    CA Workload Automation is well suited for firms having to manage and monitor multiple applications operating in multiple environments. and having SLA requirements. CA Workload Automation is less appropriate and not cost-effective for non-critical applications and/or jobs. CA Workload Automation is ideal for companies that require reliable and stable Production support for their business critical jobs to finish on time.

    Best suited for applications where installing from scratch is not an option or a very difficult one. Migrating applications that you are familiar with, you have support for or have done in the past, via AppZero, in my experience, may become more time/resource consuming. In my environment it makes little sense for example to migrate an Office Suite via AppZero. Good at collapsing tiers (e.g. old application whose demand has waned and it no longer needs to serve large number of users). The score is awarded is a bit misleading, AppZero is invaluable when you have no other choice but for mainstream applications its value drops.

    Pros
    Broadcom
    • All batch jobs can be monitored from one dashboard.
    • Provides detailed error logs.
    • We have developed packages to invoke OIC integrations through Autosys.
    • Notifications is a good feature when job fails or runs beyond cutoff time.

    • When documentation regarding the implementation of an application is missing (e.g. old versions and support is prohibitive to obtain, or in case of homegrown applications) it becomes the tool available to perform the migration.
    • There is always a back-out option, and different approaches/attempts can be made.
    • Will provide you insight on what otherwise would be a "blackbox" application.
    • Allows you to consolidated multi-tiered applications into fewer/single tiers.

    • I'd like to see a more streamlined migration of applications relying on SQL.
    • I'd like to see better documentation, or perhaps labs/examples available.

    We selected CA Workload Automation for the ease of integration and less time to setup. It has less overhead to manage the application and is a very robust application.

    • It has certainly proved to be a worthwhile investment. There were cases where to migrate an application several versions behind with lapsed support would've been a many zeroes expense. Done via AppZero, it was a LOT cheaper.
