Any large business or organisation that wants to manage their workload effectively and with the least amount of room for error might choose the ActiveBatch Automation tool. Being a consultant I feel that It aids in task automation and has the flexibility to change in response to varying company requirements. It helps to save huge time by doing all the repetitive tasks on daily basis. During the patching activity the schedulers can be stopped. It also help by alerting us if any system/job is down so that SLA can be saved. Overall ActiveBatch Automation stands as a dependable cornerstone for ensuring the seamless operation of our tasks.

• It helps in Ticket Inflow analysis (both qualitative and quantitative) and provides Prescriptive, Predictive, and Descriptive insights, and correlates large volumes of information
• It is also majorly useful as Automation opportunity finder. Helps delivery engagements to understand their current process baselines and Automation maturity level, and identify Automation and Optimization opportunities and potential benefits
• Project health check prediction. It helps in predicting the overall status of projects for the required timeline and also recommends past issues faced by similar project and respective actions taken.

• Businesses can use ActiveBatch to plan tasks based on parameters like frequency, dependencies, and the time of day. By automating typical actions like backups and data transfers, businesses can make sure that crucial operations go off without a hitch.
• Multiple systems and apps can be used in complicated workflows that ActiveBatch can automate. For instance, it can automate a workflow for processing orders from beginning to end, from the customer order through inventory control and delivery through the processing of invoices and payments.
• Files can be sent between many platforms and systems safely with ActiveBatch. Transfers to cloud-based storage systems like Amazon S3 and Microsoft Azure are also included in this. SFTP and FTP transfers are also included.

• It can improve in its integration capabilities. Currently we can integrate it with any Ticketing tool but usually it takes time due to many intricacies and this can be improved.
• For few graphs and chart categories, we do not have the option to see the related incidents for that graphs. This is a drawback currently and I have been notified that its been worked upon and will be available in coming versions.
• With huge amount of data it gets slow sometimes

• On RARE occasions, have seen scheduling properties changed that don't take effect.
• Simpler to understand/more robust reporting options would be nice to have.
• Maybe I'm missing something, but why doesn't the Instances view show completion time? Just execution time and duration.

We can easily add new plans/jobs in our batch schedules. Also, coordination with reporting and QA jobs is simple to do. Building schedules, restarting jobs, triggering dependencies is easy to understand. The system is very stable and allows us to easily see overall processing times.

• I have not run numbers to determine hard impact, but a quick estimate is that at least one job is running for a average of about 6 hours per day - that 6 hours, if done by hand, would equate to about 30 - 40 hours per day (and in some cases, could not be duplicated manually, as the job repeats faster than a person could accomplish one cycle.)
