"The graphical interface can be improved."
"Reduce the number of operational files. This would make the job of a system programmer supporting ESP easier."
"We are trying to see if we can use this from a cloud perspective with AWS, Azure, and other clouds, but it seems that there is no cloud integration in this product. We would like to see cloud integration. We are very pleased with this solution, but we are moving our application to the cloud, and we found out that it doesn't support any cloud features. So, we are trying to find a replacement."
"AutoSys Workload Automation could improve the integration."
"There is a difference between a web interface and the thick client interface. We particularly like a thick client interface, and it has gone away."
"Quick search feature and job analysis could be improved."
"The GUI/Workstation is weak and needs to be improved. CA is working on this right now."
"The solution does not have a friendly subscription model because it forces users to take a five-year subscription simultaneously, charging millions of dollars."
"Lacks integration with the hyperscalers."
"It would be beneficial if some features were built into the platform rather than requiring integration with multiple products, reducing complexity and licensing concerns."
"If you use it for a lot of customers, it is too heavy for this solution."
"vRealize Orchestrator is an expensive tool."
"Technical support is something that we've had problems with in the past. Across all the VMware solutions we have not always had the best response from support. To be fair a lot of the issues that came up for us have been quite niche but it seems that in terms of release cycles they introduced a lot of bugs and it's a lot of stuff that support generally has to work quite hard on. There have been cases when we've logged critical priority issues and not had responses in time. I think support is something that can be worked on."
"I would like to see mode accessory recovery and integration with SD-WAN."
"The solution's installation is difficult, and you need somebody with the solution's knowledge to do the installation."
"Improvements could be made in the building feature since there isn't a real building feature associated with the product. We require a building feature to integrate with other solutions."
