### "Super easy way to set up cronjobs on heroku"

April 27, 2023

5.0

It made for a very seamless quick transition from cronjobs on a VM to cronjobs on heroku

Pros

Almost effortless to spin up, had a very familiar interface that duplicated what we were doing with cronjobs on a VM

Cons

The logging interface can be a bit verbose/noisy and the UI in the webpage feels a bit crammed sometimes.

### "A Review Needs a Title?"

April 24, 2023

5.0

It gets the job done.

Pros

It's integrated into Heroku. I would've just added cron jobs to the EC2 my site is running on, but that is not intuitive considering how much is abstracted away on the Heroku platform.

Cons

I have to sign in to my Heroku account and then navigate to Cron To Go through the Heroku platform because of (I'm assuming) how the SSO is handled. I can't just go straight to Cron To Go whenever I see a job failed, for instance.

### "Simple, affordable and powerful job scheduler."

September 8, 2022

5.0

Pros

Easy to setup as an Heroku-addon. Reliable and allows for running one-time jobs and powerful scaling options.

Cons

Would be nice with a tier that's cheaper than the current bronze ($9/month) for scheduling a single job.

### "Do more with Cron to GO"

July 12, 2023

5.0

Exceptional

Pros

Very configurable out of the box with Unix style formats. great efficacy in running with superior logging adding to the accountability. Great product overall, fairly priced.

Cons

Would be great to access the run log within the cron to go dashboard as well instead of within heroku logs.

Reason for choosing Cron To Go

Very configurable, Unix style, great logging on when the schedule last run

### "Great Option for a More Full Featured Heroku Cron Scheduler!"

April 24, 2023

5.0

Pros

Easy to use, does the job for what you're looking for in a cron scheduler. Not overly fancy, but it doesn't need to be.

Cons

Price seems a bit high for what is at the end of the day a very basic app. But given there is no competition it makes sense!

### "Logs are terrible"

January 13, 2022

2.0

Pros

The fact that it's built into Heroku is why I chose this. It's a basic cron and for that it seems to suit our needs.

Cons

Each run of the job should have its own log file. Currently they're all mashed together making it really difficult to go back and diagnose issues.

Review Source

Response from Crazy Ant Labs

January 16, 2022

Hey Will, Thanks for your feedback. Is the only problem that execution logs are "mashed together"? If you click "View job logs", you'll indeed see all logs available on Heroku for that specific job. However, you can see them separated per execution if you click "View job history" in the same menu, and then expand a specific execution. Note that we don't store your logs, but only pull the available logs from Heroku. We recommend adding a logging add-on to keep and view historic logs.

5.0

Pros

I installed Cron to Go very easily, and now it saves me some time.

Cons

I would like to find a button « export jobs » from the staging server to the prod server.I had to copy past all jobs manually.

Hey Eytan! You can actually \*Import\* jobs into your new add-on from an existing Cron To Go add-on (see here for more info: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/crontogo#importing-jobs) Feel free to reach out to our support via the in-app chat if you need any help!

### "check it"

October 17, 2023

4.0

Pros

easy way to create cronjobs, fast and easy instalation

Cons

cost and trial is too short to compare with other products

Review Source

Response from Crazy Ant Labs

December 19, 2023

THanks for your feedback Roman! Cron To Go's price is quite competitive in comparison to the other paid alternatives. In cases where it makes sense to extend the trial, feel free to reach out to our team via in-app chat so we can extend it for you, but keep in mind that paid plans are billed prorated so if you just switch to a paying plan for another week, you'll only be charged by Heroku for that week.

### "Cron To Go recommended"

4.0

Pros

\- Ease of use - Feature rich - Intuitive User Interface

Cons

\- Relatively high price - Similar service on the market with lower pricing

Response from Crazy Ant Labs

November 23, 2023

Thanks for your feedback Jeffrey! If I understand which product you're comparing Cron To Go to, our price is actually much lower when you take into account that Cron To Go doesn't have a limit on the number of executions (amongst other features) :)

### "Easy to set up, but unreliable execution time"

May 1, 2023

3.0

Pros

Ability to schedule tasks to run every minute

Cons

Tasks are not always run at the minute they are scheduled (at least not with Heroku, but that might also be affected by difference in time taken to boot up a dyno to run the task).

Review Source

Response from Crazy Ant Labs

May 10, 2023

Hey Rune, If you'd like jobs to start at the :00 mark each minute use the UTC/etc timezone. It may still take some time for the dyno to start, depending on your dyno type and your app slug). Feel free to reach out to our support via the in-app chat.

### "Avaliação do cron to go"

April 27, 2023

Muito boa, porém, não cheguei a usar muito porque queria que fosse apenas para testes

Fácil de implementar usando o Cron To Go

Não foi gratuito, visto que o heroku era um servidor de testes.

January 4, 2022

5.0

Overall good UI and does what is required for our business

Pros

Daily running jobs are awesome, we use those extensively. We like Cron To Go because of its flexibility

Cons

Timezone feature should be a part of the paid plan despite of its level. Otherwise for couple scripts you need to buy almost highest tier.

Reason for choosing Cron To Go

Flexibility, error handling, re-run functionality. Number of scripts running
