Why You Need JAMS in Your Business

Most organisations rely on a mix of schedulers, scripts, and manual checks to keep critical processes running, but this approach often leads to delays, errors, and unnecessary complexity. JAMS replaces that patchwork with a single, centralised platform that automates jobs across all your systems and applications. The result is fewer failures, faster response to events, and complete visibility into the workflows your business depends on.

Centralised, Cross-Platform Orchestration

JAMS unifies scheduling and automation across Windows, Linux, UNIX, and cloud environments. By consolidating multiple schedulers into one secure platform, teams gain a single pane of glass for monitoring, managing, and enforcing policies consistently.

  • Manage data transfers, reports, database updates, and application jobs from one console

  • Apply standardised scheduling, security, and permissions across all systems

  • Eliminate reliance on platform-specific schedulers to reduce operational risk

  • Replace disparate tools with one reliable solution for hybrid and enterprise environments

Partner JAMS With Your MFT Solution

Your Managed File Transfer solution ensures your data moves securely, reliably, and in full compliance, and that’s vital. But what happens next is just as important. Once a file has been delivered, reports need to run, databases need to update, applications need to refresh, and teams need to be notified. That’s where JAMS makes the difference. 

Service Orchestration and Automation Platforms (SOAP), like JAMS, work seamlessly alongside your file transfer solution to orchestrate everything that happens before, after, and around your file transfers. From triggering ETL processes when a file arrives, to running end-of-day reports, to coordinating complex automation workflows across multiple systems. JAMS gives you the power to automate the entire business process, not just the data movement.

Is It Time to Migrate
Your Decentralised Scheduler?

Stop fighting with rigid tools like Windows Task Scheduler, SQL Server Agent, or Control-M. JAMS replaces outdated schedulers with one secure, centralised platform that automates file transfers, batch jobs, and enterprise workflows with ease.

 

Support Your Zero Trust Approach

Zero Trust means never assuming your network is safe from both internal and external threats. That’s hard to achieve if jobs are spread across different schedulers, scripts, and tools. JAMS fixes this by pulling everything into one secure platform where you have complete visibility and control.

With centralised control, you can apply consistent security settings across every system and workflow. Role-based access keeps permissions tight, so users only touch what they need. Every action is logged automatically, giving you the audit trails required for compliance with regulations like SOX, HIPAA, or GDPR. By standardising security, removing blind spots, and making oversight simple, JAMS makes it much easier to put Zero Trust into practice across your IT environment.
