Hey Product Hunt! 👋

Hey Product Hunt! 👋

My name is Łukasz. I just finished working on CronMonitor.app, an application for monitoring CRON jobs on Linux systems or the Task Scheduler on Microsoft Windows systems.

Jobs added to CRON, such as database backups, can stop working for various reasons, such as lack of disk space (after all, no one checks how much space is left on the server every day). In this case, we won't receive a notification :( We'll likely only find out that backups aren't being performed when we need to restore a database backup, for example, after a major system failure.

Problem I Solved:

CronMonitor.app is a simple and intuitive way to monitor cron jobs. If one or more jobs don't complete at the scheduled time, you'll receive an immediate notification via one or more configured channels, such as Discord, Slack, or email.

What Makes CronMonitor Special:

Configuration is very simple and takes literally minutes.
No additional software or APM agent installation required.
History of completed jobs with precise times.
Statistics of completed jobs.
Multi-channel alerts: Slack, Discord, email.
Works everywhere: Docker, Linux, Windows Task Scheduler.

I'd love to hear your feedback:

Have you had any configuration issues? CRON?
Do you monitor your CRON jobs, and if so, how?
Do you debug failed CRON jobs, and if so, how?
What features are missing from CronMonitor?

Best regards! 🚀
