Cron To Go vs. Heroku's scheduler

Heroku offers their own scheduler for free, so why use Cron To Go?

  • Cron To Go works on all dyno types—standard dynos as well as perf, private, and shield dynos.
  • Cron To Go offers flexible scheduling options, with 60 second precision, using the familiar Unix cron format including every X minutes.
  • Cron To Go monitors your job executions and presents real-time logs to debug your tasks, in addition to sending you mail and webhook notifications.
  • Cron To Go lets you set alternative timezones, in addition to the default UTC.
  • Cron To Go offers an API and Heroku CLI plugin to automate your task scheduling.
  • Cron To Go may not be free like Heroku scheduler, but it is a production-grade service that provides priceless quality and reliability.
  • Cron To Go offers real-time chat, email support and premium support, providing answers to all your questions.

How does one choose between them?

Fully managed and reliable scheduler

Cron To Go is a distributed, scalable and reliable cloud scheduler. Cron is no longer a single point of failure with guaranteed at-least-once delivery to your job targets. In case of failures, schedules are re-triggered to assure they are delivered at least once.

Flexible Job Scheduling

You can define schedules with a 60 seconds precision and in different time zones using the familiar Unix cron format or with simple rate expressions so that your jobs run multiple times a day, on specific days and time of the week or of the month.

Monitoring and logging

Monitor your job executions and view real-time logs to debug your tasks in addition to e-mail and webhook notifications.

Enterprise-Grade Security

We meet a variety of compliance, auditing, and accountability requirements. You can support multiple geographic data centers for compatibility with various local privacy laws.

One-Off dynos support

Cron To Go will spawn one-off dynos with your commands and environment to save on costs. No need to keep a clock dyno or a web dyno 24/7 to respond to scheduled HTTP requests.
