Save time and money by automating your work. Record macros or use the easy script language to automate and control all your Windows applications, automate software processes and assign tasks to schedules, desktop shortcuts or hotkeys. Perform complex tasks with a single mouse click, or schedule your computer to perform tasks while you are away. The simple natural-English script language is designed for anyone to pick up, with features for controlling any Windows application and powerful technology such as Screen Image Recognition and Screen Scraping Text Capture. More than 250 actions and standard programming constructs include the ability to send keystrokes and mouse events to other applications, wait for and activate windows and screen objects, perform internet tasks, run programs and commands, execute files, read from and write to files, copy, move and delete files, control applications with DDE, control Office apps, use VBScript, ActiveX/COM objects, access DLLs and Win32 functions, import, extract, convert and transfer data, even create interfaces with the built in Dialog Designer and more. A full featured, easy to use, editor, code builders and a debugger aid script creation. Use the Pro version to compile scripts into standalone EXE files which can be launched on any Windows PC. You do not have to be - or hire - a programmer to use Macro Scheduler. For complete ease of use, you can record macros to automatically create efficient, reliable scripts that can be edited and modified later. Recorded macros can even be compiled into standalone Windows applications.Automate any software process - from disk maintenance to data migration, software testing, report generation, automated installations, application integration, file transfers, network and internet tasks, application monitoring, enterprise automation, remote administration and any other task. Supports Windows 2000, XP, Vista and Windows 7 as well as Windows 2003 Server and Windows 2008 Server.

Swiss-Knife - Easy to Learn or to Use - Great Support

Pros
(I'm a professional programmer - so trust me) * Usefull Debugger * Step-by-Step execution possible * Easy compiler creates real standalone EXE-Files * EXE-Files with user interaction, or without, you decide * EXE-Files with full GUI or only with an icon next to the "clock" in the right lower corner or invisible which makes it comparable with Windows "services", you decide * Many helpful and easy wizards or interface gadgets * It's alive; constantly software improvements in short periods * F1 is doing what F1 has to do: it helps! * Did I say it is fast (in developement and in execution)? * Did I say it is easy? Use it for: ----------- * Easy altering of HTML or TXT or XLS or WORD * Modifying or creating code lines in VB, C, PHP or Basic (in their specific editors) * Modifying data in databases using their specific editors * Being a interface between two worlds (i.e. ERP and Reporting-Software) * A 1000 more (use your own fantasy now!)
Cons
It seems you didn't use it in the past.
Summary
If you want to do something with your PC by your own remember Macro Scheduler first.
Flexible, speedy, works and saves time

