A semi-commercial replacement for cron. It's free for personal use:
Vexus is dedicated to providing something back to the community so personal copies of Avatar are free.
Cron certainly does have limitations. They don't give pricing on their https://www.vexus.ca/ website, which usually means expensive :-)
But free personal use could be useful too, especially on NT which has really bad scheduling. Assuming they'd consider any NT use "personal", of course.
