For those preferring a self-hosted oss monitoring solution, Jenkins is a good multi-purpose choice (it does more than continuous integration!).

I inherited a legacy application with tons of cron jobs running scripts on the production server. Instead of risking moving our jobs to jenkins, we're simply using jenkin's post endpoint to post job results from the cron jobs themselves. It's not perfect, and doesn't give us all the goodies listed above, but it does give us more visibility on the jobs themselves until we can move them all off reliably. +1 from me if you are in a similar situation.
