What I don't like with scheduling in Control-M is that when you schedule a job that has the same in-condition instead of confirming with you if you want to change the other one, it will add a random number to denote the difference between them.

Delicate Batch Monitoring Tool

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.

Control-M -The best Scheduler
What do you like best about the product?
For Mainframes Platform I found Control-m as the most most accessible scheduler. It clearly shows the dependencies in terms of conditions and out conditions for the other jobs to execute. Its easy-to-use and UI based Control-m tool simplifies the scheduling tasks to a matter of drag and drop .
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the scheduling becomes really complicated when you have very specific schedules for certain jobs like run the job with different conditions for the holiday runs.

Its a very effective and convenient tools for the mainframes scheduler.Also it's well designed to accommodate complex scheduling requirements of jobs for various schedules and calenders.
Nice tool for job automation!
What do you like best about the product?
In our case, we have quite many legacy systems and batch jobs need to run during non-office hours with complicated sequence and conditions. Contorl-M is able to run different types of jobs, e.g. window batch, APIs...etc. This bascially solve all our issues to turn manual workflow into automated flow.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would say the support document is a bit hard to be located. While I try to find some references for API job setup, I could hardly find related samples.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solved the heavy manual workflows in our operation team and automated most of the manual tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
So far I think this an excellent option to go for as it supports many platforms and job types. However, pricing could be a concern if you have thousands of job.

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.

Applying filters is a little tricky.
Sometimes treeing the jobs not navigating.

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
