Sentry
Chose Sentry
It is cheaper and offers better support for front-end applications for enterprise large environments with more then 30 scrum teams and hundreds of micro frontend applications. The configuration options, both with the agent and from the user interface, are superior to other …
Chose Sentry
The only similar products tested were in-house products, not commercial ones.
Chose Sentry
Rollbar, Dynatrace, Splunk Application Performance Monitoring (APM), Datadog and Grafana
Chose Sentry
We used rollbar but didn't like the configuration its not easy. And also doesn't support wide features like Sentry although its a cheaper option but doesn't have the dash-boarding like Sentry and its was not easy to integrate webhooks for different purposes. Somehow many people …
Chose Sentry
Both AppD and Instana are a superset of sentry the majority of the time. Sentry is specialised in error tracking does the best in it, but the other too mentioned does a similar job along with multiple other monitoring features. Also, sampling of data is best in Instana, and is …
Chose Sentry
We actually ended up using both because New Relic is a more robust overall IT infrastructure monitoring product. However, sentry is more developer oriented on the backend and more client friendly on the front end as far as showing results and the dashboard etc. It can provide …
Chose Sentry
Sentry was cheaper and lighter weight/easier to deal with. New Relic always felt like it was slowing the site down some. I don’t think either has had any major negative impact, but Sentry always seemed better/faster. Also, Sentry doesn’t have contracts like New Relic does …
Chose Sentry
Sentry is better suited for tracking and aggregating exceptions over New Relic. New Relic does report on exceptions that occur, but Sentry is better at rolling up similar exceptions and filtering out the noise. Sentry also does a great job at identifying when an exception first …
Chose Sentry
Sentry is really a tool to be used in combination with other things, like Pingdom and PagerDuty. For those applications, Sentry is a far more full-features offering that lets you see why errors happened, not just be alerted to their occurrence. We chose it over other error …
Chose Sentry
There are quite a few players in this space, but Rollbar and Sentry seem to be the top two. I can't remember why I chose Sentry over Rollbar, but they seem pretty close in terms of features.

It's incredible for anyone who works at a saas and does customer support. It's the first job I've ever used Logrocket at and it adds such a great layer of service

[Sentry] is honestly an amazing product. It allows us to detect errors in real time complete with stack traces and any extra accompanying information the developer wants to provide in the alert. With the alerting into Slack it has allowed us to quickly triage and tag in people who need eyes on a specific issue. It would be really useful in any Saas product environment.

Cons
  • It's a shame recordings are capped to the previous month, but I believe this might be due to the plan we're on?
  • Cropping sessions could be simplified I think - particularly the cropping tool's design
Read full review
  • if we could decrease the costing via some kind of sampling of errors.
  • sometimes same error is in loop and Sentry will count all the events for pricing if there is any way this can be reduced.
  • self hosted capabilities or using own storage to reduce cost.

Its incredibly versatile, but that leads to complexity for the uninitiated, which can be intimidating. Nevertheless its a well polished product, in our case leading to only using it for a focus on frontend is still more cost effective than buying a one-to-rule-them-all tool...

  • Error tracking is a must in any modern dynamic website or app. By looking into the error notifications I'm able to fix errors before anyone even has a chance to complain about them!
  • Surprisingly, many website issues aren't showing up in Sentry, because they don't trigger exceptions. I'm interested in seeing if I can use Sentry to catch manually-triggered exceptions for "undesirable states" that my website can find itself in. Of course, that means I have to figure out how to have my client code recognize that it's in an undesirable state...
