Attune is a powerful and intuitive IT automation tool that empowers system administrators to automate complex processes with ease. It supports popular scripting languages such as bash and PowerShell, making it accessible to admins who are already familiar with these languages. Attune's unique orchestration approach enables admins to customise automation processes to meet their specific needs. Its sequence of steps feature establishes its own connection to a device using ssh or WinRM, deploys a script, and captures the log output as if you were running a script in a terminal. Attune also offers a powerful blueprinting feature, where admins can create reusable templates called Blueprints. These Blueprints use Parameters to create multiple automated jobs from a single Blueprint, saving time and ensuring consistency across multiple jobs. Attune's Blueprints can be shared and reused across teams and organisations, streamlining automation processes and driving greater efficiency.
