Network Computing judged process automation or run-book automation (RBA) products based on their usability, deployment, auditing and reporting, and pricing. In referring to Opsware, Network Computing states that �Opsware has a big advantage with its visually guided process engine. Opsware�s ability to produce a set of extremely polished documents that described all our processes was impressive.� Network Computing further praises Opsware, saying �Opsware�s business-intelligence dashboard is the leader of the pack. Incident, problem and change-management visibility are included out-of-box. Useful reports for MTTR trending, cumulative ROI, most frequent resolution flows and incident alerting are all there.� �Opsware Process Automation System stands out as a leader with a good balance of features and scalability,� said Michael Biddick, Contributing Editor at Network Computing. �Since Opsware also has configuration-management tools, there are some compelling synergies with configuration management across the network, application and storage infrastructure.

Its pre-built application and network-specific workflow can be a big help to organizations getting started in process automation.� Network Computing cites additional benefits, including �One unique feature we really liked is the ability to assign a dollar amount to individual workflow-process components. This is useful in an environment where IT charges for IT services.� �Network Computing�s real world comparative review clearly demonstrates the technical superiority and unmatched performance of the Opsware Process Automation System,� said Tim Howes, EVP of Research & Development and CTO at Opsware Inc. �Process automation, which Network Computing identifies as important to reducing costs and complexity of IT systems, is at the center of Opsware�s zero latency approach to data center management.
