Monitor Cron Jobs, Microservices, and More.

Easy cron monitoring

Cronitor solves scheduled task and pipeline observability for your team with a live dashboard for your jobs and instant alerts when things go wrong. Know when critical jobs fail or if they never start and respond more quickly to incidents.

Service and api healthchecks

Constantly monitor the uptime of your websites, APIs, and services and when there's a problem ensure you learn about it first. Create simple network availability healthchecks or build complex tests with multiple assertions.

Instant alerts

Cronitor alerts are fast because we continuously evaluate your monitoring activity. Ensure the right people are notified with easy integrations like Slack, Hipchat and PagerDuty.

How Cronitor Works

Create a new cron job monitor using your cron schedule or import your entire crontab.

Add the ping to your crontab or your script directly. Ping before and after your job to monitor duration.

~ $ crontab -l
# m h dom mon dow   command

*/15 * * * M-F /mysqlbackup.sh && curl
https://cronitor.link/d3x0c1/complete

~ $

Define the rules your pings will be evaluated against. You will be given a unique ping URL.

Create rules that will be applied to your

Instrument your code with Cronitor pings. Ping both /run and /complete endpoints to monitor duration.

~ $ head important_script.py
from urllib2 import urlopen
urlopen('https://cronitor.link/d3x0c1/run')

# Do Everything Here

urlopen('https://cronitor.link/d3x0c1/complete')

Monitor server and API health with rich assertions against status code, response time and response body.
