With this security management tool IT administrators can schedule and modify tasks for all Windows servers and workstations in the network simultaneously, rather than manually managing tasks on one machine at a time.
Organizations that deploy Task Scheduler Pro can benefit from increased security through patch reporting, patch deployment, and general program deployment. Additionally, the software helps organizations comply with regulatory standards by updating and maintaining an audit trail for the credentials used by scheduled tasks and the AT scheduler.
Task Scheduler Pro also provides diagnostics information to troubleshoot scheduled tasks failures. It presents a multi-system linear view of the scheduled tasks folders on managed systems.
At a glance, an administrator can see which tasks stopped running, the machines they stopped running on, and the reason why they stopped running. Scheduled task entries can be highlighted and modified individually or as a set.
