Easy automation!

  • April 13, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to deploy, configure and use this within Linux. Overall, the time to get up and running and executing the first job against a set of Linux servers was almost no time. We were able to start running script and automating the more simple tasks on Day 1 while we started working on the larger, more complex projects.
The support team, as well as the implementation teams are both wonderful. Our rep was always available and eager to assist us rapidly deploy. The few times I have had to reach out to the support team, they have been responsive and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup for running against Windows hosts (using a Linux install of Rundeck) was somewhat complicated. The online help also tends to be less helpful than I need to resolve an issue. Which has led to us having to rely on the support team more often, who again, has been wonderful.
The security, for someone who is very used to the role/group system, seems overly complicated, and cumbersome to implement, although very secure once complete.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation of the same task against multiple hosts. Just the ability to run a single command against the entire set of servers in seconds is outstanding.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd say to go for it!

Automation with Ease, Control, and Security

  • April 13, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to take customized and sometimes complex automation needs and put them within a UI that a semi-technical end user/customer can utilize. It gives you the ability to control what gets run, by whom, and how. Additionally, it gives you the ability to control access and audit who did what and when.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is difficult to build and use a clustered HA solution after you have already started utilizing the product in a non-clustered environment: a migration is essentially an entirely new implementation. Also keep in mind, Rundeck is a UI for automation, but it does not provide all of that custom automation. Your teams need to build the underlying scripts, make them efficient, and build the UI within Rundeck complete with editable fields, user access control, logging, and auditing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Filling gaps in our custom product for internal reporting, and safe/secure DML/DDL automation in parallel with code deployments.

What do you like best about the product?
What I like most is that it is multiplatform. What I least like is that it should be less complicated to access windows services. Easy installation and integration with unix like systems
What do you dislike about the product?
What I least like is that it should be less complicated to access windows services.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I created jobs to restart important services on some servers, removing the need for employees to login to the servers.

Very good experience

  • December 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best is the simplicity, documentation and easy configuration.
Very rarely I came across a bug and got a quick reply when reporting it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The listing of nodes that is selected when running a job is good but would could be improved. A way of grouping them would be good (based on a tag or a new node property field for example) .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This was really helpful for the 2nd level support that was able to automate some routine work on the systems.
It was also useful to shutdown applications that spawn across multiple servers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The benefits for automation are very high for the small amount administrative cost to maintain Rundeck in your infrastructure.
