Firebase Crashlytics vs. UXCam App Analytics

Crashlytics is almost a defacto standard in the Android world for tracking crashes in the field. I've used it on the last 4 Android projects I've been on. It's not as helpful on iOS' stacktraces but I'm not sure if anything would be better because iOS stack traces are from ObjC code which is not as useful as Java stacktraces.

UXCam App Analytics help identify the user pain points and improvement areas within our app. It helps observe the app from a customer's perspective and hence communication around any new updates with stakeholders get easy. These can be times when we aren't able to view the complete recordings due to delays in loading or randomisation of samples.

• Can get the device detail an actual state like RAM, Storage, Display Size, etc.
• Can get the class name and line number where crash occur.
• Its work in realtime so we can reduce the time of issue finding and resolution.

• User flow mapping. It shows how users are navigating in the app.
• App crashes
• User session recordings
• Segmentation on devices, OS versions, processors etc

• Sometimes UI of Firebase Crashlytics is quit difficult to understand for new users.
• There can be a proper discretion for all the features that is offered.
• There can be api crash report also.

Incentivized

• Loading time is high due to which we have to wait a lot sometimes
• In heatmaps, more properties can be added eg. User cohort, experiment id
• Provide filters to easily check the recordings by screen and feature dropoffs

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

As mentioned previously, the only realistic competitor to Crashlytics is Instabug (backed by Y Combinator in the W16 class). While Crashlytics is focused on actual crashes, Instabug's main innovation is in collecting feedback from users for non-crash bugs. While non-crash bugs are a substantial category of bugs, Instabug's pricing is quite steep. As soon as you go beyond the most basic features your monthly bill spikes to $124 - $499 per month, whereas Crashlytics is 100% free (for all usage levels and all enterprise features). Based on this, I've never tried Instabug because the ROI just wasn't there.

UXCam provided higher coverage of features than Mixpanel or Inspectlet standalone. In fact, it has the features if you combine both the products which is amazing. In a single integration I can get multiple use-cases covered.
