The Future of Watchman Monitoring

Reliable, Stable, and Here for the Long Term

Watchman Monitoring has always been built on trust and dependability, and we intend to carry that forward. We are not chasing trends. We are focused on making Watchman Monitoring a tool you can rely on for years.

Since we acquired Watchman Monitoring, we have focused on getting up to speed—learning the codebase, reconnecting with the community, and understanding what’s working and what needs attention.

Our goal is straightforward: to make Watchman Monitoring the most reliable, focused, and community-driven monitoring platform in the space.

Monitoring First, Always

Watchman Monitoring will remain a monitoring-only solution. We double down on what Watchman Monitoring does best: deep, high-quality monitoring across platforms that RMMs often leave behind—macOS, Linux, and Chromebooks.

A Steady, Intentional Roadmap

We are taking small steps first so we can build a strong foundation. Over the next couple of years, you can expect a mix of infrastructure and architecture improvements, bug fixes, usability enhancements, and new features.

The next major feature coming is Outgoing Webhooks. That will let you integrate Watchman Monitoring with tools like Slack, Teams, Zapier, IFTTT, and PSAs or RMMs that accept webhooks.

At the same time, we are building a HaloPSA integration so that teams using Halo can receive Watchman Monitoring alerts natively.

Once those are released, we will shift focus to a Google Workspace integration. That will let you monitor Chromebooks directly inside Watchman Monitoring—a step toward broader coverage of devices.

Shaping the Future Together

After Chromebook monitoring is live, we will open the conversation for what comes next. We’re already investigating a new Linux agent, HTTP checks for website or service uptime monitoring, and more plugins.

Our current direction is to rewrite the linux agent. We want it to be maintainable and high performance. We want the roadmap to reflect what users really need. That means listening to the community and building together. If you have ideas or feedback, we’d love to hear from you in the Watchman Monitoring Community Forum.

Let us know if you have any thoughts or feedback.
