## Reviews

### "Simple and easy to use" — 5.0/5

> **Indy** | *30 November 2024* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Simple to use and does exactly what it claims, and supports a wide range of integrations third-party libraries for integrating within projects. We're big users of the Terraform provider to automatically provision health checks alongside our scheduled jobs
> 
> **Cons**: If I was being picky I'd say the lack of overall metrics for a project/account in the website, but we just use the Prometheus exporter.

### "A simple and reliable monitoring tool for cron jobs" — 5.0/5

> **Anonymous User** | *1 December 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Really simple alerting rules - you only need to set how often you expect the cron job to happen and the grace period.

I also like that I can use emails to trigger alerts.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish the email rules had a little more customisability - e.g.: one email address with rules which multiple cron jobs can be linked to, this might be helpful with notifications from my Synology NAS.
> 
> A really solid and simple service - it reliably notifies me whenever one of my cron jobs break.

### "Healthchecks.io - The Go-To for cron job monitoring" — 5.0/5

> **Sadiq** | *21 October 2024* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its simplicity. I love how easy it is to get started with setting up monitoring for my cron jobs. The web interface is clean and functional.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't have anything in the cons column for this service.

### "Must-have in cronjobs" — 5.0/5

> **Simone** | *1 December 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is extremely easy to use and its integration with curl makes it sooo comfortable to be used in almost any existing script
> 
> **Cons**: The projects in the free versions are limited, but I can understand that developers want people to buy the Pro version
> 
> It is a piece of software that was suggested by a friend of mine and I always use it. It is a must-have in any cronjob script, to ensure that it actually run successfully. The feature to directly report an explicit error situation, simply with an HTTP GET request makes incident investigation much easier. A life saver tool\!

### "It just works\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *5 December 2024* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is one of the rare products that works and is reliable.
> 
> **Cons**: It is so reliable that sometimes I forget I use it at all.
> 
> Very well-made and thought out product - a pleasure to use and recommend it.
