What problems is Cron To Go solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am working for a Big-4 consulting firm. For our Salesforce/Heroku implementation, we have been using various technologies. For scheduling jobs in Heroku, we started using "Cron to go". Which is very easy to use in Heroku with multiple time zones and less coding for the setup. Indeed a great feature for Heroku applications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Calendar Management Application"

"Excellent product and customer service"

5/5

What do you like best about Cron To Go?

Saggi and his team are amazing. They are building an incredible product also provide amazing customer service. My requests are addressed resolved quickly and Saggi is often the one helping me. Having access to the creator of a software product is a rare and valuable opportunity for a customer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cron To Go?

I have no complaints about this product at the moment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cron To Go solving and how is that benefiting you?

I needed a scheduling tool that alerted me to job failures and Cron To Go provides multiple options for notifications. In addition, I didn't want to keep a dyno running 24/7 just to run daily jobs. Luckily, Cron To Go runs all jobs on one-off dynos which saves me a considerable amount of money.

I've used other scheduling tools in the past, but they've all been prone to failure and difficult to use. Cron To Go is the only scheduler I've implemented that I can count on to reliably execute my jobs, alert me when there is an issue, and provide the necessary resources to help me when I need it.

It's an elegant solution that focuses on solving the most important challenges related to scheduling apps on the Heroku platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Cron To Go - Scheduler to Go on Heroku"

5/5

What do you like best about Cron To Go?

It's easy interface and cron syntax that makes it easy for users to schedule their jobs in cloud! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cron To Go?

I wish it has a way to continue running the current process if it is not finished before the next invocation of it starts. Cron To Go promised to look into this feature request and would implement it if possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Cron Tool for Heroku"

5/5

What do you like best about Cron To Go?

It is very easy to configure crons in their interface, and I am confident that they will run as scheduled. I have never had a reliability issue with them. I also love how you can see the history of when your cron ran and easily view the logs from it. Just a simple and easy way to run crons.

Customer service is also great even though I am in the +9 timezone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cron To Go?

Hmmm. It might be cool if there was a standalone mobile app where I could view/manually run jobs from time to time. I can't really think of anything bad about the service so this is more of a feature request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cron To Go:

If you are on Heroku this is certainly the best cron interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cron To Go solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need an easy interface for running crons and I didn't want to build something myself. My production app runs in a private VPC in aws but I am using Cron To Go + a tunnel to run a few recurring tasks. Before, I was using Heroku scheduler which does not expose an actual cron interface but rather lets you choose things like "run every 10 minutes" etc. Cron To Go is much more flexible because you can use actual cron syntax.

You can also easily see logs and the execution history of your jobs. If something happens that I did not expect its a really easy first debugging place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best Cron job service there is!"

5/5

What do you like best about Cron To Go?

It’s really simple and easy to use. The schedule is both extremely flexible (using Cron after all) but also has a bunch of built in scheduling options to choose from to quickly start. Monitoring and email notifications are also great because I always know if my jobs fail Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cron To Go?

Nothing much to dislike. I hope they’ll offer the product as an independent SaaS soon! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Cron To Go:

Probably the best cloud scheduler in the world! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cron To Go solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed a simple way to run background tasks to maintain our data warehousing solution and sync a bunch of systems with ours, and Cron To Go fit our requirements like a glove with its reliable scheduling and simple interface Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Reliable service, great UI, fantastic support!"

5/5

What do you like best about Cron To Go?

- Jobs are always executed on time. We've had 100% reliability so far.

- The setup process (to make a job) is super easy. It took maybe 3 minutes to schedule 5 jobs using the editor.

- It supports native CRON logic (e.g. 5 * * * *) which means there is zero learning curve if you're already familiar with CRON.

- The granularity for scheduling is much more fine-grained than Heroku Scheduler. You can schedule jobs every minute, five minutes, 30 minutes, hour, day, month, etc.

- The UI is real-time (it's nice to see the status of your jobs when they're actually running) and there's no delay to start/stop jobs.

- The notifications alert you for failed jobs (caused by bugs in your code or platform issues with Heroku). This has saved me a couple times.

- The support is amazing. The founder reached out personally to help me set everything up and has been there to answer any questions. He was really open to feedback, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cron To Go?

- No dislikes, but it would be great to set a threshold for notifications (e.g. alert after X jobs fail in Y minutes) . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cron To Go solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use Cron To Go to execute command line tasks for our Python Flask web application. It was a lot easier than a complex job/task queue and has zero overhead.

We run all of our billing (invoices, processing payments, etc.), trial (downgrade at end of trial, clean up unused resources, etc.), reports (weekly summary, etc.), and garbage collection (cache purging) through Cron To Go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
