"This solution enables us to improve our daily processing times. We can do everything faster than before we used this solution."
"We don't have to manually run things anymore. We can have the work that a team of 50 people would do, all inside of one platform."
"The initial setup is easy."
"It is a fairly stable solution."
"The solution is easy to manipulate and has good performance."
"The stability of the solution is good. We haven't experienced any bugs or glitches and we haven't had any crashes that I can recall."

"Ease of implementation for upgrades."
"The solution does not have a friendly subscription model because it forces users to take a five-year subscription simultaneously, charging millions of dollars."
"I am not sure whether it is our limitation or a tool limitation because we haven't yet explored it, but whenever we look for different types of reporting, we have some limitations in getting those. It could be because of the way we have set it up internally in our enterprise, but it would be helpful if we can customize the reporting features and some of the alerts that can go out. When we connect enterprise systems, each one looks for a different use case, and if we can get different types of reporting, it will be helpful."
"The GUI/Workstation is weak and needs to be improved. CA is working on this right now."
"I would like to see two-factor authentication, since you see a lot of companies in the news for security breaches. That is a really big thing for us."
"CA installation processes are never anything but complex."
"To make it a lot more user-friendly, in order to make it so other people can use it without having to do much training with it; the more user-friendly it is, the easier it is to work with."
"The technical support could be improved by removing delays in response times. They should be able to get back to clients faster."
"We have difficulties manipulating the agent for Windows."
