Overall Satisfaction with Control-M
It's used in BI. It's used to schedule our batch jobs which pull data from various sources independent of the technology used.
- Dependencies between the jobs of various tools/technologies. We run Informatica, .Net, SAS, SQL - all kinds of jobs and Control-M works very well with each kind of job.
- Email alerting facility after completion, failure; ability to retry jobs.
- Ability to run a job multiple times a day.
- Cyclic jobs. Dependencies have issues if cyclic jobs fail and we rerun. Failed cyclic jobs do not show up in red color.
- Old jobs which did not run. Control-M should change the color of yesterday's ordered jobs vs. today's jobs.
- We are able to streamline activities and data provision between various departments.
- QlikView and Informatica
Much better UI and much better handling of dependencies in Control-M compared to other tools.