Pros
Easy to understand and use Record script for future editing Outstanding value Great customer support
Cons
None. At times I've found that I've taken a slightly complicated route to doing things but these improve with time.
Summary
Amazing program saves tons of time by automating life.
hansencharleyNovember 15, 2011
Pros
This program is one of the best programs I've ever owned. I can't live without it now. I use it to: 1) Automate keyboard and mouse functions that I use constantly. One stroke of a button saves me thousands of keystrokes. 2) Open websites and automate button clicks, etc. 3) I also use it with Microsoft's Speech Recognition program to automate processes at my voice command. It saves my sore and tired hands. 4) Automate responses to emails. I recommend this. Give it a try.
Cons
None. I've contacted their support three times and each time got immediate relevant responses.
Summary
I recommend this product to family and friends. Even if you aren't computer savy the tutorials and the newer functions that don't require coding experience are amazing. You'll save yourself a lot of repetitive strain and increase productivity instantly.
It has saved me many keystrokes.
pbengelsDecember 3, 2010
Pros
Very powerful but accessible to those who don't know a programming language. Good Help file, and lots of tips on the MJT Web site. Scripts can be created very quickly. Macros can be saved as .exe files, making them portable.
Cons
Learning curve (if your needs are very limited you might get away with a simpler program).
Summary
I've been using Macro Scheduler for more than a decade. Much more limited in its early years, it's grown to accommodate many techie demands and some of its exotic features are beyond me. But it still works well for non-technical people like me who like to automate things but don't want to become programmers.
Be careful - money back guarantee not honored!
Sandra_BJuly 17, 2006
Pros
- good documentation
Cons
- I purchased this software based on the nice website and good documentation, but it turned out I can not use it for my automation task. <p>- I ended up using VBS to automate my task, and asked for money back <p>- They did not refund it until I threatened them with the BBB
Summary
A macro program with limitless possibilities!
smfranzenJanuary 12, 2006
Pros
I was searching for a Macro program that could easily automate common tasks, but also seemlessly extend the functionality of my existing programs. <p> <p>Macro Scheduler is significantly more powerful than most alternatives for automating complex tasks. It also has some powerful plugins not mentioned in the product description. Frankly, there aren't many things you can't do with this product. <p> <p>Another big plus... This company is really interested in user feedback and has great support. <p> <p>Highly Recommended!
Cons
Takes a little time to learn the more advanced capabilities.
Summary
Decent, but should look at AutoHotKey, Limnor, WinBatch, & AutoIT also/first.
CNETNOWJune 23, 2005
Pros
This automation product, is one of the few which I have strong mixed feelings about. <p> <p>1. The ability to mix in VBScript is absolutely brillant. If you are a VB users, than this feature is something to love. Its like VBScript on massive steroids. <p> <p>2. Can compile to .exe <p> <p>3. Many helpful tools to make script. <p> <p>4. Can be learned quickly. Futhermore, you are using VBScript commands which is a very widely accepted standard in the Windows world.
Cons
1. PRICE. Some nasty charges... <p> <p>2. Freeware competition is close to and superior to it in many areas. If you buy this product, AutoIt and AutoHotKey, may make you feel you wasted your money. AutoIt can do just about everything Macro Scheduler can do. <p> <p>AutoIT users have even made conversion scripts for switching VBScript code to AutoIt code. Therefore the transition for Visual Basic people is not too hard to easy. The AutoIt scripting language is as easy to a little bit easier to learn in comparison to VBScript. AutoHotKey's scripting language version is easier than VBScript and AutoIt to learn. <p> <p>4. WinBatch is arguably superior in many areas to Macro Scheduler. WinBatch is also technically superior to AutoIt and AutoHotKey as well. On top of this, WinBatch arguably does a better job at price/charges for its product. But WinBatch's scripting language can be equally to more difficult in comparison to VBScript, AutoIt, and AutoHotKey. <p> <p>5. Users of Macro Scheduler may also want to consider Limnor (codeless) programming system if they want to develop small applications. <p> <p>Overall, all of Macro Scheduler competition makes it really hard to say yes. BUT, it is a decent product and if you don't want to learn another complex scripting language and stick with VBScript than it might be the way to go for you.
Summary
Everything you need
IanSmithMay 13, 2005
Pros
Microsoft came in and said there was no way to automate a particular problem. I downloaded the app and had a working fix in one day. The learning curve was a wee bit steep, but nothing that couldn't be beaten. <p> <p>The product has incredible depth - if you just want to record mouse and key clicks it does that without a glitch. However, if you choose to delve into the real features the hand coding tools are as comprehensive as you could want. From simple tweaking in an intuitive script language to embedding VB and compiling into a stand alone exe - it's as powerful as you need it to be.
Cons
The only thing that got to me was in debug mode - the script runs from the cursor point. I've not yet found the setting that lets me run from the start each time, but I realise the benefits of the default settings.

Bargain, It WORKS, Great Support
RachaelThomasMay 10, 2005
Pros
I have accomplished my goal of automating Microsoft Street & Trips for showing real estate broker market data. <p>Point 1: The product works <p>Point 2: The product WORKS! Yippee! <p>Point 3: I thought that the tech support couldn't get any better than the pre-sale service, but I was wrong! Marcus in tech support virtually 'adopted' my project (visitation via remote desktop software provided by MJT [g])to help me in tutorial fashion with the actual code (not even just conceptual solutions, which would have been great, but in working out the actual code of my application). <p>The ONLY other company that comes close is Infragistics, and they sell a $1,000 package (including about $300 for their annual support). How Marcus can provide such terrific support for a $75 package is totally beyond my understanding, but I certainly appreciate this FREE support! I am a 'raving fan', and I would buy ANY software that I needed that MJT produced. I also plan to contract with the company for consulting on an extension of my project. The software is a GEM, and the support is one of the "top-two" support experiences that I have ever experienced before and after a software buy!
