Sentry Reviews & Product Details

I really like Sentry's documentation, it is very good and well indexed and structured, which makes it easy to change my observation strategy with agility. Additionally, I think Sentry's price is very good and competitive compared to other more expensive tools. The integration with our application framework was quite simple, as the perfect use case was documented and well updated. Sentry also integrates well with other tools we use, such as our Cloud Code and Slack, for issue resolution and receiving alerts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Yes, what I have already mentioned. I think that traces, at least in NodeJS and TypeScript, sometimes you lose the trace due to the asynchronous nature of Node, which results in orphan traces. I remember this didn't happen to me with Dynam Trace, as it was injected at the container level, while Sentry seems to rely on Open Telemetry, which has its own small inconveniences in TypeScript, which are a bit cumbersome.

Sentry is incredible at cutting through the noise. Instead of sifting through endless logs trying to find what went wrong, Sentry groups related errors together and surfaces the ones that actually matter. The real-time alerting is fast and actionable, and the stack traces with source maps make debugging so much faster. We went from spending hours tracking down production issues to resolving them in minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing can add up quickly once you start hitting higher event volumes, and the alert configuration has a bit of a learning curve to get dialed in without getting spammed. The UI can also feel slightly overwhelming at first with all the features available, but once you know your way around it becomes second nature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Sentry is trying to base itself on a standard like OpenTelemetry, which makes it easier for us to follow a standard. If we decide to change in the future, the cost would be very low, and that's an advantage. Additionally, the documentation is quite good, which makes it easy to integrate and scale.

Seer should be more agnostic. Also, the mapping for TypeScript with JavaScript doesn't work very well. On the other hand, sometimes spans are lost for certain executions. I would like greater integration with nest.js because although you support it well, I think the way of handling errors only for unhandled exceptions is not correct. The initial configuration was also a bit limited for the level of monitoring we are looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

most user friendly,UI is really user friendly and filters are helpful to get my logs exactly which i felt really helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Wrong backend logs, i don't know few days back i am trying to deploy to prod in app it is showing 502 but in sentry logs it is showing 200 from backend. I think there is a glitch over there when check the actual pod hits it shows 502 and 200 for other hit. I feel it got mixed up that made me waste sometime. Apart from that it is a great platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do like how we have a central location to go to see problems, whether it's application errors, application or database performance. It's nice to have a centralized location to go and see that sort of information. The initial setup of Sentry was actually pretty easy; we added the configuration to the applications, deployed them, and it just started working. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I forget what the feature is called, but the ability to sync it with your Bitbucket repository never did work for us, and so we've not been able to use the code insight type of functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how detailed the logs are. The in-depth data insights available make it easier for me to understand what’s happening and help me debug issues faster. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel the UI could be simplified further. The interface is powerful, but it can also feel dense or overwhelming for new users. At times, finding specific data means digging through multiple panels, which makes navigation less straightforward than it could be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is an all in one platform, it provides every tool that we need to track down issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't love the structure of the pricing. It turns into paying for usage very quickly. I have stopped pushing logs in because we produce so many logs that we burn through the usage and pay-as-you go usage very fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate Sentry's clean UI, which makes it easier to narrow down issues specific to customers. It works well for me in checking the issue and logs before customers even notice them and setting alerts proactively. I also like how Sentry helps in proactively calling out error logs, allowing us to communicate with customers in advance and avoid escalations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the errors logged are cluttered and could be improved. Specific errors like browser specific ones should be in a separate section so if needed we can check those and not show them explicitly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sentry is a great monitoring tool that allows us to keep track of unexpected errors in different projects and have them mapped to different teams based on a set of rules you can define for each repository is great!

In addiction to that, the power to setup alerts and connect them to each team slack channel makes the issues identification and fix so much easier and smoother for all engineers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback is the absence of automated processes to determine which team owns a specific issue. Although there are mapping options available, they require manual setup. Introducing an AI-based assignment feature would truly be a game changer! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Sentry for logging and tracing of backend services, and it helps in pinpointing the root cause of any failure or latency in the APIs. I like the dashboard and the intuitive UI/UX. The easy navigation, extensive filtering, and customization of metrics are some features which I like the most. Additionally, I appreciate that we switched to Sentry from Datadog due to its features and comparatively lower pricing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
