Self-hosted cron job monitoring with zero dependencies — node server.js and done

The problem

Your cron jobs fail silently. You find out hours later when damage is done.

What we built

Cron Heartbeat Monitor is a self-hosted monitoring server for cron jobs and scheduled tasks.

  • Heartbeat pings to track job execution
  • MISSED and LATE detection with configurable grace periods
  • SMTP email alerts and webhook support
  • REST API + web dashboard included
  • Zero dependencies — Node.js only, no database, no Python
  • Starts with a single command: node server.js

Why self-hosted?

SaaS monitoring tools charge $17-99/month. This is a one-time purchase.
Your data never leaves your server.

Get it

payhip.com/b/kJdzK — $29 one-time.
