A top rated task automation tool should be one that has all the features you need, and must also be very easy to use or understand. That is why you need to take a look at VisualCron. It enables you to define jobs with tasks that start processes, copy files, execute remote scripts and send keystrokes.

What’s the big deal about VisualCron?

VisualCron is an advanced task scheduler/automation tool for Windows. It enables you to do benefit from a number of features including; Client/Server architecture, remote, secure control across the Internet, define jobs with tasks that start processes, copy files, execute remote scripts and send keystrokes.

Other features of VisualCron also include “Conditions” controls internal flow of tasks based on errors, last task result, if a file exists or contains a certain text. “Triggers” that starts jobs can either be based on time or system events like when a file has changed, process has started or ended, a change in the event log, etc, real time status update in a modern, easy to use interface, “Notifications” reports the result for a job or task result in different ways; write to a file, database table or send an email, etc.

Any downside?

Trial version (which is constantly reminded by the nag screen) is only good for 45 day and the full license will cost you $99 for 1 year Separate Maintenance & Support Pack or $299 for 1-server business license.
