VMware Aria Automation integrates and automates tasks to reduce provisioning time and enhance deployment cycles through high scalability and flexibility. While supporting customization, it lacks integration with Google Cloud and Azure. The complex upgrade process and challenging initial setup deter users, who face high pricing and maintenance demands. Despite automating security processes, the platform involves effort-intensive scaling and customization, prompting considerations of alternative platforms with better cost structures and support.
