Considered Both Products
Airbrake
Chose Airbrake
We use them in combination but I would say it’s the exception and stick trace details and the focus on that.
Chose Airbrake
I love to use Airbrake and New Relic in conjunction. New Relic has better metrics and data that you can really dig into (especially for optimizations), but the error part has always been kinda meh. I fee like Airbrake has done an awesome job at this!
Chose Airbrake
There is too much info available in Datadog so finding errors sometimes becomes harder.
Chose Airbrake
I chose Airbrake over Sentry and Rollbar primarily because I’m most familiar with Airbrake, I’ve been using it for many years now so it’s well-established and I know what I’m getting and that it works.
Chose Airbrake
We use Airbrake alongside monitoring and alerting platforms. Airbrake is good for tracking small bugs down but it would be nice if it integrated more seamlessly with other performance monitoring platforms.
Chose Airbrake
Airbrake boasts a beautiful user interface that gives easy access to features such as intelligent error grouping and application insights, session details, and backtraces. All these allow you to squash those bugs at a much faster pace.
Chose Airbrake
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.

When compared to HeadSpin, Blue Triangle was a lot more flexible and easy to use when it came to controlling and analyzing our website's performance. Among the many tools that have made our engineering software suite better and resulted in more income for our organization are …

Our company is using this software because it collects RUM data and does deep dives into it.

Airbrake is very good at what it does, I don’t really have any criticism at all on that front. It’s less well-suited when bugfixing goes beyond the immediate error and means looking at a lot of context (particularly asynchronous context) like logs.

The assistance and information caught are astounding, however, the client care given by the Blue Triangle group is top-notch. They cause us to feel like the main client each time we talk, and they truly believe that we should succeed. The support team is continually checking your record and they continuously bring new ideas for potential improvement to our meetings.

Pros
  • 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.

  • Allows me to visually see the loading speeds of my website.
  • Allows me to inject ads based on customers browsing habits.
  • Most importantly Blue Triangle provides a high level or security regarding credit card skimming which seems to becoming more and more rampant as time progresses.

Cons
  • 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.

  • Getting your head around all of their many modules might be a bit of a challenge
  • It can occasionally display an excessive number of reports, leading to a state of confusion
  • The reports might be sluggish to load at times

Return on Investment
  • Hugely reduced frontend errors in devices we don’t often test: means more conversions and sales
  • Lets us know immediately when there is an error: shorter error durations also means higher sales
  • Ultimately once we’ve solved all the most common bugs: more time for developers to focus on other things
