Surprised by a 2-3x AppWorx Renewal?
AppWorx customers tell us the same story since Broadcom took over: the renewal jumped 2-3x, the console has not visibly changed, and the support team that used to know your name is harder to reach. Compare that to JAMS Scheduler. Pricing for the product is on this page and JAMS Scheduler ships new capability every quarter.

“Migration Is Our Job, Not Yours.”
1 · Extract
Send us an extract of your AppWorx job definitions. You get a conversion assessment back within 5 business days.
2 · Plan
You get a tailored migration plan with named owners and dates.
3 · Convert
Our converter translates AppWorx job definitions automatically and carries roughly 75 percent of the heavy lifting.
4 · Finalize migration
Your team validates converted jobs and approves the plan. Nothing cuts over until your sign-off.
5 · Cut over
JAMS runs alongside AppWorx until your team trusts what it sees. Then you cut over.
Is it risky?
Our team and our premium partners do these migrations for a living. The converter carries most of the load up front, nothing cuts over before your team trusts what it sees, and you can test it on your own export today.
Will it distract my team?
Switching schedulers off AppWorx was likely not on your strategic priorities list this year. Many people read this page because a renewal number SHOCKED them, not because they went looking for this project. We take on as much of the lift as we can, and we carry the heavy end.
What does it really cost?
Migration services are fixed bid, so the number you approve is the number you pay. Some environments qualify for a free migration. Ask us if yours does.
See it before you talk to anyone.
Free converters for Windows Task Scheduler, SQL Agent, Cron, and Airflow. Send us an AppWorx extract and get a converted sample back in less than a week.
How to Buy JAMS
Most teams know exactly where this ends: a signed contract and a migrated environment. Here is the path to get there, start to finish.
Twenty-two days from first call to signed contract. Most of it is you deciding, not you waiting on us.
