There is a comparison with cronitor at https://healthchecks.io/docs/healthchecks_cronitor_comparison/. That page only talks about cron job monitoring, though, and cronitor has other functionality as well. Source for healthchecks.io is at https://github.com/healthchecks/healthchecks, so you could potentially host it somewhere yourself. I like having that possibility, but at the moment, I'm just using the instances at healthchecks.io. -- regards, kushal
