready-made workflows for common scenarios such as Oracle database switchovers or Exchange server scenarios."

"There were a lot of scalability issues that we initially faced. Whenever I tried to deploy 100-200 endpoints, it became a huge challenge. We had to actually start using other tools like Tivoli Endpoint Management in order to patch the issues."

"The tool's UI needs to be improved. It needs to have better administration features in future releases."

"The price is an area that should be addressed because the price is high."

"Only the tool's support can be a drawback where improvements are needed."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My customers do direct sales with Ivanti, and they complain that Ivanti Automation is more expensive than other solutions."

"The tool is expensive. I rate the tool a six if one is cheap and ten is very expensive."

"I do not have experience with the pricing or licensing of the product."

"The cost is very high compared to anything else available."
