➢ Competitors offering AutoSys customers very attractive swap-out programmes

• We continue to work with AutoSys but now also partner with other leading Workload Automation vendors

➢ as the vendor ceases to actively promote AutoSys and the user base shrinks

Our customers tell us they are experiencing:

• Lack of support (generally feeling unloved)

• R12 roadmap not as feature rich as expected

• Uncertainty about future of the product

Options:

1 – Do nothing (not really option in a regulated environment)

2 – Upgrade AutoSys to latest version (r12 full upgrade)

3 – Consider a migration (product with path of least resistance / least risk)
