Control-M Workload Automation

Automate job scheduling to run more jobs faster. Old-school job scheduling no longer cuts it. Replace multiple schedulers with one integrated solution:BMC Control-M V8. Increased power and a new, simplified interface make workload automation easier and more efficient than ever before.

What's new in BMC Control-M V8?

Latest version of Control-M, quite simply, offers more: More power. More collaboration. More performance. Easily manage all scheduling and monitoring tasks from one new streamlined, intuitive interface. Work with colleagues to define workflow through virtual workspaces. Upgrade agents without any downtime. It all boils down to increased efficiency that lets running more jobs in less time no matter how complex business processes.

Simple job scheduling from one point of control

Workload automation doesn't get much simpler than this. BMC Control-M V8's redesigned interface is more intuitive and easier to use. Businesses will be able to schedule and manage everything down to the very last platform and application from a single point of control. BMC's new interface also makes it easier to manage complex, time-sensitive projects. Virtual workspaces allow businesses to collaborate with colleagues regardless of location or time zone. And, because data is stored in a common repository, they can create and change workload elements without worrying about synchronization issues.

Power to manage and support all systems

Simplified interface doesn't doesn't mean businesses have to sacrifice power. In fact, BMC Control-M V8 is most powerful version yet. Automate secure file transfers across entire enterprise with more efficiency and at a lower cost than most standalone apps. Meet audit requirements at a moment's notice with built-in change management that records every change. And prioritize workloads based on business needs with dynamic workload management. Control-Ms power is also backed by serious performance with the ability to automate and integrate nearly every application through one point of control, across almost all platforms and business processes.
