We do currently have Jobtrac v11 SP3 running in production, but it hasn't been the most stable or reliable version by any means. The addition of Datacom was a challenge on the install, and has added more overhead and pain as well. Reporting used to be a lot easier to deal with, and response time for some commands is now outrageous thanks to Datacom.
Also, we had one instance where a job abended but Jobtrac marked it as complete, so I opened a ticket with CA. Their answer was pretty much that they didn't know what happened, and since I was never able to recreate the problem, they said it's working like it's supposed to. Essentially, they blew off the whole issue. If it were possible to go back and run 3.5 unsupported, I'd be very, very tempted. It was rock-solid and never gave us anything near the grief we've had so far with R11...
