JAMS Scheduler Saves us time
What do you like best about the product?
We run hundreds of jobs a day internally for our company. From accounting to IT and most importantly for our shipping and receiving department. Upgrading to V7 has made this even more flexible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am really enjoying V7. There are a few things that do get under my skin a bit. One, tooltips get in my way when trying to save my work on a job. Two, while I was upgrading from V6 to V7 I would get these error messages and they are really tiny scroll windows with no way to expand them. I've seen the same issue in other areas of JAMS V7
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Probably the most important ones are the overnight jobs. Again we run hundreds of jobs. A smaller amount during the night still put quite a few. This reduces the need for nighttime staff.
Jams Scheduler Review
What do you like best about the product?
It has the flexibility to create all types of jobs.
It has both and thin client so that we can add as many users as needed to run their own jobs.
The software affordable compared to other packages.

What do you dislike about the product?
The software is not as intuitive to populate properties. To find some features it take a lot of hunting to find out. The documentation should be better so that do things ourselves.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our ETL software scheduler has scheduling ability. However, it does not allow us to run jobs based on dependencies. Also the software is flexible so that we can create new connections as needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Enure that it can run all types of jobs. Ensure that surpport is responsive to your needs. The soft ware should have the ability to restrict users on what they can see and run. This makes sure that unauthoried users are not running jobs that they don't access to or not realize what the impact of running jobs will have on the organizaiton.

Jobs/Tasks management made easy
What do you like best about the product?
Managing all our jobs/tasks in a single window is the catch for me. We have several SQL jobs, and the conversion to JAMS was seamless.
What do you dislike about the product?
lack of template for bulk job definition import
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
lack of single-point management for all our jobs and lack of granular control on who can create, run and manage jobs
reasonable control of job management
reasonable control of job management
JAMS SUpport was very helpful.
What do you like best about the product?
JAMS has almost all possible ways to automate the file transfer and execution of scripts. The Sequencing feature was helpful in completing the automation easily with the good UI. I felt great about the JAMS support as it was quick and right to the point in fixing the issue. I would recommend for others.
What do you dislike about the product?
I need to use it further more to find dislikes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have the flexibility to customize the file transfer process with multiple options like command or powershell scripts.
Good tool, based on windows OS for a reasonable Costs
What do you like best about the product?
Windows Based scheduler, easy to start automating (Batch) procedures
What do you dislike about the product?
we use many SQL*Plus scripts, and the oracle extension is costly and only intended for Oracle ERP, therefore we do not use this, but the basic features as Oracle Login would be appreciated .
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
over 5000 batch jobs a day scheduled without much hassle
Once setup and configured, JAMS works very well
What do you like best about the product?
The support is excellent, and replies are prompt. Issues are nearly always sorted in the same day.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could be more straightforward to deploy agent upgrades
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collects important jobs in one place and gives you an enterprise view.
Powerful and flexible workflow builder and job scheduler
What do you like best about the product?
I can use tasks to execute based on numerous triggers or combinations thereof. There are tasks that can be done with PowerShell programming and other functions that have modules already built.
What do you dislike about the product?
Debugging scripted tasks is a little bit cumbersome. I wish there were better capabilities to debug within the Jams editor. It's possible to debug things, but not as easy as it should be.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The automation of many processes that used to either be paper-based or those that required a lot of manual work are not being done by JAMS, either on a schedule or based on conditions being met.
JAMS User
What do you like best about the product?
Monitor screen
credentials stored in the application
History inqury.
Sequence jobs are handy.
The whole purpose of JAMS, getting out of scheduled tasks is why we purchased it. Gives us the benefits of a single place to look and manage regular tasks.

What do you dislike about the product?
Credentials are onboarded with incorrect security in a shared/team environment, i.e. adding a service account. it's a major pain to manage that. Other team members often forget to fix the security.
Parts of the UI arent great - found v6 slightly better. There a trace dumps in places where a user tries an action and they don't have the correct security.

An overview of what's happening in the environment
Historically before we used JAMS there would often go days/weeks where regularly scheduled tasks would fail. We didn't have the monitoring that we do now, better services to our customers.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product at a great price, alternatives out there such as Control-M, however this product for a fraction of the price is great.
Frustrating user interface but backend functionality is satisfactory for batch job scheduling.
What do you like best about the product?
It has custom calendar which is useful for us. Pricing is competitive for paid job scheduler.
What do you dislike about the product?
Desktop user interface is clunky and flicker when scrolling, makes it hard to know if an input has been changed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Batch scheduling that has complex dependency.
