Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's very stable. If you ask me for the success rate metrics, it's more than 90% for both.""It has reduced the time taken to go to market. In the past, we were struggling with building these integrations, but now the process has sped up and there is an added advantage of quick delivery. In addition, it is an agent-less solution, which provides more flexibility in terms of multiple options.""The product is good functionality-wise. I am impressed with the tool's flexibility in customization."

"The interface of the solution is very user friendly and it is easily accessible via a simple URL. This makes it easier to complete the UI based tasks but using other features require expertise in languages like Java. But along with that, there are limitation in terms of network connectivity testing and administrator faces regular challenges in conducting connectivity tests due to these limitations.""There are a lot of ready to use orchestration custom packs.""The iTerm suite is also crucial for visibility and optimization.""Employee onboarding, de-boarding, and other service-provision features make the process easier and it saves us a lot of time.""It's scalable.""It's probably the best product out there.""The data visualization is good.""The solution effectively automates business processes."

Cons
"There were a lot of scalability issues that we initially faced. Whenever I tried to deploy 100-200 endpoints, it became a huge challenge. We had to actually start using other tools like Tivoli Endpoint Management in order to patch the issues.""The tool's UI needs to be improved. It needs to have better administration features in future releases.""The price is an area that should be addressed because the price is high."

More OpenText Operations Orchestration Cons →

"There is still room for more integrations. Or, it would be nice to bundle multiple products together rather than selling everything as a model as that turns out to be a bit costly.""Efficiency of some features could be improved.""ServiceNow Orchestration needs to improve multiple aspects in which their event monitoring system is one. The solution lacks event monitoring systems which makes them non-competitive. They need to include improvements in a similar manner that they did in Sweden.""From my space, the only thing that I can say is the spinning up with Google Cloud Services.""The flow rate for releases and updates is very, very slow and does not meet customers' objectives for scalability.""The deployment requires awareness among the project staff.""The automatic remediation needs enhancement, particularly integrating ServiceNow with tools like SolarWinds and Logic Monitor. It is functional, but it needs improvement.""We cannot perform GUI automation using the tool."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I do not have experience with the pricing or licensing of the product."
  • "The cost is very high compared to anything else available."
  • More OpenText Operations Orchestration Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "In terms of price, this solution is at the higher end of what you'll find."
  • "This is an expensive product, but it is the best in the market considering the features and lack of competitors."
  • "ServiceNow doesn't give a clear cost indication. They have different contracts with different organizations and it's all about negotiation, so you don't know how they are doing at the cost level."
  • "The solution is costly and orchestrations are very expensive."
  • "It is quite expensive because we've had some customers come back and say it's quite pricey because in order for them to go ahead with Orchestration, they must have already been paying for Discovery, service mapping, and a few other things."
  • "The cost of the solution is based on the number of plugins, conductors and integrations used and is charged annually. The licensing cause has been increasing gradually which makes it difficult to access. Initially offer free features but over the time the charges rise which make it an expensive solution with limited features. Along with that, the integration issues persist and require additional middle where and internet connectivity for effective usage."
  • "It is not very expensive."
