    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.

    Google AdMob is the best choice in my opinion for any developer or company looking for a reliable way to monetize their app traffic and generate revenue from relevant ads displayed inside their mobile app, and it can be easily integrated into any IOS or Android App.

    • 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.

    Usability

    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!

    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.

    No special reason for choosing Google AdMob. Out point is easy to gain appropriate knowledge from youtube.com and people who work with us. We won't have another similar application so far. However, we feel it works well and makes us happy because of easy function and experience. So I recommend this if we need to apply this for our company activity.

    • Before I got into it my other friends told me there are way better Ad providers. But being a Google fan I still signed up.
    • Now I remember writing to AdMob, requesting them to give me earning rates... But they never replied. So zero return on investment. They just keep you guessing.
