Powerful automation tool with a slight learning curve
Reviewed on Oct 10, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most is how consistent and repeatable our server provisioning and deployments have become using YAML playbooks. It handles both Linux and Windows environments smoothly, and integrating it into our existing CI/CD pipelines was relatively straightforward. The collection support and built-in modules save our team countless hours compared to writing custom shell scripts from scratch.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve for writing clean, scalable roles and playbooks can be pretty steep for junior team members. Additionally, troubleshooting failed tasks across massive enterprise inventories can sometimes require digging through dense logs, and the licensing cost can be restrictive if you are scaling up a smaller team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In our environment, we use Ansible heavily for automating server patch jobs and pulling critical system telemetry for our AIOps platform. It eliminates manual intervention across large-scale infrastructure, ensuring timely security patching and compliance. Fetching real-time telemetry helps our event-correlation systems spot anomalies early, reducing downtime and lowering MTTR across our operations.

Efficient Automation with Some Learning Curves
Reviewed on Apr 17, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simplicity of Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. It doesn't require an agent on the servers, just SSH, which makes management much easier. I also appreciate that the playbooks in YAML are easy to read and maintain. Additionally, using playbooks to automate tasks eliminates repetitive tasks, allowing me to make changes on all servers at once instead of connecting to each one manually.
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance with very large inventories can be slow. Also, the learning curve for the Automation Controller is steep for small teams. The complicated part was setting up the Automation Controller and the dynamic inventories, which took several days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform to automate server configuration, mass patching, and deployments, eliminating repetitive tasks. Before, we had to manually connect to each server, now we do it all at once with a playbook.

Powerful Linux Automation with Ansible and Fast Red Hat Support
Reviewed on Mar 20, 2026
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
The automation part is very useful in Ansible specially for Linux. Being a push based tool we can use this tool as frequently we require because now we can only push the updates when required. The Customer Support is also good since the tickets from Red Hat are replied very fast
What do you dislike about the product?
The Migration from old Ansible tower to the new Ansible version like AAP is very complex.
Since now the latest Ansible version runs on containerized Environment Engineers require to have knowledge on containerized envroinment like docker and podman

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The Automation part is very usedful earlier with tools like chef was based on pull based becuase of which engineers had to wait for the pull to be executed.
But now with ansible once any update is available we can push the updates as and when required.

Consistent, Scalable Automation That Boosts Stability and Efficiency
Reviewed on Dec 20, 2025
Review provided by G2
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most is how Ansible Automation Platform gives us a consistent way to automate tasks across differnet environments. Instead of everyone writing their own scripts, we can have a centralized, controlled approach that keeps things uniform and reduces errors.
Cloud services, on‑prem servers, or network devices, Ansible connects to everything without needing any agents. This flexibility has made it much easier to scale automation across the organization stacks.
Also, its write once-reuse anywhere motoo help us reuse across multiple projects or environments. This not only speeds up deployments but also ensures the same process runs the same way every time, which has noticeably improved our operational stability.

What do you dislike about the product?
Even though YAML is readable, getting comfortable with writing playbooks, structuring roles, and understanding best practices takes time. My new team members have often needed guidance before they can contribute effectively in our platform.
May be few cases where they struggeled are role structuring, output capturing and reusing andYAML Sensitivity are more prone to error.
UI is helpful, but it introduces extra complexity compared to using Ansible alone. Managing inventories, credentials, and job templates through the controller sometimes feels more complicated than necessary.
These are just my experiences, others may feel it easy though if the have already used CFT or TF.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
First and foremost, It helps us cut down on a lot of manual work. Tasks that used to take hours—like setting up servers or applying patches, confuring predefined softwares like datadog agent, awscli, python etc etc—now run automatically in the background, which saves time and reduces mistakes. It also keeps everything consistent across our systems, so we don’t end up with different configurations causing issues later. Because it works with many types of environments, we can manage everything from one place instead of juggling multiple tools. Overall, it makes our day‑to‑day operations run smoother and help us the team focus on more important tasks or improvements/advancements instead of repetitive tasks that goes on endlessly.

What do you like best about the product?
What I like best is the agentless architecture and human readable YAML playbooks. The platform scales from simple tasks to enterprise wide orchestration without added complexity
What do you dislike about the product?
Performance can be quite unpredictable at scale. For example, large inventories with complex fact gathering can cause slow execution times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ansible eliminates repetitive manual tasks, reducing human error and freeing up IT staff to focus on strategic initiatives rather than routine maintenance.
