Anyone have suggestions /experiences on a product to assist my company in the management of job scheduling? We're not finding the reporting abilities in EM to be sufficient. For example, we haven't found any easy way to know which jobs ran on Monday, and Tuesday, and which are scheduled for Wednesday without maintaining a seperate store of that information. I know we can customize an app to look @ the msdb, but we just don't have the time to do it right.

Thanks for any suggestions

I have used other products (don't remember the names right now because I used them a while ago), but I have always come back to EM. There are some very simple queries (don't have to customize an app for this) that you can write against the tables in the msdb database. It would cost less to write the queries then to actually buy a new product, learn the product, implement it, and create your reports.
