We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product provides efficiency, in terms time, cost, and resources.""It can support very complex environments and dependencies.""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.""Gives people insight into what's happening during the deployment.""We have saved on our time costs and have seen more quality.""Self-service for developers, because they are able to deploy to development departments on their own, without needing people from operations.""It is an umbrella system that allows us to integrate many different systems into our heterogeneous environment.""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."

"CDD is primarily used for showing end users (managers, business teams, project managers, and release managers) what is happening with each release. The status and reporting features are very important. Automation reduces time to deploy. It also allows us to do more with releases and testing prior to production, better guaranteeing a smooth deployment.""The second valuable aspect is its capability to drive external systems like deployment automation engines or to integrate with Agile Central.""The most valuable features of Automic Continuous Delivery Director are the UI, release planning, and tracking, and you can do your soft and hard freeze through CDP.""The most valuable feature for me is the fact that you can easily design a pipeline to promote applications from a development environment up to a production environment, and the team can become autonomous in designing those pipelines.""Its extensive range of available connectors eliminates the need for manual code writing when implementing solutions, thus reducing coding efforts.""Its ability to automate release deployments, streamline release scope, and reduce the cost of and time for deployment."

Cons
"The stability of the solution can be improved.""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.""key thing is support for cloud-based deployment. That is lacking.""There is an issue with the stability in the tool. The process of agent will stop, then the monitoring agent can't be recognized because the process is running, but you can talk with the system.""We hope that we can integrate the new CD Directive into our portfolio, so we can bring the deployment and release management closer together.""GUI for mobile phones: Availability to approve and start deployment through mobile phones.""I would like to see more support for WebSphere.""There needs to be better error handling and error descriptions. It should be more clear what the errors are and what we can do to fix them."

"Reporting and dashboarding could be improved. Release pipelines should be creatable via templates as well as easily integrable/chained together. Visual navigation could also be improved when the pipelines become too large.""We have rolled out the SAFe model, but what we would like to have is better integration with Agile Central, for instance, or at least at the plugin level, where we would select only certain stories instead of many stories in the sprint.""Automic Continuous Delivery Director can improve the integrations. We have 25 but would like more.""The product's development has been stopped. It focuses on maintaining existing products.""We would like to have a more user-friendly interface. It is already very friendly, but as soon as you start to have many applications with many tasks, the applications should be easier to manipulate on the screen.""CDD and RA should be two modules in the same product. They do not automatically “talk” to each other. and they require endpoint definition."
