- Pick Sentry when
- Almost any software team that ships code to users and wants to see errors as they happen, with SDKs for most languages.
Side by side
Mobile app monitoring for crashes, ANRs, bugs and performance on Android, iOS, Flutter and React Native, as an alternative to Firebase Crashlytics.
Captures exceptions and crashes from web, mobile and backend apps with stack traces and context, and adds performance tracing and session replay.
Younger and less proven than Crashlytics or Sentry.
Event-based pricing can climb on busy apps, and self-hosting the open version is a heavy stack of services.
