Incredible for automating repeated tasks in consistent manner

Implementation has reduced workstation deployment, standardized our server configurations, and has simplified repetitive management tasks. Our team frequently uses Ansible in day-to-day tasks
What do you dislike about the product?
Ansible can be complicated for new users to start using and developing, but there is comprehensive documentation and plenty of resources online.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have many small networks that require identical configurations, and Ansible is vital to our ability to standardize these environments

Reduce operational errors, it is efficient.
What do you like best about the product?
How practical and intuitive it is, the community is very large and support is obtained very quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
What is practical and already has compatibility with various technologies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tool to automate patterns and repetitive tasks.
Ansible automation has been excellent at helping to automated basic operations tasks.
What do you like best about the product?
The platform has lots of documentation that makes it easy to find what I want and what I need. Once I have everything set up it is very easy to test the code that has been written.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times where finding the exact thing that I need is difficult and getting things to work the way I want just doesn't exist and needs to be created by hand either through custom modules, or using shell commands.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it easy to scale up to numerous servers when the actions that need to be performed across servers are the same.
Ansible Automation Platform for Improved System Management
What do you like best about the product?
RH AAP provides a simple and easy to use orchestrator and clustered deployment that allows for system management. It helped displace multiple other orchestration tools and streamline infrastructure management and provisioning
What do you dislike about the product?
AAP is built from the OSS community from a collection of multiple packages and contributions. This multi-layered build adds to management complexity and challenges with scaling to meet the demands of large enterprise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AAP has helped to solve complex push vs pull automation challenges providing an off-server solution that is agentless for deploying automation tasks .
Automate That Stuff!
What do you like best about the product?
AAP makes my life easier because I am a lazy engineer! If there is ever a configuration task that I have to do more than once, I use AAP to get it done. Even if I may only do something once, chances are there is a playbook for it, just incase I ever have to do it again.
What do you dislike about the product?
The disconnect between Hashi TF and AAP. These two products are awesome when used together and a tighter integration between them is not only a need, but it is mandatory!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AAP allows me to automate my environment, taking hours and days down to minutes. This, in turn, allows me to focus on novel problems and innovations.
Control config drift
What do you like best about the product?
We use it primarily to control configuration drift. A nightly run resets a lot of system settings to comply with internal standards
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not have any dislikes with the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
System owners change settings that make systems non-compliant. Ansible resets those settings
Ansible - the all purpose tool
What do you like best about the product?
The wide range of use cases that Ansible supports. Especially event driven automation with IT / OT monitoring solutions,
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much in the tool itself. I'd prefer the component name's didn't change every year...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every place a client desires to automate a process of respond to know conditions, Ansible has been the tool to deliver this capability.

What do you like best about the product?
The playbook and event-driven automations
What do you dislike about the product?
More tutorials can be provided for someone who is new.

The phrase "Manual workload and man in the loop processes" refers to tasks or operations that require human intervention or oversight. "Manual workload" indicates tasks that are performed by humans rather than automated systems. "Man in the loop processes" suggests processes where human decision-making or control is necessary, often to ensure accuracy, safety, or compliance.
