"Flexible, Affordable Orchestration That Makes Workflow Automation Easy"
5/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

I like how easy it is to set up a flow, use the UI’s orchestration features, and test and debug when a flow fails. I also appreciate how straightforward it is to turn almost any code into a functional, automated workflow. Overall, it feels truly flexible—not just in how execution agents can be deployed, but also in how the code itself can be structured. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

I have nothing negative to say, it is one of the most affordable and effective orchestration tools on the market. It features excellent processing capabilities that adapt perfectly to our needs and works excellently for all teams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly Visual Interface That Eliminates Repetitive Workflows"
5/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

I appreciate the visual interface, the notification management, the report generation, and the constantly evolving web interface. It’s user-friendly and makes it easy even for non-technical users to carry out tasks across multiple systems with just a few clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

All of our departments use this tool, and it isn’t limited to the IT sector. I honestly have nothing negative to say about it; it has helped us eliminate repetitive workflows by recording the method we use to carry out each task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Managing scheduled tasks in multi system environments is now super simple for our team"
4/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

The best thing about JAMS Enterprise Job Scheduler is that it will allow me to control which background processes will run in our finance and ERP systems. I work as an IT operations lead and use it on a daily basis to coordinate SQL jobs, PowerShell scripts and file transfers that have to do with our accounting platform. The implementation was organized, and it can integrate itself with Windows Server and our ERP database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

The biggest difficulty has been the cost of licensing as we increased the use in different departments. With the increased number of teams seeking automated jobs we were forced to reexamine our subscription level which influenced budgetary deliberations. Moreover, structural revision is a process that should be well-tested, as a minor modification in one of the job chains may affect a chain of other processes. Internal changes are even slowed by that kind of caution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Flexible Scheduling with Smooth Integrations for Monitoring Hundreds of Jobs"
5/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

Its simple, user-friendly interface makes it easy to access, and I really appreciate the flexibility in scheduling. It integrates smoothly with multiple systems and provides a range of services for executing tasks. Overall, it stands out as a top-notch tool for monitoring tasks, and it can handle hundreds of jobs without any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

It would be great if the interface displayed more error details, because it sometimes malfunctions and it’s not always clear what went wrong. Also, there aren’t enough training videos available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A solution that automates repetitive processes effectively"
4.5/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

The aspect that draws my attention towards JAMS is that it makes it accountable over all scheduled jobs. Every task has a clear indication on who initiated it, the time it should be run and whether it has been successfully run or not. This openness also facilitates the team to track down on failures and to remain consistent. The used frequency has enhanced confidence that all processes are correctly performed according to the expectation and minimized the probability of missed or neglected tasks involving a number of systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

The first weakness is that it can be difficult to coordinate dependencies among numerous jobs. In case there are several tasks which cannot be achieved until other tasks are completed, planning is needed to ensure that arrangements are set in the right order. The fact that it is something that the team uses on a daily basis means that minor errors in configuration sometimes cause additional troubleshooting efforts and short term workflow slackage.

Response from Peter Hegland of JAMS

Hi Mauricio,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review and for being a loyal JAMS customer!! I'm glad JAMS has helped give you a central view of all your jobs and processes that you can control.

"JAMS Scheduler’s GUI Makes Monitoring, Scheduling, and Job History Effortless"
4.5/5
What do you like best about JAMS?

The GUI interface is a strength of the JAMS Scheduler. It's very monitor what is running or switch to see what the projected schedule is or even the history of the jobs that have ran. The Definitions shortcut allows for easy organization of the jobs that may run for different systems and/or environments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about JAMS?

The Reporting feature hasn’t been easy for us to use. We have a developer who created a custom PowerShell script to pull scheduled information from JAMS into a CSV for us, in a format that we find useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Peter Hegland of JAMS

Hi Marc - Thank you so much for being a loyal JAMS customer and taking the time to leave us a review! Very happy to hear that the monitor view, projected schedule and job history features have been of use to you. Agreed - reporting can be improved. We expect to make that better in our new web client coming out in June. It's available now in beta if you would like to test it. I will reach out to you re: how we can make reporting better.

If you would ever like to chat anything JAMS related please reach out. My email is peter.hegland@jamssoftware.com and I am the CEO of JAMS.
