Replace rigid scheduling, per-job licensing, and legacy complexity with a modern, event-driven automation platform that scales without limits. Resolve helps IT, infrastructure, and operations teams move faster, resolve incidents up to 80% faster, and automate without artificial cost or execution caps.
Stop Paying the Legacy Tax
BMC Control-M
Total Cost of Ownership
Up to 70% lower TCO with predictable, all-inclusive pricing and unlimited executions
High and unpredictable costs driven by per-job, agent, and add-on licensing
Time to Value
Productive in days with visual, low-code workflows and 5,000+ pre-built automations usable by non-specialists
Months to years of ramp-up requiring trained Control-M specialists
Automation Scope
Complete end-to-end, cross-domain orchestration across ITSM, AIOps, cloud, and infrastructure
Primarily batch and workload scheduling with limited cross-domain reach
Real-Time Responsiveness
Event-driven automation that reacts instantly to incidents and signals
Batch and schedule-centric with limited real-time responsiveness
Operational Overhead
Lightweight, low-ops platform available as SaaS or deployed on‑prem with minimal infrastructure and maintenance
Heavyweight architecture requiring agents, databases, frequent tuning, upgrades, and dedicated admin ownership
