My startup is a Cronhub customer.

What makes cron-job.org not an alternative for us, is that this they monitor by crawling a URL that you provide. This is limiting and doesn't serve our use case for backend system monitoring.

By contrast, Cronhub gives us a public endpoint that we must ping by a certain interval to say that our service ran in the interval.

We also use their slack integration to show any monitoring failures in our #fires channel!

It's a monitoring service that "just works" and we don't have to maintain it, and if things go wrong we can reach out to someone since we are paying customers.

Also Tigran is very responsive!
