Find out in this report how the two Process Automation solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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."
"It's very stable. If you ask me for the success rate metrics, it's more than 90% for both."
"The product's integration is good, it works well with other programs and solutions."
"The most valuable feature is that this solution is complete, and you don't need any add-ons."
"Because of the central management, the scripting engine and workflow engine are integrated with VMware without any burden to integrate different products."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The open, flexible architecture has brought in the agile computing environment along with better Dr capabilities. Automation management and operational tasks across VMware and third-party applications, like our HMIS and other business productivity applications, have delivered peace of mind."
"vCenter Orchestrator's best features are the workflows, integration with third-party applications, and the workflow library."
"The most valuable feature is affinity rules."
"The backup and recovery times are very quick."
"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 price is an area that should be addressed because the price is high."
"The tool's UI needs to be improved. It needs to have better administration features in future releases."
"It is too expensive. One of the main issues is the price."
"It is practically difficult at this stage to really comment on the improvisations of V central. But more tech events and PoC cases would help the EA to design better solutions and utilization."
"I would like to see, from within the Web Console, being able to define the project and custom templates per user; almost like how CloudSpec has approached the solution."
"The price of this product is high and could be improved."
"Its technical support team takes a long time to escalate the issues."
"I believe a transparent view and better terms of condition between Oracle and vCenter Orchestrator would be helpful."
"The licensing is expensive and should be improved."
"VMware tools would benefit from more automation. When installing our devices and servers, we often need to install the VMware tools manually. This process should be automated during the VM installation process."
