Like all good products, OxFF started out as an itch, and we scratched it. We have a client where we created 100+ Extract, Transform and Load (ETL) scripts against their ERP system and stored the data in a data warehouse for use by their internal PowerBI team. Oh! And they required this be performed on a Windows server. Other than Clippy, Task Scheduler has to be one of the worst ideas to come out of Microsoft. Scheduled Task tracking is simply awful. So we wrote OxFF to give us alerts when a script fails with the error message or notifies if it doesn't even run at all!
Then we looked at several of our other clients (some use a Linux server and crontab) and we saw a benefit to them as well. Uptime alerts and SSL certificate expiration notifications were no brainers to add. No more reactive troubleshooting when a server is down, or managing unwieldy spreadsheets tracking SSL certificates - now it is all automated. We ran Oxff in Beta for over a year to make sure it is rock solid, and our customers LOVE it! Now we can be 100% proactive in quickly resolving issues across all of our customers and dozens of servers with thousands of scripts.
Don't you want the same assurance while delighting your customers?
Task Accountability
Have you ever written a script and scheduled it in Windows Task Scheduler or crontab and then were called to troubleshoot if the task is running successfully or not? And if it did run, did it run completely? Or did it run into an error? What was the error? Had to do this on multiple servers? For multiple clients? It can be simply overwhelming maintaining your work.
OxFF was created to consolidate all of your scripts across multiple servers and clients, and report their status in one place. Now you spend less time collecting information from different sources and more time confirming everything is good or quickly troubleshooting the scripts that either checked in with an error or never checked in at all.
One place to see the status of all your scheduled scripts!

SSL Expiration Monitoring
Are you managing multiple SSL certificates? Do you have a spreadhseet of when they expire? Wish to have that automated?
OxFF can monitor the SSL certificate itself, or the entire chain, and you can configure how much lead time you require before being notified that the SSL certificate is nearing expiration. No more scramble to renew and implement on your webhost when a SSL certificate expires!
