They are quite different. I figure they can co-exist, though I doubt it is useful to do so unless you have legacy code (two scheduling systems in one application is probably not very transparent).
Btw I do think we need documentation regarding VWMs. And if we plan to support the system in the future, some improvements need be made to the code (such as removing the need to restart your app when you add a VWM).

The VWMS are similar to the crontab as they both can schedule on time. An advantage of the VWMS is that they run in two ways , one is a call every X seconds, the other is via de vwmtask which has a specified time to execute. This means that the VWM itself can schedule tasks to be executed. As far as I know the crontab is a more straightforward run this at X time.
