It is an open source platform for reviewing software options and we have access to all client feedback in order to plan ahead of time.It greatly assists me in my daily duties such as workload automation. It has a user friendly UI thus any non IT person can quickly get their hands on this software. It is compatible with various organizations and Active Batch may simply interact with other apps making it easy to access and automate all tasks across multiple platforms. The customer service team is fantastic allowing us to fix our issues in a timely manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
To make it more user friendly more extensive documentation and improvements to the UI are required.In comparison to other software the reporting capabilities are a little limited, which should be expanded with the help of IT specialists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have implemented ActiveBacth Workload automation to perform Automated Endpoint security scans on our severs and networks components to have a complete picture of the environment and the endpoints are secured or need and upgrade to reduce the surface area for attach by threat actors. It is a faster, more efficent and also reduces the error scope for not scanning the endpoints correctly and reporting it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The integration with our security monitoring tool was little hassel as it had little hiccups while integrating leading to confusions and frequent calls with customer support. They can probably make the integration simpler and also prvide detailed documentation to perform the integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Majorly i faced issues while creating and scheduling file transfer jobs in UC4 tool(which was asking for different host name, scripts , paths etc) . but where as when i started using activebatch things went smotther with managed file transfer, which moved files on time and more complex files were also transferred with ease. Also activebatch has advanced event trigger feature which allows to create or send small or huge files to any SFTP server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Annual recurring license for activebatch is quite high. apart from that it provides best service with easy to migrate jobs from any automation scheduler.

In our organization, we have integrated activebatch into our end-to-end automation, and we have made extensive use of the real-time analytics and alerting features, which have provided us with greater insight and allowed us to resolve issues before clients report them.

The documentation and initial setup were a little hazy; greater specifics and a few more video lectures would have greatly reduced our time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
