Stonebranch for newbies
What do you like best about the product?
Despite it being new to my knowledge, I was pretty surprised that it was very easy to use and understand.

The only cons I can see for now is the tool's inability to generate a comprehensive result in generating the jobs' definition/dependencies.

It meets the expectations of my streams/workflows based on how I wanted it to be designed.

Stonebranch is capable of scheduling complex workflow with restrictions. I like that it is gui-based and it is easier to drag the dependencies inside the workstream.

Forecasting a job in stonebranch can be improved. It is also quite difficult to export complex workflow dependency and not veryone is familiar with Stonebranch.

Great Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Stability and easy setup of agents on different servers. Gives the ability to manage the file transfer process in one central space which is very powerful and comfortable
What do you dislike about the product?
The update process is not automatized and needs the involvement of our team. We would appreciate having more user-friendly updates to avoid risk which is caused by involving the local team and increased human error.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have 12 different local and partner servers. We manage file transfers between these servers. The main goal is to collect data in our central Data Warehouse and provide info back to partners.
SB
What do you like best about the product?
stonebranch universal controller is used primarily as a scheduler for background jobs. it helped us to move jobs from SAP to one single place, which allows us to easily manage them. It gives us the opportunity to automatically create incidents with an API so no manual monitoring is required anymore. With custom-created reports we are able to provide required information to auditors. we're still learning about a tool and investigating the next automatization opportunities with stonebranch
What do you dislike about the product?
since the release of SB in our company i did not have any complaints about it;'s functionality, from my point of view it would be good to have some advanced analytics tool available to create more sufficient reports.

automatic creation of incidents for failed jobs instances

A great tool to orchestrate and automate our processes
What do you like best about the product?
Stonebranch helps us to orchestrate and automate business and IT processes. It ships a lot of types of tasks that we use to connect systems, cloud and databases. It's easy to deploy, manage and use. Stonebranch works on Windows, Linux, and it's a reliable and stable platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there is no type of task we need, but it has an interface to build new integrations. Eventually, you can publish it on Stonabranch's Integration Hub.
Although documentation is good, occasionally, there is a lack of information about some options.

Administrator of Stonebranch: Great Security Controls, Needs Updating on Auth Methods for Tasks
What do you like best about the product?
Stonebranch has a robust permissions system, which allows for granular control over almost every resource, combining that with easy integration with AD or LDAP, allows for efficient and easy centralized permissions management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Certain tasks only allow for basic auth. Given the current security climate around more robust authentication methods, it seems outdated not to have more modern authentication methods available by default.
One example is with the Email tasks, where only Basic Auth is available, which isn't even able to connect to O365 anymore since they have recently disabled it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Stonebranch allows us to have a robust and secure workload automation tool, with very little administrative overhead. The simple and intuitive layout allows end users to manage most of the resources independently, freeing up administrators' time and giving the end user the freedom and flexibility they desire.

The ease of being able to drill into workflows and understand/diagnose an issue with a job that has failed.
