WUG (What's Up Gold) is pretty good. I've used it before to create custom monitors. I haven't really used it much lately, though. several years in fact.

Their free version is crippled only in that it will do a total of 10 processes. That is, it could do one process on 10 servers, 5 processes on 2 servers, etc. The paid version is nearly without limits. One caveat. Just because a monitor says a process is running does not mean it is functioning correctly. One could probably set up a more rigorous battery of "tests" for checking on things.
