Tidal Automation Reviews

Strong Security Upgrades, Tidal introduced AES‑256 encryption across all databases and configuration files, ensuring enterprise‑grade protection for sensitive data. The encryption process now includes detailed logging and auto‑backup, making system administration safer and more transparent. Major Cloud Security Expansion, A standout improvement is the addition of 47 comprehensive AWS security tests. These cover IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager, and CloudWatch, helping teams automatically detect misconfigurations such as unsecured policies, unused access keys, missing MFA, and insufficient CloudWatch alerts. Better Integration with Jira,You can now link existing Jira tickets directly to Tidal tasks, which helps synchronize workflows across engineering, compliance, and operations. This eliminates duplicate issues and ensures better alignment between teams. Improved Event Triggers & Agent Stability, New job event triggers—such as alerts when a job may collide with an outage window—help prevent unexpected failures.Tidal also improved agent stability by preventing older agents from shutting down unexpectedly and tightening job parameter validation.

A richer analytics dashboard with drill‑down insights, customizable reporting, and better log visualization would significantly enhance operational transparency. More frequent bug‑fix releases and continuous performance optimization, especially for large job streams.

We have project where we have to schedule jobs based on particular events Tidal workflow Automation has helped in this, it also provides real time monitoring with SLA information which helps in saving cost and managing the project.

I like the ease of use of Tidal Automation. I also appreciate how flexible the features are. Additionally, it makes cross platform job scheduling easy, which is a big help for us. The initial setup was pretty easy too.

I wish that the BO BI Adapter supported all formats that a Crystal Report could be. For example, XLSX isn't supported.

I use Tidal Automation for job and report scheduling. It makes cross-platform job scheduling easy.

I like that the system, most of the time, will be up and running. It is a good thing, which I like about Tidal Automation. The initial setup was good, and we got much support from Tidal.

I feel like Tidal Automation is a bit slow compared to other automation tools on the market. I'm hoping for more of a GUI display and better performance. It would be great if it displayed more errors directly in the UI rather than having to log in to the back end server to collect the details. I would be happier if the logs could be available on the front end rather than logging into the server where Tidal is installed.

I use Tidal Automation for scheduling our data integration jobs. It's reliable, often up and running, which is useful. However, it's a bit slow compared to other automation tools and could be more GUI-friendly for error display.

Graphical interface made it easier to learn and use. Ability to add job dependencies and file dependencies.

The command line feature is not robust enough. Need a way for mass update of tidal agent connections, agent list, job description etc.

It helps us avoid having the operator log in manually for everything.

Tidal automation is powerful and flexible, it can get our complex system run as scheduled with correct dependency logic. It's easy to learn and straight forward, the user's manual and tutorial are very helpful for beginners. Redwood end users support generally is good, we always get quick response once a ticket is opened.

There are still some bugs in the product.

We have hundreds of jobs to run every day, most of them must run in certain order and at certain time, without an automation tool this can't be achieved, Tidal Automation is the perfect product for this purpose.

I find Tidal Automation very easy to navigate and user-friendly, which makes job scheduling and monitoring simple for end users. I appreciate the alert emails that include detailed job logs, saving me from having to log into the SAP system. I like the repository feature, which is especially useful for moving jobs between pre-production and production environments with ease. Additionally, the support from Tidal Automation has been great, guiding us through an easy version upgrade.

I love the flexibility of the scheduling as well as the ability to have dependencies that rely on other systems to run jobs we want to have run. The setup was extremely easy, and if needed, consultant companies like Blue House Software are available to help with installation or upgrades. Tidal Automation's scheduler is very well-documented with capabilities for running specific jobs, and I can even create my own calendars for job scheduling.

The reporting could use a little bit of work.

I use Tidal Automation to handle complex scheduling issues and run jobs with dependencies from other systems, including file sizes and specific job completions. It allows creating custom calendars for job scheduling.

Once I understood the basics of Tidal Automation, it became quite simple to use. Building workflows is like putting together puzzle pieces with three or four different classifications like jobs, groups, milestones, and terminate jobs. With these job types, I can create workflows that follow logical paths depending on the outcome of the previous job. I find it interesting that there can be scheduled jobs or event-based jobs that only kick off once a certain event is met.

Sometimes the interface is glitchy, and that might just be trying to do too much at once. Occasionally, we find glitches, and they're often patched in the next version. But in between versions, we only upgrade once a year, due to the high criticality of the environment we're working in. It's difficult if you don't know what you don't know. It's hard to think about a new idea if you don't have someone to bounce ideas off of. Oftentimes, you'll use it one way for a long time before you figure out there's a new and better way of doing things.

Tidal Automation saves a lot of employee time by handling mundane and routine tasks, automating file exchanges with vendors for academic processes and financial systems.
