Proactive Monitoring and Insightful Dependency Views Elevate Control-M
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Control-M gives early visibility into what is running, what is delayed, and what might fail next. Instead of waiting for user complaints, we can proactively watch critical background jobs and data movements. The dependency view is especially helpful because it shows how one delay can affect multiple systems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The platform needs ongoing attention. If alerts and views are not tuned properly, they can become noisy. Some routine admin tasks also take more steps than expected, so experience matters to use it efficiently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Control-M helps us prevent outages caused by missed or delayed jobs. It reduces manual checking, shortens response time during incidents, and gives the operations team confidence that critical processes are under control.
Robust, Enterprise-Scale Solution for Complex Workflows
What do you like best about the product?
It’s robust, centralized and enterprise-scale which can handle complex dependencies and strict SLAs.
What do you dislike about the product?
High-cost, complexity and learning-curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Solves the problem of reliably running complex, business critical workloads. Also brings very concrete benefits.
Effortless Job Scheduling and Seamless Integration
What do you like best about the product?
Control-M makes complex job scheduling simple. I love it's intuitive interface, strong automation capabilities, and the way it integrates seamlessly with multiple platforms. It saves time and reduces manual effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
The initial setup and configuration process can be somewhat complicated for new users. Additionally, the licensing costs are significantly higher compared to other tools. What I find most frustrating is the column width and sizing in the self-service section. While many features have been carried over from CCM to the web version, the configuration windows remain quite small, making them difficult and frustrating to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool enables us to automate and coordinate complex workflows across different platforms, which minimizes manual effort and enhances reliability. In my experience working with a banking client, there are many situations where the standard job types are insufficient, and that's when the application integrator proves invaluable. Its user interface is excellent and very straightforward to use.
Insightful System Monitoring Made Easy with Control-M
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Control-M helps me understand how different systems depend on each other. I can see when jobs start, finish, or wait for inputs from other applications. This makes it easier to analyze system behavior and explain delays or failures to both technical and nontechnical teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool has many options, which can feel overwhelming at first. Finding specific jobs or flows takes time if the environment is not well organized. Some views could be simpler for analysis work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Control-M helps reduce confusion between systems by clearly showing job order, timing, and impact. It removes guesswork, improves coordination between teams, and helps keep system processes running in a stable and predictable way.
User-Friendly GUI with Seamless Batch Scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
I use Control-M for batch job scheduling and appreciate its user-friendly GUI. I find the batch job details and configurations particularly helpful. Control-M supports devops agile practices through job as a code which I find valuable. The initial setup was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
BMC software should reduce the component like Control-M agent
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Control-M provides an enterprise-wide batch job scheduling solution with a user-friendly GUI. The batch job details and configurations, along with DevOps agile practices through job as code, enhance my scheduling efficiency.
Empowers Workflow Automation with Code Driven Precision
What do you like best about the product?
Control-M lets me define workflows in code and run them from CI/CD, so automations are testable and versioned.
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial setup for the API, agents, and integrations needs planning, and the environment can get messy without naming and folder rules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It replaces scattered scripts with a single, auditable orchestration layer and also handles secure file moves (MFT) tied to those workflows. That cuts errors and speeds recovery.
