AutoIt isn’t flashy. It’s not the latest, cloud-connected automation platform. But it’s precise, fast, and surprisingly elegant once you get the hang of it.

Puppet Bolt is what you grab when you want to automate something now, without setting up half an ecosystem. It won’t replace a full CM platform, and it’s not trying to. But for small to mid-sized ops tasks, across a handful of machines, it’s surprisingly capable.

Salt isn’t a tool that holds your hand. It hands you the keys, points at the engine, and says, “Go build something smart.” It’s powerful, fast, and built with flexibility in mind — perfect for sysadmins and DevOps engineers who want control without extra noise.

WinAutomation is the kind of thing you discover out of frustration, and then wonder why you waited so long. It doesn’t do everything, but it handles the boring stuff that fills up afternoons. Especially in offices where “manual process” is just how things are done.
