At $15 I just purchased it; I'll hopefully get to check out what it can do soon. :)

johnk,

Ok, I'm at home now. Let's see...


* GUI Automation Actions
* Windows Event log
* Network Shares
* System Information
* Name Server Lookup
* Generate Random Number
* Beyond Compare Script
* WGET Action
* String and Path Manipulation actions
Although there are several things that aren't in the Lite version that I really want, like Stack & Queue actions, Virtualization Software actions, NTFS Junction points actions, Registry and INI actions, and Active Directory actions.

But beggers cannot be choosers.

Thanks guys.  Let's say you are not (yet) in that programming, system management, ultra-techie mode.  Can you give some examples of usage. 

e.g. Would I use it like a macro to get a who-is from a firewall ?  (Opening a program or an external web site).  The problem there is I probably have to cut-and-paste the ip# anyway, so the gain is small.

For techie use .. no question, sounds good ... how about some less techie examples, in the next four hours :-).

Thanks for anything you can come up with.

Shalom,
Steven

Automise is a tool that is very useful, but only when it is used in a manner that it was intended. Automise is something you use to automate processes that you would otherwise have to do manually and often. If it is just something you need to do a few times, there really is no benefit. It would take you just as long to automate and test it as it would to just do in manually a few times. However, if you are looking to automate system administration tasks without having to write a bunch of scripts by hand or prefer to deal with these things in a more visual way, then Automise, and similar tools, are worth their weight in gold.
