Overall Satisfaction with Control-M

Control-M runs all of our product, sales and distribution for all of North America. We typically run over 2,500 to 3,000 tasks per day. This keeps the business running accurately and efficiently. Without the use of Control-M's automation our IT Department would be tasked with executing multiple scripts/tasks all day and night. That would NOT be efficient!

Pros

  • Batch Automation
  • File Transfer
  • Efficient
  • Successful
  • Customer Focused

Cons

  • How-To documents
  • Self-Help documents
  • Ease integrating multiple applications under one scheduler
  • Moved from a far inferior file transfer service to Control-M MFT/B2B
  • Terrific customer service
75 - The application team represent all of North America for our business unit in US and Canada. Control-M always is in the mix of all of our overall meetings because Control-M is innovative with their approach to continue to add in more cloud applications that Control-M is able to intergrate with. If Control-M wasn't able to continue to innovate and keep all cloud applications and legacy applications together then we would have needed to look for another solution.
I would say that most users are able to grasp Control-M concept pretty easily. The use of colors and graphics helps ease the users into the product. Also our Operations staff that continuously changes is able to understand the overall concept. I would love for BMC to keep the GUI instead of the web interface overall because most of our end users and power users understand it better
