Good task scheduling software

[Nav999]

Hello peeps

I'm looking at implementing a Task Scheduling software on a client's PHP platform for executing batch processes.

The processes will be setup as PHP functions that can be called via a call to the file using specific params.

I'm looking for an easy to use yet powerful and well designed scheduling tool that will allow a novice/junior technical person to setup a semi-complex scheduled tasks.

After 1/2 day of googling and reading posts, I've only come across one such PHP software that does this and a hosted solution:

1) phpJobScheduler
<snip>

2) <snip> (hosted solution)

Do you have experience with any other software that can be installed into a LAMP platform or run on a standalone PC that has all of the features mentioned above and doesn't cost a million?

Thanks
Nav

I don't know of any, most people do these via cron using custom built scripts.
