Cockpit or alternative?

I'm looking for a self hosted dashboard to monitor various services and logs for multiple servers. A quick search turned up cockpit, but I was curious if anyone had thoughts about it, or if there were better alternatives.

ssh with a shell script

I have some Linux experience but even I run cockpit due to the ease of being able to gather info and running updates easily. In my situation unless I have to make a change I really have no need to interact with the server so it's perfect in my usecase.
