What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
i write some playbook that provision machines in aws (infra structure as a service) and write another playbook that install some software(Software as a service). and I also take user input by using survey and pass that user input to playbook. ex: if user input is centos so we have to provision centos operating systerm in aws and if other input is maria-db and java so we have to install java and maria-db in that machines that provision
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes I recommend to all other that use ansible ans provide Infrastructure as a service as well as software as a servcie. tower provide is very effective way to play with our playbook like you can specify a specific time to run a particular palybook (schedule a playbook). also create workflow to run a specific playbook after a particular playbook.
