Pros

"There is a very good approval hierarchy in place."
"Ivanti Automation significantly simplifies IT infrastructure processes, handling access requests and facilitating various employee requests."
"It's easy for the IT admins at the company to use. It isn't hard to understand and there are lots of features you can use out of the box. If a feature isn't available in Ivanti Automation, you can always script it."
"As an integrator of Operations Orchestration, we find that the most valuable feature is really the support that HP provides."
"It has reduced the time taken to go to market. In the past, we were struggling with building these integrations, but now the process has sped up and there is an added advantage of quick delivery. In addition, it is an agent-less solution, which provides more flexibility in terms of multiple options."
"In my environment, if I want to shut down all tools in one shot, I can create a workflow and run the workflow to shut down all tools in one go."
"It has made the implementation of our IT software policies faster."
"The automation, hands down, is the future of our company and the direction we're going in, letting us deploy servers in 15 minutes instead of two weeks and even embed monitoring into that same automated service for a huge benefit."
"We have saved few million dollars with OO."
"This tool addresses all our disparate capabilities, bringing all those systems together, so we have been able to orchestrate per product and tie those things together to automate processes that were manual in the past, allowing us to turn around systems a lot quicker and in a repeatable way."
"The community is very powerful, with extensive knowledge bases available."
 

Cons

"Ivanti Automation should deliver more fixed templates for standard use cases or standard procedures."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."
"The user interface could be more futuristic and modernized in terms of styling and colors."

"It's not a perfect solution, such as with the customization prompts."
"We have had some issues with memory usage, but that's something that we beefed up and made the system more robust."
"However, if we need help with a problem on our own, it's difficult to get the right support."

"I would like to see a bit more in the UX. It needs to be a bit more up-to-date."
"There were a lot of scalability issues that we initially faced; whenever I tried to deploy 100-200 endpoints, it became a huge challenge."
"Customer service is one of those areas that definitely needs to be improved. 3.5 out of 10 Technical Support: Needs improvement."
"If you're running it in a Windows environment, you're tied to the inefficiency and quirkiness of Windows."
