Redwood BPA at BRG Sports
- It allows us to run tasks in parallel, unlike the standard scheduler in SAP.
- We are able to trigger processes based on external events, like the arrival of a file
- It can let us know when processes have failed so that we don't need to actively monitor the batch cycle.
- It can also notify when a process has been completed successfully...users can be immediately made aware when one of their important tasks has finished.
- You can access the system securely from any device that has a browser, so you don't need to be in the office in order to check things.
- I don't have an answer here. The way it is, the system is easy to use and does exactly what we need.

Automation is the Future!
- standardizes activities
- less dependency on manual intervention
- redeploy employees in more added value activities
- increases quality
- more flexibility on changes
- make design more user friendly
- Upgrades are fast and can be done in a "lights-out" manner
- The ability to organize functions into applications is very helpful
- Events such as a file watcher to kick off a process when a file is detected are done very well
- The documentation is lacking severely, many times even leading to a suggestion of paying for professional services to figure out processes. Also not updating documentation when a new release makes the old documentation obsolete.
- AS400/iSeries has been a constant battle since inception, once an update fixes one thing, another seems to break within the AS400/iSeries space, and sometimes the fixes don't actually fix the issue. Over time now this has gotten much beter.
- Allowing an issue to go back and forth within a ticket countless times (sometimes over 40 responses) without just getting everyone together on a meeting. Update - this has gotten much better with time.
- Communication needs a lot of improvement. I have had to reach out to support just to get release notes when a new release is made available.
- The ability to get accurate counts of historical process runs is limited currently to 35 days and since you are billed for each process run in all environments, not just Production, this limits accountability in historical billing inquiries.

Stop wasting time and money, go with the best.
- SAP Batch Scheduling - This is THE BEST tool for triggering SAP jobs, bar none.
- User management- Other scheduling tools make it much more difficult to manage user access. Redwood user access management is a breeze and take less than half the time it take in other products.
- Scheduling Flexibility- The ease with which you can make custom time windows with Redwood is one of my favorite pluses. You can build as simple or as complex of a time window as you need to with Redwood.
- Support- The support that you get from Redwood is in my opinion the best in the world. I have dealt with all the big name players in IT and they all pale in comparison to Redwood. You will never feel like you are in it alone with the best support in the world right at your fingertips.
- I get asked what improvements can be made and honestly I think its a perfect tool. It is the best scheduling tool I have used and I have been in the business for 25 years. If there were any improvements to be made, chances are the development team is already working on them before I even knew I wanted it.

RMJ support
- Tracking job status.
- Reporting on jobs status.
- Alerting of status.
- Support documentation - Some basic information not found and some is outdated.
- Availability of support - Slow to respond.
- Knowledge of initial support. Basic problems have to be forwarded to next level support.
