Servy is an enterprise-grade Windows service wrapper that runs any application (Node.js, Python, .NET, Java, etc.) as a native Windows service with automatic restart, health checks, and real-time CPU/RAM and stdout/stderr monitoring. It ships as a desktop GUI app, a CLI, and a PowerShell module for managing services interactively or in CI/CD pipelines.

Use cases

• run a node.js app as a windows service
• keep a python script running in the background after reboot
• auto-restart a crashed process on windows
• nssm alternative for wrapping apps as services
• monitor cpu and memory of a windows service
• manage windows services via powershell or cli
• run a background worker before user logon

When to choose

• you need to run any executable as a native Windows service without rewriting it
• you want automatic recovery from crashes, hangs, or stops with health checks and alerts
• you need GUI, CLI, and PowerShell interfaces for scripting and CI/CD deployment
• you want real-time monitoring of CPU/RAM and stdout/stderr streaming
• you need enterprise features like gMSA/AD accounts, lifecycle hooks, and log rotation

When to avoid

• you need a service wrapper for Linux (systemd) or macOS (launchd)
• you only target non-Windows platforms
• you need cross-platform containerized service management rather than Windows services
