It's a Mainframe jobs' Scheduling and monitor tool, but it works right within the mainframe through the regular old green screens, so I don't have to switch between systems. It's easy for me to use and fits naturally into our secure setup.

It connects well with other systems too, not just mainframe jobs, but distributed systems and file transfers as well which helps in my quick job's flow and its dependencies. So I get one place to track everything.

It performs well even when hundreds of jobs run during peak overnight batch cycles which process high Business logics. I can quickly see what ran, what triggered it, and what's next(dependencies), which makes troubleshooting fast and helps with daily Processing

Support has been reliable, with regular updates from BMC. I've also noticed newer versions adding AI features like predictive alerts, which is a good step forward. But we are exploring these features and trying to integrate with our systems.

And what impresses me most is that mainframe technology is almost 60 years old, and it's still running strong today - with Control-M playing a big part in keeping it going smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Licensing and pricing are a real pain point. It isn’t cheap, and the cost adds up as we scale to more jobs, so only a few people end up having access to this tool. Also, the GUI can feel a bit dated compared to newer tools like TWS which I have been using it as well for other Projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
