I am not fond of the Web Client. I feel a lot of improvement can be made that can make it much better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Auto scheduling of processes on multiple servers that are handled from one location. I like the ability to run processes using diffrent execution methods that cover all business needs.

JAMS has resolved vast amount of work load which was happening in the past.

It's easy to install and configure and troubleshoot the problems ourselves.

Hmm, none actually, everything seems advantageous as per your need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are running thousands of JAMS jobs, and they are running 24X7. Apart from few minor issues, everything runs smoothly, which was not the case when we were running using Windows task scheduler.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it.
The JAMS scheduler is a very good scheduling tool. It has a lot of useful funcitonalities.

It is very slow using our corporate VPN which is must to use for running the JAMS client.

We are scheduling many setups, workflows, individual jobs using JAMS and it supports all of these with ease.
Excellent task scheduler with very responsive support.
What do you like best about the product?
Before JAMS we had a hodge podge of powershell scripts run by windows task scheduler strewn across our environment. With JAMS we were able to centralize our automation and maintenance tasks with built in Success/Failure notifications with logging.
The suite of Powershell cmdlets which allow querying the credential manager, import/export jobs and their respective scripts that enabled us to easily check our code into git, as well as the ability to transmit files via multiple file transfer protocols.
Another thing we love is the credential manager. This may be the biggest boon for us, securely managing passwords was a struggle for us beforehand.
Couldn't be happier with the product, it has solved a lot of headaches.
Support on the product has also been very helpful. There has not been an issue that they were not able to assist in solving. Their support staff are quick to respond and very courteous.

The best part about JAMS is the support staff. They are very prompt, usually replying to the initial request within 1 hour. They are extremely helpful and friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still fairly new to JAMS Scheduler, but so far all my questions/issues have been resolved within 2 hours - I have no complaints about the excellent support I have received.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increasing automation.
I always get great support with immediate attention from the JAMS scheduling support teams.
What do you like best about the product?
The JAMS automation systems are very intuitive. All our system administrators and developers compliment how well it is to work with the systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issue or concern I've had in the past is the slow install and larger-then-normal client installation. Over a gig storage is a bit hefty for a client interface. Hoping future SFTP frameworks are more fortified in the application so we can better transition off of WinSCP setups without so much programming. Other than that, no complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Job data file transport is our primary tool along with how well it works with PowerShell customizations. There's almost nothing that can't be created thanks to the File-Trigger and dependency automation features running JAMS 7.
