We have an issue for that:

Yes, you're right.

We can use one of the openwisp-config hooks: 
https://github.com/openwisp/openwisp-config/#pre-reload-hook

Maybe the post-registration-hook, since it doesn't need to be done all the 
time, once the empty crontab is created, if the device is rebooted, cron 
will start automatically at its next boot.

Eg:

touch /etc/openwisp/post-registration-hook
chmod +x /etc/openwisp/post-registration-hook

vim /etc/openwisp/post-registration-hook

#!/bin/sh
touch /etc/crontabs/root
/etc/init.d/cron start

# save
