Overall Satisfaction with ActiveBatch
ActiveBatch is used by our organization to automate redundant tasks, both internally and externally. Many of our departments have 'jobs' they've created, to run processes that would normally occur during working hours. With ActiveBatch, these processes can now be set to 'trigger' at scheduled times throughout the day and throughout the night. This saves from having one person being assigned with running and managing the individual tasks. And since the jobs are scheduled, the processes can run during the weekends and holidays, saving employees time and the company money.
- Easy to automate mundane tasks. Take all those batch files spread across your environment and put them in one application for management.
- Good support site and knowledge base. If you run into issues, the support is quick to respond and assist with a resolution or advice.
- Additional 'extensions' (plug-ins) are available, to aid ActiveBatch with interfacing with other platforms (AWS, Sharepoint, IBM and VMWare).
- The manual could provide more examples of how to create certain jobs, otherwise you will need to check the site or call support to aid with creation.
- Dashboard presentation could be worked on, to help present an overview for management.
- Saves employees time and sanity, from having to manually run tasks at certain times.
- Cost is not overly expensive, considering the amount of platforms it integrates with "out of the box."
- Takes control of sensitive processes, and runs them confidentially. Alerts management when completed.
