Ask HN: Anyone using or have opinions on "enterprise" job schedulers?

Basically cron but centralized. Useful for organizations with lots of applications because:

- Development teams don't have to roll their own solution - Single interface for teams to pause jobs during maintenance windows - Easily see job failures across an entire organization - More advanced job orchestration and workflow capabilities

There are many ways to solve this (purpose-built applications, k8s jobs, cloud services, scheduled pipelines, etc). I am curious about what others have seen or are using.

Very unfortunately, I have mainly seen Jenkins used for this. There must be something better out there.
