Resolve Onboarding and Offboarding Automation vs Rundeck

Resolve Onboarding and Offboarding Automation coordinates employee lifecycle changes across HR, identity, and IT systems. Onboarding workflows can create accounts, assign entitlements, provision email, VPN, and SaaS applications, deliver software, and notify managers and new hires. Offboarding can disable accounts, revoke tokens, reclaim licenses, trigger device wipes or locks, archive mailboxes, and record actions. HRIS or identity-provider events can start workflows, with actions based on role, location, and department; manual submissions through RITA are also available. The workflow checks licensing, inventory, and access states, flags exceptions with diagnostics, and updates CMDB, ITSM, HRIS, and audit systems. Resolve names AD, Azure AD, and Okta for account creation. Its open integration framework connects custom or legacy tools through REST APIs, SNMP, SSH, TCP, SMTP, or SOAP. The paid product runs through API, self-hosted, and web deployments; pricing is on request.

Rundeck orchestrates existing automation for routine work across development and production environments. It combines scripts, tools, APIs, and system commands into workflows, with job scheduling, infrastructure management, self-service, and automated operations. Users can schedule recurring tasks such as reports or file transfers, while the job activity log records run times, output, and duration. Rundeck includes ready-made plugins and lets users create integrations; featured community plugins include Ansible, Jenkins, Kubernetes, Chef, Puppet, HashiCorp Vault, Azure Storage, Google Cloud Platform, and Jira. Granular role-based controls govern what can run and who can run it, while an activity audit trail and Key Storage help restrict access to sensitive job data. Rundeck Community is free for small teams, with registration required. Commercial versions include high availability and resiliency, and the hosted offering lists a 99.9% SLA. Commercial support is available by phone, email, or portal; a commercial trial is offered. Supported systems include Linux, Windows, and macOS, with web, API, and self-hosted options.
