Overall Satisfaction with Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform

We use Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform to allow for ease of access to playbooks written and maintained by the engineers on our team. This allows for other teams to make easy use of the work done by them in creating and maintaining playbooks. We also use it as a means to schedule jobs to run, such as patching, for windows of time where it isn't reasonable for people to be in office.
  • Scheduled workflows
  • Handling failures in workflows
  • Logs playbook output for future review
  • I actually think they accomplish all the things within my needs quite well.
  • Ease of use has made it so more users are able to take advantage of the playbooks that engineers have created.
Ansible products are the only ones my team makes use of so I don't have anything to compare.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL)
Patching has been a great use for our team. We also like to use it for building fresh virtual machines to ensure they are STIGd. We don't have a specific place where Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform seems to have issues. Most problems tend to be less tech savvy users failing to understand how to leverage the tool effectively.
