We have tried that as it is easy to learn the status of the job and view logs. But had problems while running many jobs simultaneously. Some jobs will hang. So now we are using Cron + Monitoring External Jobs Plugin in Jenkins(https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Monitoring+external+jobs https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Monitoring+exter...). This gives the performance of Cron and the above mentioned advantages of Jenkins.
