M/Monit Review
M/Monit monitors distributed computer systems, auto-restarts failed processes, and provides a unified dashboard for managing 2–1000+ hosts.
Verdict
M/Monit is a mature, self-hosted infrastructure monitoring tool built around the open-source Monit agent. Its key strength is automated remediation — restarting crashed daemons or suspending runaway processes without human intervention. It targets sysadmins managing Linux/Unix servers and is priced as a one-time purchase, making it cost-effective versus SaaS alternatives, though it requires on-premises setup.
