Control-M: One of the best scheduling and monitoring tool

  • December 20, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Contol-M is one of the best scheduling tools and user frienldy.
We have everything on the screen like Planning, Monitoring, History, Forecast, Tools, etc.
In Planning, we schedule and create a new job(AFT and Command-line), which is quite simple.
In Monitoring, we can monitor the planned jobs.
We have an alert window when we receive the alerts for all the failed jobs, late started jobs, running late jobs, etc. We can easily navigate the job with the help of an alert window and take action as per required.
Taking action on the jobs(like a rerun, force complete, delete, kill, hold, free, etc) are on just one click.
We can also monitor the control-m resource, quantitative resource, conditions of the jobs very easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Applying filters is a little tricky.
Sometimes treeing the jobs not navigating.
Sometimes its environments change automatically.
AJF takes at least 30 minutes to upload all the jobs(approx 30k jobs)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We schedule AFT jobs and command-line jobs with the help of this tool. We have been using Control-M for more than five years. I am working as a technical associate, and my role is to schedule the jobs. Contol-M is the most accessible tool to schedule the jobs. Very simple to use and schedule the jobs. Monitoring the scheduled jobs is more simple. We have a monitoring window to get all the alerts like failed jobs, running late jobs, more than the estimated time, etc. We simply click on alerts to navigate jobs

Best scheduling and Monitoring tool

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using this tool for the last five years. This tool is so simple to use and user-friendly. We use this tool for scheduling and monitoring purposes. Its color feature for all the jobs like if the job got failed it will be in red if the job got completed it would be in green color. Running jobs are in yellow and waiting jobs are in gray etc. We schedule command line jobs and AFT jobs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes when we find a job in the current active job plan(AJF), there is an issue with treeing the job. This is the only problem I have seen in the past five years.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have scheduled almost 35,000+ jobs in every current day plan. We monitor the jobs with the help of this tool, and when every required any emergency change, we perform the change with this tool as well.

Jobs scheduling is easier

  • September 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It has enabled us in easy scheduling of production UNIX jobs easily as per unique and easy design of Control M. It helps us to get and classify jobs folder wise and output in a separate section. Also you can have data date-wise and also based on active and inactive job-wise. I loved the way of exporting and importing and loading of jobs inside the tool for scheduling purpose. After all Control M solved a lot in a single piece of software which makes very great the environment and work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think if there is anything which I really don't like. The product is very great and there is nothing to say about down points.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Job scheduling is the only purpose for which I use it.

Control M capablities

  • September 18, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Its a workload automation tool that centralizes enterprise level jobs. The GUI is so strong that you can view more than 500 jobs running at one time.
What do you dislike about the product?
It still does not have anything that supports SAS related jobs directly.No direct plug in for creating SAS jobs. So it would be really great to have all these features added in this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Automation of DRP with the help of Control M.
Easy detection and faster turn around time for job failures.
