Firebase Crashlytics vs. AppMetrica

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.

The main use of AppMetrica for us as a video game company is for studying data for marketing purposes through its generated reports. We want analytics on our project campaign so we can better learn users' behaviors and make adjustments based on what we received to maximize our profit. There are different types of report data, such as behavior and traffic sources, that are good information for us to know how regarding target marketing.

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.

Firstly the cost of AppMetrica is less as compared to other alternatives, and some other parameters also meters like performance, documentation for the implementation, quality of data, connectivity to the other third-party tools, and so on. AppMetrica fulfills all these requirements and fits very well in my scenario, so I started with AppMetrica.
