Overall Satisfaction with Sentry

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Sentry is used mostly for logs, code debugging, and error handling. It takes a central place in the entire error handling process, including analytics and related insights.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Error logs
Error trend count
Integration with outside tools

Cons

Extra detailed error logs view
UI simplicity
Understanding connected/related errors better

Return on Investment

Organized R&D work
Clear error handling and view
Clarified workload for tech issues vs. projects

Sentry is easy to operate and use, with a clear way to find issues and errors, both immediate/live and ongoing ones. It could be a bit better in some matters such as a more detailed approach rather than providing multiple use cases and features that it provides.

Alternatives Considered

The only similar products tested were in-house products, not commercial ones.
