JAMS has been compared to some of the larger players, namely BMC Control-M and Tidal Enterprise Scheduler in the job scheduling arena.[1]

SystemiNetwork.com featured the JAMS Scheduler in a brief note [2] announcing the release of version 4.8 of the software and its improved file-transfer capabilities.

The JAMS Scheduler was featured in an ITJungle article, JAMS Brings Scheduling and File Transfer Capabilities to i OS.[3] This article describes the difficulties faced by AS/400 and System i users in automating file transfers and batch scheduling, and suggests that JAMS is worth investigation.

In a Powerscripting Podcast from March 2008,[4] JAMS was featured as a useful tool that users of Windows PowerShell can leverage to automate processes.

In November 2018, HelpSystems acquired MVP Systems Software and its JAMS Scheduler solution to expand its enterprise workload automation portfolio. [5]
