What is Airbrake?
Airbrake Error & Performance Monitoring helps the user deploy fearlessly and fix bugs faster. Airbrake notifiers are available for all major programming languages and frameworks and installs in minutes. It helps users spend less time tracking down bugs and more time developing.
Airbrake provides error monitoring and performance insight for the entire app stack. This is so users can drill down on recurring exceptions or filter by parameters, users or environment variables. Intelligent grouping and duplicate detection are presented to ensure users don't get overwhelmed by trivial errors or a mass of emails.

An excellent ally in debugging sessions
We use Airbrake to monitor problems on our frontend application. All the problems that escape the tests or the devices not taken into consideration.
- Identify problems on devices we cannot test on
- Give an overview of the most frequent problems
- Report any information necessary for resolution
- Some installation difficulties on particular less known frameworks

Reporting Errors Is Good, Airbrake Makes It Even Better.
We use Airbrake to track multiple things: the errors that appear in the console of the end-users, to make sure that our product works as intended and to get notified about any error before the user reaches out to our Customer Care team (and get more information about the error) track the failed API calls that we have sent from our frontend. We use this to check faulty implementations or how the user is misusing our software so we can foolproof it better :D we made it kinda a habit to keep an eye on those numbers, we don't strive to get it to 0 but for stability.
- Report errors
- Versioning
- Aggregated errors are not so clear why they got grouped together
- Not clear why some filters don't work

Perfect for Error Management
It really helps to find odd issues that otherwise would be hidden. We even need it alongside other login solutions because it’s really made for Developer’s

Positive experience so far
Airbrake has been a very useful tool to troubleshoot issues or errors I experience during development and in the production environment. Airbrake has been useful to catch conditions we may not have caught during internal testing or catch unexpected use cases of our product which were not tested for during internal testing. This helps us with debugging and be able to resolve bugs in our product before escalation from our end users.
- Alerts
- Catch Edge cases
- Debugging
- Initial setup was little confusing

Monitor errors seamlessly
In our organization, we use Airbrake for monitoring the exceptions thrown by server-sided applications. These applications are written using different frameworks like Ruby on Rails, Spring Boot, and Node.js.
- Notifying us about exceptions which has been done via Slack Webhooks
- See the detailed stack trace of the exception and give aggregated data about exceptions
- Get the value of different request parameters which caused the exception which helps the team to replicate and debug the issue faster
- When the request body is large and we try to pass it in the parameters for the Airbrake the request body gets truncated.

Airbrake helps with letting us know of errors to look into, while also showing stack traces. This is extremely useful for debugging and to help make sure our software is running in tip-top shape.
- Error Notifications
- Stack Traces
- missing information to help pinpoint debugging

Airbrake helps us stay ahead of problems
When I started work in the team here we didn’t have any frontend error alerting whatsoever, and all the backend alerts were based on filtered log analysis. This was fairly hard to work with, and I was sure we were missing a lot of errors. I pushed for, and then implemented, Airbrake on frontend and then backend and the benefits were large and immediate. We found hundreds of thousands of frontend errors were occurring, and the bulk of them were simple things to fix once we were aware. We also got more timely alerts about backend problems, helping us take a more proactive approach to fixing the system.
- Frontend error alerting and analysis
- Backend error alerting
- Recording and prioritisation of errors based on frequency
- Integration with deployment pipelines to check for errors in a new release
- I would *love* (and pay more!) if Airbrake also provided an integrated log collection service that was aligned with the error reporting
- It can be awkward to distinguish between errors in our frontend application and in browser plugins being run by users
- Given how wide the aggregate view Airbrake themselves have, perhaps they could identify and suggest best-practice solutions to common errors?
- Browser errors in different user locales show up separately in different languages, even though they are really the same error

Easy to Quickly Identify and Track Down Bugs
We use Airbrake to actively monitor every end user's experience with our products. All of our services are monitored by Airbrake and it is the first place we check when something goes wrong. It has also helped detect several issues that went unreported.
- Reports errors that aren't being reported to us
- Helps to quickly identify which specific line of code is causing issues
- Prioritizes issues by identifying which server created them
- We use Airbrake in conjunction with OpsGenie, but I feel like there could be more room for integration between the two.
- I think it would also be nice if there was a GitHub integration that would comment on recently merged error-prone PRs, currently, we need to dig into the error to find the commit.
- Generally, more integrations would be nice as people often forget about Airbrake when they are stressed out about an issue.

