Overall Satisfaction with Airbrake

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.
  • Slack integration.
  • Error occurrence counter.
  • Error status.
  • Mitigate losses more quickly.
  • Efficiency improvement for engineers.
  • Slow follow ups: not auto-resolving the alerts after they're done firing.
Airbrake was chosen prior to those systems and prior to my start at the company so I don't know the reasons for choosing it.
