In UNIX systems, the cron daemon exists to automate tasks that should be done periodically. Unfortunately, Windows provides only a very limited ability to automate tasks. HiBase Task Scheduler comes to the rescue. The program allows you to schedule various tasks. You can run applications at certain times, execute files using Windows file associations, copy/rename/delete files, etc. Task Scheduler has built-in ZIP compression support too.
HiBase Task Scheduler provides you with several modes of scheduling. You can combine calendar dates, days of month/week, times of a day and number of executions per day.
Tasks are organized in tree form. Tasks can be chained (next task starts upon the end of the previous), paralleled (several tasks run simultaneously) or grouped.
The interface is clean and well thought out. The same window is used for all operations. High
stability and a low cost make this application a leading solution in this class of software.
