Control-M: One of the best scheduling and monitoring tool
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
Control m
What do you like best about the product?
The batches customisation filters where we can apply sub application and can check the batches related to it with graphical representation as grey for waiting, yellow for executing, green for completed
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to automate the batches. We can configure with outlook as it sends mail when batches ended not ok but it's difficult to do. Also it takes time to open.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are checking all critical jobs related to multiple applications and checking the start and end time. If ended ok then we resolve the ticket if not then we investigate
Control-M is amazing for our batch job processing and monitoring
What do you like best about the product?
Control-M is a fantastic platform for monitoring and processing a large number of jobs. The ability to run different kinds of jobs such as SQL, SAS, etc. The platform enables alerts in case of job failure or if the job runs for a long duration of time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Contol-M provides rich features and an easy user interface, and there are not many dislike features we have encountered yet. I would suggest the idle timeout for the website should be increased.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are processing many SQL jobs and monitoring them through Control-M regarding the failure or long-running duration. We can order a new job and stop the job whenever we want.

Running jobs are in yellow and waiting jobs are in gray etc. We schedule command line jobs and AFT jobs.

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.

What do you dislike about the product?
Since it is a Newbie, not many cons. Here are some which I observed:-
The upgrade process could use some improvement as it is a little bit complex.
Failed job Color Should be changed to red or any. Dependencies have issues if the cyclic job fails and we try to re-run.

Batch Job Review
What do you like best about the product?
Everything is perfectly set without much human being interventions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too costly so many low budget companies interested for for all other cheap options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling of batch jobs which were running before in traditional way so its is convenient for customers to get things as perfect time without much delay and also its cheap for them..
If you're looking for an app to schedule a job, here's it!
What do you like best about the product?
The visual interface is very nice. You can move the jobs with drag and drop and create easily. Set the jobs that need to work from planning. When that day comes, let it come to monitoring and be triggered by itself. Especially, it made ftp work much easier, which we often do. You get the job done with arrows. Excellent.
What do you dislike about the product?
Bash scripting is required to create an OS job. Yes I know there is no other way but it would be nice if it was done like drag and drop
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage jobs that we used to manage with crontab on the linux server in the past, much more easily than in an environment where we can now see them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a product to do this job, you can choose Control-m with your eyes closed.
