Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, GitLab, Red Hat and others in Release Automation."The main benefit is you can deploy everything with it."
"It can support very complex environments and dependencies."
"I think on a day-to-day basis, it has increased the capacity to deploy. We don't have to wait for someone to do something."
"It gives us good feedback on visualizations and on how our processes have progressed."
"The metrics gathered after deployment, for example, the rate of success versus the rate of failure."
"The event monitor is very good. You can monitor when the file is created so you can pick up the file once it's done."
"Self-service for developers, because they are able to deploy to development departments on their own, without needing people from operations."
"It provides a wonderful user interface which is easy to use."
"One standout aspect is its architecture. We can configure multiple instances on a single server using different system names or usernames."
"The CA Application Insight feature is the solution's most valuable aspect."
"The graphical view of when you're writing flow is the most valuable feature."
"If you have a technical problem and need development of the tool, the support team is terrible, because they cannot help with the technical details."
"I would like to see more support for WebSphere."
"At the moment, the version that we are using (version 12.0), the environment is complex with multiple installations. Therefore, the monitoring is not scalable, but this should be improved in 12.1 and 12.2."
"It would be very beneficial for us to see integrations into cloud environments, especially into the Google Cloud environment because we are heading towards cloud."
"key thing is support for cloud-based deployment. That is lacking."
"We hope that we can integrate the new CD Directive into our portfolio, so we can bring the deployment and release management closer together."
"The dashboard should allow you to see the current state of packages in each environment, not only on an individual application basis, but across the entire application platform."
"One of the biggest features I've been asked by my team to put in there is opening more scripting languages to be part of the platform. There is a little bit of a learning curve in learning how to code some of the workflows in Automic at this time. If widely used languages like Perl and Python were integrated, on top of what's already there, the proprietary language, it would make it easier to on-board new resources."
"In the next release, I would like to see more features to use active directory. And more rules to support more Python scripts and to work with Kubernetes and clouds, to have an easy solution for a lot of parameters."
"A concern with CA Release Automation is that Automic was acquired by CA recently. We're a bit concerned that CA strategy is going with Automic, that CA Release Automation is dead. They are not investing in it too much... They do say, that in the next two or three years we don't need to worry. They will still provide support for CA Release Automation. But we're not sure how CA Release Automation will evolve."
"The configuration of the solution is a bit difficult to maneuver. They should work to make it easier."
"It could use better integration with development tools."
"When I started using Nolio around eight months ago, a challenge was the lack of relevant information and related support for learning."
