I use crontab and find it really reliable and powerful.

I agree. Just remember that your crontab is stored in /var/at/tabs/ not in your home directory. Always keep a copy of it. I've lost many a crontab when moving to a new computer or reinstalling the OS on a clean disk because I forgot to back it up. When using crontab -e to edit the crontab always try to make a habit of doing ":w ~/crontab" (if vi is your editor) or something similar to make a copy before you exit.
