Firebase Crashlytics is a no-brainer if you are already using any of the other Firebase suite of products, as its integration is very easy if you are already using these in your app. If you have cross-platform Android, iOS, and macOS apps, you should also consider Firebase Crashlytics to provide a unified across your platforms. If your app is only on Android or only on Apple, then you may be better off remaining with the default Apple Developer or Google Play Developer Console crash collection experiences.

Usability
Cisco
It is very user friendly as we were quickly able to adjust to its usability and the vendor who onboarded us with the product delivered phenomenal after sales vendor support. The dashboards are also easy to setup so you can view what is relevant to yourself as a System Administrator.

It is very easy for non-developer staff to use the Firebase Console and gather information for the development team. Developers will find it straightforward to integrate Firebase Crashlytics into new or existing codebases using Google's in-depth developer documentation. I cannot think of an easier cross-platform solution to use, and because of that I wish it supported more platforms!

It is distinguished from these programs because the platform provides visualizations of application processes, showing the interplay between various parts and services. Understanding the architecture of complicated apps and finding their weak spots is greatly aided by this.

Truly speaking, it is also a quite good tool for crash reports, but Firebase Crashlytics was better to use when you are using the Firebase Realtime database as your DB, so the integrations become much easier.
