Rocket DevOps vs. Userlane

Rocket Aldon is perfect for simple changes to traditional IBM i development using RPGLE, CL, and DDS. It is great for finding related objects that are referenced in many locations and helping recompile all of these objects. However, Aldon has a particularly hard time with SQL views. For some reason, it is determined to lock every table related to a view even though this is not required by the operating system. Whenever one view references another view, you are always in danger of losing a view permanently if you didn't check it out and promote it. To clarify, imagine you created a view CUSTOMER_INFO. Then you make another view called CUSTOMER_SHIPMENTS that joins the CUSTOMER_INFO to a shipping table. If you ever change CUSTOMER_INFO and then promote it, there is a good chance that Aldon will delete the CUSTOMER_SHIPMENTS view and you will not get a single warning. It doesn't happen every time but when it does you are going to have a real mess on your hands.

Well suited:

• Web-based software with many users, complex processes (or both) --> Easy to fix a lot of common support / training issues very fast
• Software rollouts with high costs associated to ensure user acceptance is great --> Great feedback from users
• Multiple applications where processes are adjusted regularly --> Fast to roll out across many apps and easy to maintain

Not so well suited:

• Desktop apps -- > Doesn't really work for desktop
• Mobile apps --> Limited support, only works for web-based mobile apps
• Small user base (less than 50 users) --> Not required when there are only a few users

• Allows flexibility for user groups
• Scripting for releasing of code
• Ease of comparing code versions within the tool

Support is hit and miss. Sometimes they give some great assistance and sometimes they are no help at all. It always seems like they can't replicate the problem but then they never try to get on our system to do deeper research. It's kind of frustrating dealing with them. Also, the website isn't that helpful.

Aldon provides needed functions for our current implementations and legacy systems. As we move toward modernization, we are going to look at alternatives from reviewing cost, integration capabilities and functionality
