In Redwood, we can easily check/track all the running jobs in the system at the same time if there is any failure/ error found we can resolve that with the help of their related SAP module functional member as well as also able to check the status of completed jobs on time.

It is easy to edit the scheduled job, but should be careful in selecting edit the recurrance or edit the current process. we can add as many queue of our choice to distinguish the connection between different objects like we have HCM queue, GTG queue, CRM queues etc which makes life easier for redwood user. for Jsox audit purpose every month we retrive failed job report through xml file and also can download any report of our choice. Most important feature is we can download joblog.log file which contains data information of a particular job run wheather it is for completed or killed job. So it will be easy for functional team to analyse the issue and work on it.

"Redwood software fulfills top level management functions." What do you like best about Redwood Software? Redwood tool does organising, monitoring, controlling, and scheduling all jobs and activities. Redwood software holds the overall control of work performance. In Redwood, we can configure all types of functional application jobs like PI, FI, MFG, SC, BW, BODS etc. Redwood also contains documentation of each job and its history and statistics. where all of these are limited in some other automation tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Redwood Software? Redwood has all new features and advanced technology. In redwood, we can run a job on an Adhoc basis or we can schedule a job for future dated runs. But we can't write a logic to run a job with past dates. As far as my opinion apart from this every other option in redwood works very well and runs our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We chose MarathonITE to automate our regression pack and it has immensely helped reducing the regression testing from 5 day cycle to a 3 day cycle.

Our entire MarathonITE test suite is in source control (TFS). With this, it is very easy to execute either part of or the entire test suite on multiple test machines in multiple environments. Between new releases of our software, I am able to press play on the test suite for a quick and thorough regression test. Following the completion of the tests, I am able to evaluate a test result report that MarathonITE builds. This report shows any individual tests that failed during execution which allows me to manually investigate why it failed. If you are looking to automate your Java/Swing application, I can attest that this tool will provide you adequate features and functionality. I am excited to see how MarathonITE’s software will improve in the near future.
