Need a cron alternative? Automating the flow of business-critical data and tasks shouldn't be challenging, limited to local servers, or time consuming. Take the easy route to replace cron jobs and upgrade to centralized automation management, visibility, and control across your entire hybrid IT environment. The Stonebranch XCT software automatically converts and upgrades your cron jobs to the UAC, where you can orchestrate your workflows in real-time and support industry audit standards like HIPAA, SOX, and GLBA. Download the datasheet to learn more.

Cron automation solution highlights:

  • Single point of control: the UAC's real-time dashboard allows a centralized setup, control, and monitoring of all business processes in a fully customizable web interface.
  • Self-service conversion: no need for heavy migration projects. XCT supports a fully self-service conversion of all existing Windows jobs and tasks, and enables the central management of all scripts via script library. 
  • Decreased batch processing time: real-time resource control of all event- and time-based processes and tasks — including critical path handling.
  • Consolidated automation: unify all services, users, and processes into a single, easy-to-manage solution.
