Scheduled Reports

Schedule pre-defined report templates to generate automatically at a chosen frequency and deliver results by email to selected recipients. No manual action required once configured.

Overview

Scheduled Reports in Cloudmon allow IT administrators to automate the generation and delivery of performance, availability, and operational reports. Once configured, a scheduled report runs at the specified frequency and sends the output by email to the selected recipients without any manual intervention. Reports are based on pre-defined templates covering the most common reporting needs across servers, networks, cloud, and more. Reports are generated in HTML format for viewing in a browser, or CSV format for further analysis in spreadsheet tools, as selected when the report is scheduled.

Creating a Scheduled Report

1. Navigate to Reports in the top navigation bar and select the Scheduled Reports tab.
2. Click the Schedule Report button.
3. Fill in the fields as described in the following table.
4. Click Save. The report will run automatically at the configured frequency and send the output to the specified recipients.

Some templates ask for additional fields once they are selected. For example, the Availability SLO Report asks for a Monitoring Type and an SLO Target, and the Inventory Report asks for a Category. Templates can also offer Groups to limit the report to one or more groups. These fields are described in the section for each report.

You can also schedule a report from the All Reports tab.

1. Navigate to Reports in the top navigation bar, open the All Reports tab, and select the report you want to schedule.
2. Click the green Schedule button.

Cloning a Scheduled Report

Cloning lets you duplicate an existing scheduled report and save it as a new one. This is useful when you need the same report template delivered to a different set of recipients, on a different frequency, or scoped to a different customer in an MSP environment, without having to configure everything from scratch.

1. Navigate to Reports in the top navigation bar.
2. Locate the scheduled report you want to clone.
3. Click the Clone icon on that report's row.
4. A copy of the report opens in edit mode, pre-filled with the original name, template, frequency, and recipients.
5. Update the name and adjust any fields as needed, then click Save.

The cloned report is saved as a new scheduled report and runs independently of the original. Changes to the clone do not affect the original, and vice versa.

Bulk Actions

Bulk actions apply the same change to several scheduled reports at once.

1. Navigate to Reports in the top navigation bar and select the Scheduled Reports tab.
2. Select the checkbox beside each report you want to change, or select the checkbox in the header row to select all scheduled reports.
3. The toolbar shows how many reports are selected. Click the settings icon beside the count.
4. Choose Edit, Enable, Disable, or Delete.

To clear the selection, click the X beside the count.

Availability Reports

Availability Reports provide insights into the uptime and downtime of monitored entities over the report period. They cover devices monitored via agents, SNMP network devices, network nodes and services, and synthetic monitors. Reports include availability percentage, downtime duration, and response time metrics. Use the following templates for availability reporting:

• Device Availability Report: uptime and downtime metrics for all monitored devices.
• Network Device Availability Report: uptime and reachability for all SNMP-monitored network devices.
• Application Availability Report: DEM application availability, Apdex scores, and processing times.

Search for "availability" in the template search box to find these templates.

SLA Reports

SLA Reports measure the availability and performance of monitored services against defined service level targets over a selected time period. They provide an objective record of whether service level commitments have been met, useful for management reporting, customer-facing documentation in MSP environments, and compliance auditing.

Select the SLA Report template and set the frequency to Monthly for standard SLA reporting cycles. For MSP deployments, configure the SLA report from within each customer's controller view to scope it to that customer's devices only.

SLO Reports

The Availability SLO Report shows per-monitor availability against an SLO target, with error budget consumed and remaining.

Select the Availability SLO Report template and choose the Monitoring Type to report on. Optionally limit the report to one or more Groups. Set the SLO Target (%), which defaults to 99.9, to the availability objective each monitor is measured against. Enable Include Maintenance Window in Downtime to count time spent in a maintenance window as downtime. It is off by default.

Inventory Reports

The Inventory Report provides resource lists for any feature, such as servers and network devices.

Select the Inventory Report template and choose the Category to list resources for. Optionally limit the report to one or more Groups, and add Tags if needed.

Capacity Planning Reports

Capacity Planning Reports analyse historical resource usage trends across monitored servers and devices, helping IT teams understand how quickly resources are being consumed and when additional capacity will be needed. By reviewing CPU, memory, disk, and network utilisation trends over time, teams can make evidence-based decisions before performance degrades.

Select the Capacity Planning Report template. These reports are most useful when scheduled monthly to give a meaningful trend view over time.

Forecasting Reports

Forecasting Reports use historical data patterns from monitored devices to project future resource utilisation trends, allowing IT teams to anticipate when a server will run out of disk space, when a link will saturate, or when additional compute will be required. Forecasting is most accurate when at least 30 days of historical monitoring data is available.

Select the Forecasting Report template. Schedule monthly alongside the Capacity Planning Report to give management both a historical view and a forward-looking projection.

Available Templates

Many pre-defined templates are available when creating a scheduled report. The table shows a few examples. More are available for other areas, including VMware, Hyper-V, and Nutanix virtualization, cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI, databases, SSL/TLS, Page Load, DNS, Website, REST API, Real User Monitoring, NCM, Meraki, and IPAM, among others. Use the search box in the Report Template field of the Schedule Report form to find any template by keyword, or browse them by category in the Report Catalog.
