monday dev vs. Sentry

If you do web programming, code integration with your remote team, and/or software development that requires real-time monitoring of development progress, monday dev is an excellent tool for this. Like its base platform, Monday.com, monday dev is developed and attempts to integrate into a very "new era" organizational system of digital whiteboards, only now focused more on productivity and helping developers to be comfortable in remote work.

[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.

• It collects very detailed information on problems that happen to our users while using the platform
• It supplies very good tools in order to aggregate the collected data and analyze it
• It integrates with Slack, making it easier to "monitor it in real time"

• Sometimes, it's a little technical to set up. Someone who isn't particularly savvy will have a hard time setting it up.
• Sometimes there are glitches in the automations.
• The comments areas can be confusing- how they nest. Things can get lost in there.

• 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.

We are very likely to renew, because it has been really useful

This has been one of the better software implementations and acquisitions that I have been a part of in the last 20 years. The ease of setup, use, and training make this a simple and quick tool to implement in any organization. The usability is so simple that the uptime to start using it is nearly 0.

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...

Monday is better than Jobber, as it gives you a place to see where all the jobs are and what the current status is. Everyone in the company can go to and see that view. It's not dependent on the status of the employee. Excel is much more technical and requires much more work to set up.

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 product level insights that New Relic does not.

• Although the initial operational cost is usually somewhat high, it is really worth considering in an environment with more than 10 employees working together.
• In project costing (web development) it is quite acceptable and falls within the scope of the final product quote.
• I don't have exact numbers or percentages (because I'm not in charge of that section) but I can say that it falls within a good to acceptable ROI range.

• 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...
