Overall Satisfaction with Control-M

Currently the best tool on the market. All batch processing of the company is executed by Control-M. Opening, closing, and sending files, in addition to that, our processes and systems are fully interconnected, requiring proper chaining and sequencing. Everything goes through Control-M. Today, we execute over 200,000 jobs in Control-M. Besides being impossible to execute this manually, Control-M prevents operational errors.

Pros

  • Robust and scalable tool.
  • Resilient
  • Executes processes with proper chaining and an excellents logs to audit.
  • Intuitive graphical interface.

Cons

  • Dashboard
  • Report
  • Data analysis
  • AI
  • Critical path calculation with AI
  • Stability and reliability in process execution
  • We execute over 200,000 jobs per day.
  • We have processes being executed directly by business users (non-IT) with a lot of confidence in the tool.
200 - Recycle of systems and platforms. File transfer On-Prem and Cloud. All of this translates into agility
The Control-M interface (only Control-M client) used by IT operations teams is simple and user-friendly. Business teams also use Control-M but through the WEB interface (Control-M Self Service).
We have been using Control-M for almost 20 years and our teams are already trained to use it. Other tools are not as robust and resilient as Control-M. Control-M's graphical interface is very easy to use.
