Instabug is great to capture bug reports during the testing phase of your app. You can also collect user data such as device, OS, and App version to easily reproduce the issue.

Splunk
Splunk RUM was really helpful in identifying brute force attacks as we used Splunk query language and were able to identify how many failed login attempts were made from which country and blacklisted those IP's. Since Splunk entirely depends on Splunk query language, if there are no logs or you delete the logs you can't perform analysis, as there is no stream of live data and also it depends on how frequently your data can be indexed.

Cons
Instabug, Inc.
  • We have specific customizations on Jira so we tend to have to contact customer support to create these for us when we make new integrations. It would be nice for us to do this ourselves so we don't have to contact the Instabug team.
  • Not very frequent but sometimes the platform breaks and we have to contact the Instabug team to resolve the issue. It would be great if they have better testing before shipping new changes to ensure stability.

  • Room for integration with open sourced or inhouse monitoring tools.
  • Required more flexibility on setting up mobile OS performance metrics.