An Essential Tool for Quality Assurance and Incident Management
We use Airbrake to monitor errors that occur in our Rails applications. We have many different applications and different environments, and Airbrake helps us catch errors at different stages of release. It also allows us to group errors and prioritize which ones to fix.
- Airbrake has configurable notifications
- Airbrake groups errors and allows sorting by most recent or most occurences
- Airbrake has integrations with tools such as Jira
- The error grouping can be confusing and seems inconsistent
- Searching for errors is tricky
- Sometimes errors don't include the relevant information in parameters, this is probably a configuration issue but it doesn't make it clear how to fix it.

Airbrake Experience
We use Airbrake in our Dev and QA teams are using it as an error monitoring tool, and it has been amazing. Great UI, easy to drill into the errors. It's great how they roll up errors of similar types intelligently. The "Occurrences" view is especially helpful to know which errors are infrequent and which deserve higher attention.
- It is easy to setup with popular frameworks like Ruby on Rails and Python.
- By linking Airbrake error alerts to HipChat notifications, we get great high-level alerts whenever an error happens.
- Configurability!
- Better pricing.
- It was really difficult to backtrace all log files to catch my apps errors.
- Error limits are not that big per plan.

Airbrake Review
Airbrake is used by several Engineering Teams to alert them of issues.
- Immediate alerting of issues.
- Slack integration.
- Relatively easy navigation.
- Different API keys for different teams within the same org prevent engineers from other teams from seeing the errors.
- Not aggregating exceptions when they differ in uuid text only.
- Independently resolve exceptions after they stop happening for a while.

Clean it up!
Airbrake help us to achieve clean code in the repo. As a big organization having multiple repos to be handled, Airbrake keep us updated about the missing error.
- Clarity
- Ability to close resolved errors
- Ability to mute unwanted errors
- Timely email trigger
- Would like to see a personal dashboard to wishlist and follow certain errors

Airbrake for Non-Developers
We use Airbrake to monitor the health of our site and alert us to errors in our testing and production environments. Our primary users are the Engineering and QA Teams, though Product and Project Managers also receive notifications for visibility into potential problem areas.
- Compilation of frequently occurring errors
- Overview of performance-related metrics (requests, response time, etc)
- Integration with GitHub and Jira
- Templates used for reporting errors are sometimes missing information when ported to Jira
- General accessibility; the dashboard view can be difficult to navigate for a non-developer

Airbrake the Bug Smasher
Whole org, it allows us to efficiently debug issues especially during content delivery. It makes pinpointing errors very easy and the custom aggregations are fantastic. We have implemented Airbrake across multiple applications, we rely often on it when writing code in order to raise issues that may be unexpected during deployment.
- Logs Errors
- Provides backtraces
- Custom Aggregations of Airbrake Messages
- User Friendly
- Search Functionality could be improved
- Environment Param should be a drop down rather than a manually typed search field

Powerful tool to control errors and crashes
Score 9 out of 10

We are using it in all our critical services for reporting errors and get instant alerts which help us to take action on them quickly.
- Integration with most of languages and frameworks as well support via existing logging configs.
- Aggregations on occurrences which helps to understand and analyse issues better.
- Web UI displays all error related parameters which I never could have figured out in manual debugging.
- Better integration with Slack. I could not found a way in which I can use different channel for each of my integrated projects.
- Better integration with Jira. Currently we can just automate the task of opening an issue but it could be better if we could provide default assignee as well.
- Support for project ID and key in java airbrake with logback 0.1.1
- Better integration with Play framework.
