ActiveBatch Pricing Overview

ActiveBatch is very effective when it comes to managing complex cross platform workflows. We apply it to automate our whole nightly ETL operation, to transfer data between systems consistently. The built-in Job Step Library is amazing; it offers pre-built integrations with different applications and technologies, such as the ability to connect simply to our cloud storage or database systems.

Though quite powerful, the interface of ActiveBatch may be slightly outdated and less user-friendly as compared to newer solutions, which will need some adaptation. Initial learning curve, particularly in advanced scripting and complex workflow design is quite steep. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most significant benefit to me is the ability to be in control of the routine operational jobs. I depend on it in managing data flows within our online store as it helps me send out such tasks as order files generation and periodic database maintenance scripts. The number of times I use it is very high because they are processes that are performed daily. The site has some robust features that ensure that I can specify job requirements and time constraints.

The only disadvantage that I have observed in the use of ActiveBatch Workload Automation is that sometimes it may be inconvenient to maintain older workflows. Our company created numerous job sequences in the first implementation and when it comes to reviewing them after several months, it is important to carefully check them as there are several steps intertwined.
