Anyone in need of a solution to monitor websites and get cron job execution logs
About EasyCron
EasyCron fully supports standard cron expressions that are used in popular Cron implementations (Cronie, Vixie cron Quartz java scheduler, etc.). EasyCron allows users to specify the execution time of a cron job in three ways, by interval, by cron expression, and by manually choosing. Your scripts might generate output during periodical executions. The feature of cron job execution logging allows saving these outputs for later checks. Once you add a cron job, you may see a list of dates and times when will it be executed in the near future. This is called run-time prediction. If cron job execution fails, separate failure logs can be kept (won't get overridden by newer logs of successful execution), thus you can check the failure logs conveniently. Customized HTTP headers can also be sent with your cron job HTTP requests. The HTTP header customization can be used to do HTTP basic authentication, API auth, or send other instructions to the server, etc.
