Best tool for automation
What do you like best about the product?
We use automated Control-m jobs to do our housekeeping of MQ servers. So we had to set up the control-m jobs.
It helps to automate most tasks requiring you to log in to the server and spend 10-20 minutes. When you have thousands of servers, there is no option for control-m.

What do you dislike about the product?
Multiple times the Control-m jobs used to fail. So we had to do the task and restart the control-m jobs manually. But this happened rarely. When you compare the overall tasks done by control-m, I don't mind some failures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Control-M helps to automate a large quantity of work which will require an extra human resource. If you can automate the task, you can utilize the human resource in much better use.

Monotonous Workflows Simplified and SLAs Reduced through control M implementation.
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful feature of Control M was the availability of a UI-based platform for the implementation of the activities and repetitive tasks that can be performed through automation and setting the application in Control M.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback was a lack of knowledge base availability due to very less adaptation and implementation in the field where I was working. Being a first mover can bring some friction in terms of new learning and proper execution but once you get hold of it. It becomes easy and fast.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By Implementing Control-M and DevOps there were multiple production-related deployment tasks and batch jobs executions that were automated reducing manual intervention and errors. Automated deployment of applications on multiple servers and environments in a go was possible along with their active monitoring.
Worked as support engineer
What do you like best about the product?
User interface very intutive.
Easy to navigate and learn the possible options.
Central monitoring.
Can integrate with multiple ITIL management tools.
The licensing aspect is based on the number of objects but not on executions.

Used Control-M for Several Years
What do you like best about the product?
I like the functionality to schedule jobs in complex ways. I like the new vers 9 and the added functionality it brought.
What do you dislike about the product?
The reporting program is the worst. It’s pretty much 80% unusable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving issues with job scheduling across many platforms. We’ve seen many benefits with using aft.
Delicate Batch Monitoring Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The good scenes of control-m workbench is that it allows you to search jobs and schedules on particular dates, You can see the server and job details along with the status of their run.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the dislikes I faced on control-m is you can't just easily backtrack the job flow when compared to Arow tool. You should go for neighbors section to view successors and predecessors each time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Here are some benefits I faced - you can check the failure log for each failed time of the job's run. Also, under statistics, it shows job's average start and end time so that it will be comfortable to those who monitor the jobs.
