Overall Satisfaction with Control-M

Control-M is the enterprise-wide standard workload automation solution at our company. We have over 20,000 jobs scheduled each day across open systems and our mainframe environments Control-M manages the batch jobs execution in an efficient manner and aids in meeting and managing our SLAs.
  • Provides visibility and monitoring across all jobs/platforms.
  • The UI is user-friendly and requires very little training to obtain the status of key business processes.
  • Control-M for Hadoop enables Hadoop specific workflows to be developed, scheduled, managed and monitored along with other enterprise workloads, all in a single solution.
  • Control-M AFT allows us to schedule and track FTP transfers any other batch job. Provides the ability to transfer files securely either via SFTP or FTP with SSL and manage encrypted FTP credentials in a single centralized location.
  • The upgrade process could use some improvement as it is somewhat complex.
  • The Reporting function can be improved.
  • Control-M AFT could have better diagnostic tools or messages to aid in troubleshooting connection errors.
  • Control-M has allowed us to automate manual tasks and increase the productivity of our application teams.
Control-M is a very flexible and scalable solution which should fit most every workload automation need. We use several of the control modules such as, Control-M for PeopleSoft, Control-M for Hadoop and Control-M for Databases, just to name a few. We [have been] extremely pleased with BMC's Control-M and their support for years.
