JAMS is an automation orchestration and job scheduling solution that runs, monitors, and manages critical IT processes from a single console, from simple batch jobs to complex, cross-platform workflows. JAMS automates jobs across Windows, Linux, UNIX, IBM i, z/OS, and OpenVMS, with native integrations for the databases, BI tools, and ERP systems already running your business, including SQL Server and SAP. Jobs run on any schedule or trigger off other events, and dependency management keeps multi-step workflows in the right order.
Every job is centrally monitored, with notifications on success or failure and an audit trail of every execution. Built-in conversion tools migrate existing jobs from Windows Task Scheduler, SQL Agent, or Cron without rebuilding them, and JAMS replaces homegrown, single-platform scripts with one centrally managed system.
JAMS includes two AI capabilities at no additional cost. JAX is an AI agent built into the JAMS Web Client. Ask it a question in plain language, and it finds a job, troubleshoots a failure, or looks up how to do something, grounded in JAMS documentation, not general AI guesswork. It acts only when asked, and every change waits for your approval. JAMS MCP brings JAMS into the AI coding tools teams already use, including Cursor, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Desktop.
Both run inside the customer's network with the signed-in user's permissions and no elevated AI account, and every action, AI-driven or not, lands in the same audit trail as everything else in JAMS.
For teams managing thousands of jobs across SQL Server, ADF, Airflow, SAP, JDE, and Banner, this cuts tribal knowledge and middle-of-the-night troubleshooting. Knowledge that once lived in one person's head becomes something any team member can ask about directly.
The AI lives in the product, not in the support queue. Support is staffed by humans JAMS will never outsource, based in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. New tickets go to long-tenured engineers, and every JAMS customer has the CEO's cell phone number.
JAMS' mission is to reduce the operational burden of critical automation, so teams spend more time on the work automation was meant to free them for.

Cronjob.de
Cronjob.de runs your cron jobs from the outside: enter a script's address, pick a schedule, and our servers call it on time – every minute, daily or on any crontab expression. No server, SSH or crontab access needed: the simple fix for shared hosting, WordPress (WP-Cron), shops and web apps.
Set-up takes seconds: paste your host's cron instructions or describe the schedule in plain words, and the AI fills in the job. Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor can manage your jobs via MCP.
Every call is logged with status and runtime. If a job fails, you get one alert per incident and an all-clear when it recovers – by email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Discord or webhook. Cronjob.de also monitors websites and SSL certificates.
Run by a German company since 2003, servers in the EU, invoices with VAT and a GDPR data processing agreement. Up to five cron jobs are free for good; every new account starts with a 14-day trial of all features.
