Modern Automation That Turns Your IT Vision Into Reality
Escape Your Aging and Costly Job Scheduling
There is no better time to make the switch away from TWS jobs, TWS mainframe, IBM Tivoli Netcool or Tivoli Workload Scheduler. These old schedulers simply aren’t built to meet the needs of modern digital businesses. IBM Tivoli workload automation was born in the 1970s – and it is showing its age. From complex licensing requirements to manual processes, nickel-and-dime add-ons to sky-high TCO, Tivoli is an automation dinosaur that can’t keep up with the high volume and dynamic scheduling required by your most important business applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is IBM Tivoli used for?
Tivoli offered software solutions for IT management including scheduling and infrastructure management tools. Tivoli Workload Scheduler was an early workload automation (WLA) solution that is widely regarded as “legacy”. Tivoli was purchased by IBM in 1996 and the Tivoli brand was discontinued in 2013. Today, many enterprises have migrated to WLA solutions designed to manage cloud-based workflows. See what you can achieve with Redwood.
How do I know if I need an alternative to Tivoli?
Many organizations will migrate to new workload automation solutions as their data centers become more complex. Legacy automation tools require custom scripts and are too unreliable to easily scale. Integration can become a challenge as well as organizations require new tools and technologies that aging WLA solutions weren’t designed for. See what you can achieve with Redwood.
Is it easy to migrate to Redwood from IBM Tivoli?
Yes, Redwood makes it easy to migrate from legacy systems including IBM Tivoli products. Redwood works with partners to ensure quick, reliable implementations and also provides hands-off upgrades, performance health checks, consultations and more, so your team can maximize ROI sooner rather than later.
