CA Autosys Alternative
Broadcom AutoSys Workload Automation's Future is Uncertain
If your business relies on CA Workload Automation AE (AutoSys®) for job scheduling, it’s at risk. Broadcom’s acquisition of CA Technologies means the future of AutoSys – and any workflow that it automates – is uncertain. AutoSys looks to be on borrowed time. And the prospects of new functionality to improve its capabilities look remote.
The signs aren’t promising for AutoSys customers:
- Broadcom has laid off 40% of CA’s US support staff
- Professional services have been outsourced
- Innovation budgets have been reduced by more than half

Why Autosys Workload Automation Can’t Compete With Redwood
Redwood offers the world’s only true SaaS solution for workload automation and job scheduling. Consistent leadership, dedication, and investment have enabled us to keep us ahead of any other automation technology.
The reasons why Redwood’s process automation and orchestration stood out for EMA are:
Leading analyst Enterprise Management Associates® (EMA) has said as much in its “RADAR for Workload Automation” report, which recognizes Redwood for the Best Workload Automation SaaS solution and as a Value Leader. EMA evaluated over a dozen job scheduling software vendors, comparing the overall product strength of each technology with its cost efficiency. It also covered workload-related trends, such as embedded scheduling, DevOps capabilities and agent change management.

Redwood’s automation offers all the functionality you need in a single package and seamless cross-platform integration with on-premises systems, open-source applications and modern cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud and any application or web service. From orchestrating file transfers, ETL, ERPs, DevOps and big data pipelines to operating system processes on Windows, Linux and more.
Other reasons why Redwood’s business process automation is superior to AutoSys are because it helps you to:
Manage process deadlines, workflows, provisioning and decision making to react to real-time conditions before they impact your business.
Redwood’s workload automation solution also integrates with SAP, Oracle and other ERPs. Redwood has been an SAP partner for nearly 15 years and our solution been validated for full compatibility with its ERP since its first release.
We built, tested and migrated 1,900 scheduled business jobs away from RemoteWare and AutoSys. Since then, we’ve run almost three million jobs without a single problem or issue with Redwood.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does AutoSys do?
AutoSys is an automated job management tool that provides scheduling and monitoring capabilities for batch processes executed in the AutoSys environment. AutoSys was originally known as Unicenter AutoSys when it was first developed in the early 1990s, before changing to AutoSys Workload Automation during subsequent acquisitions by Platinum, CA and Broadcom. AutoSys installations can be complex and the software is known to have a heavy footprint. As a result, many organizations have shifted towards cloud-based or cloud-native workload automation solutions such as Redwood. See what you can achieve with Redwood.

For example, Redwood uses a fine-tuned methodology to streamline migrations, with team members working alongside customers to ensure a smooth onboarding.

See what you can achieve with Redwood.
What is workload automation software?
Workload automation is a type of software that automates the IT tasks to support a business process. For example, a retailer needs to transfer information about purchases from physical and online stores to a database. The ERP uses that data to coordinate restocking and reorders at the warehouse, and finance applications update accounting records and manage payments to vendors. Business processes like this are designed, scheduled and monitored through workload automation. Discover the wide range of use cases for Redwood’s workload automation platform.
