Azure Monitor vs. Firebase Crashlytics

We were able to get a single pane of glass for all our monitoring needs on Azure Monitor. However, we would like to see it improve to auto scale out and scale in depending on the load without human intervention. This can help us get to the No Ops model and rely on automated processes rather than manual intervention.

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.

• It supports all the Azure PAAS services.
• Can monitor both infrastructure and application

Incentivized

• Providing stack traces that are useful when users have crashes.
• Tracking crashes per version (app and OS) so we know whether to release a version to everyone instead of a subset.
• Provides trending crsahes/problems if there's a spike in issues so we can get on it quickly.

• Custom metrics
• Ease of use

• Navigation between the issue listing and details is something difficult to understand for the new user.
• Pannel takes time in loading may be because of analytics data but it can be reduce.
• Not provide accurate line number in case of proguarded apps.

Because its fulfilling our basic and necessary requirements that can be an only and enough reason to renew the subscription.

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!

I have not had to work with Azure Monitor support, so it is difficult to say how well the support team is. I assume that Azure has a well-versed team on the customer service side to assist with any issues customers may have. I may need them in the feature.

While other tools have their own unique capability, Azure Monitor helps us monitor essential PAAS services that are not supported by other tools. So even though we have one other APM tool, we still rely on Azure Monitor for some of the special PAAS services, this is a huge advantage.

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.
