Cronwatch
Cron job monitoring with instant alerts lifecycle tracking
CronWatch helps developers monitor cron jobs and scheduled tasks with simple heartbeat monitoring and lifecycle tracking. Get instant alerts via Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, or Webhooks when jobs fail, run late, timeout, or stop reporting. Setup takes less than a minute with a single ping URL—no agents or SDKs required.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Abhay, the solo developer behind CronWatch.
I built CronWatch after repeatedly running into a frustrating problem: cron jobs tend to fail silently. Whether it's a missed backup, a delayed payment sync, or a broken data pipeline, you often don't discover the issue until customers or teammates notice something is wrong.
I wanted a monitoring tool that was quick to set up, straightforward to use, and focused on scheduled jobs.
With CronWatch, you can monitor cron jobs using a simple heartbeat URL or use lifecycle monitoring for deeper execution tracking. It sends alerts through Email, Slack, Discord, Telegram, and Webhooks when jobs fail, run late, timeout, or stop reporting.
Current features include:
• Heartbeat monitoring
• Lifecycle monitoring
• Multi-channel alerts
• Execution history
• Analytics and scheduled reports
• Smart reminders and recovery notifications
I'd genuinely love your feedback—whether it's about the onboarding experience, pricing, missing features, or anything else you think could make the product more useful.
Thanks for checking out CronWatch! 🚀
