Bear in mind that at least supervisord and daemontools expect to be the parent of a running, foregrounded process. Monit expects processes to run in the background and generate a pid file, I'm not very familiar with the others. I really enjoy supervisord personally, it feels similar to daemontools in execution but has a somewhat friendlier interface all around.

I second this, supervisord is a pleasure to use, pretty straight forward and quick to get up to speed with how to use it.
