Control-M Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Batch Admin at NBC Universal4.5I use Control-M at NBCUniversal to orchestrate diverse jobs and integrate platforms, simplifying operations, reducing failures, and enabling new capabilities. While highly valuable, its pricing and licensing models are challenging.
Senior System Specialist at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees4.5I find Control-M excellent for automation and cross-platform integration, providing a single view of operations. It's stable, scalable, and offers great support. My main concern is inflexible reporting and the new per-job licensing model's potential cost.
Lead Technical Manager at ANZ Banking Group4.0I find Control-M to be a stable, scalable, and best-in-class tool for complex, cross-platform job scheduling and workflow automation, significantly boosting operational reliability. However, its UI and licensing can be complex.
Co Founder & CEO at Sylkane4.5I've used Control-M for 15 years, appreciating its power, comprehensive overview, and stability. While deployment is straightforward, scalability across global environments can be challenging. I see potential for integrating business feedback with AI.
Controller Administrator at a government with 10,001+ employees4.5I find Control-M highly reliable, automating our critical operations, tripling workflow, and significantly reducing errors. Its scheduling and file watching capabilities are excellent, though I'd appreciate more scheduling options. Support and scalability are impressive.
Control Administrator at a financial services firm with 10,001+ employees4.5I value Control-M for its robust scheduling and large file transfer capabilities, despite its 'heaviness' causing performance issues and lag. It’s stable, scalable, and offers good support, making it effective for complex workflow management.
ETL Developer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees3.5I use Control-M for banking batch scheduling, valuing its visual dependencies and improved refresh. I desire a business ETA portal and drag-and-drop dependency creation. Suitable for large companies, I rate it 7/10.
Manager Projects at Cognizant4.5I appreciate Control-M's ability to orchestrate complex data pipelines, offering robust dependency management, a single UI, and SLA features. However, I find its pricing high, the learning curve steep, and the UI outdated, despite its strong capabilities.
