| Author info | Rating | Review Summary |
|---|---|---|
| System Manager at State Bank of India | 5.0 | I use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for provisioning and compliance automation, which improves efficiency and patching cycles, though reporting could be better for distributed setups. Overall, it's stable, effective, and I rate it a 10. |
| System Analyst II at a energy/utilities company with 1,001-5,000 employees | 3.5 | As a system analyst managing Windows patching, I find BMC TrueSight Server Automation valuable for standardizing deployments and accessing server information. However, it struggles with resource management, increases workloads, and our monthly patching processes are overly time-consuming. |
| AM at a computer software company with 201-500 employees | 4.0 | I use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for patching and vulnerability management. It simplifies deployment with one-click patching, though the interface could be improved. Despite occasional fluctuations, it remains stable and handles automation well. |
| Cloud Services Automation Technologies Manager at Garanti Teknoloji | 4.0 | We use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for server automation to configure endpoints efficiently, including application and database servers. While the solution is stable, we faced reporting issues, and the output's format needs improvement, requiring backend information gathering before execution. |
| Solution Architech at a computer software company with 201-500 employees | 4.5 | I primarily use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for patch deployment and vulnerability management. It's powerful with GUI and CLI options but needs agentless operations and built-in vulnerability scanning. It excels in functionality, scalability, and platform diversity compared to competitors. |
| TrueSight Server Automation Consultant at Vyom Labs | 4.5 | I use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for our multi-server environments for disaster recovery and maintaining process uptime. Its valuable features include provisioning, compliance, patching, and integration. Improvement is needed in cloud deployment and connectivity options. |
| Datacenter & Infrastructure Senior Engineer at BMB | 4.5 | I use BMC TrueSight Server Automation for tasks like patching and compliance checks. It excels in patch automation but lacks features for exporting data to Excel and handling containers. Ansible playbook integration would enhance its functionality. |
| Senior Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees | 4.5 | We use BMC TrueSight Server Automation primarily for tasks like patching, script execution, and server compliance checks. While it excels in automated patching and integration with vulnerability management, it struggles with large data retrieval and lacks container patching capabilities. |
