Task scheduler monitoring for Cron, Windows Task Scheduler and application jobs
Monitor every scheduled job, batch process and background task. Detect missed executions, unexpected runtimes and failure patterns before they affect downstream systems or regulatory obligations.

What it puts in front of your teams
Every capability is available from day one. No additional instrumentation required beyond the initial agent deployment.
See a live demonstrationMissed job detection
Alert immediately when a job does not run at its scheduled time, regardless of the scheduler type.
Execution timeline
Historical view of every job run with start time, duration, exit code and output.
Job metadata history
Track which version of a job ran, what parameters it received and what it produced.
Alerting on failure
Immediate notification when a job exits with an error, with the full output log attached.
Runtime trend analysis
Identify jobs that are taking progressively longer to complete, catching capacity and data growth issues before they miss SLA windows.
Dependency chain visibility
Map upstream and downstream job dependencies so a missed execution surfaces the full chain of systems that will be affected.
From signal to action in seconds
Deploy once
A lightweight Edge agent deploys to your environment. Auto-discovery maps services, hosts and applications without manual configuration.
Collect everything
A nightly interest calculation batch runs 47 minutes late due to a database lock. Task Scheduler Monitoring alerts the finance operations team before they discover the missing figures in the morning report.
Act with confidence
Anomaly detection, root cause analysis and AI-assisted recommendations give your teams the context to act fast and correctly.
Signals captured by JOB
A nightly interest calculation batch runs 47 minutes late due to a database lock. Task Scheduler Monitoring alerts the finance operations team before they discover the missing figures in the morning report.
What changes for the business
No silent failures
Every missed or failed job generates an immediate alert, eliminating the silent batch failure problem.
Protected reporting
Finance, compliance and regulatory reporting jobs are monitored end-to-end, with evidence for auditors.
Predictable windows
Historical runtime data makes scheduling windows predictable and resource conflicts avoidable.
Better together with the Edge platform
JOB writes its data to the Edge Datalake, making it queryable and correlatable alongside every other module in real time.
Task Scheduler Monitoring questions, answered
What does Edge Task Scheduler Monitoring monitor?
Edge Task Scheduler Monitoring captures signals including job start time, job duration, exit code, schedule deviation, consecutive failure count, output size, and provides missed job detection, execution timeline, job metadata history and more.
How is Edge Task Scheduler Monitoring deployed?
Edge connects through lightweight agents or agentless connectors — typically 2–4 hours for a standard environment — and can be deployed on-premises, in your private cloud or in a regional cloud, so monitoring data stays within your jurisdiction.
Does it work with the monitoring tools we already use?
Yes. Edge is designed for a no-rip-and-replace approach and connects alongside your existing stack, with 100+ integrations across cloud, containers, databases, APM agents, telemetry standards and alerting channels.
How does JOB connect to the rest of Edge?
JOB writes its data to the Edge Datalake, so it can be queried and correlated in real time with application traces, logs, infrastructure metrics and real user data from the other Edge modules.
How is it priced?
Pricing is tailored to the scale of your environment, the modules you choose and your deployment model. Start with a short, no-obligation discovery session and NCG will prepare a scoped proposal.
