Chose PaperTrail
We initially selected PaperTrail because they have the best free plan - and now we are happy paid users across many apps. A usable free plan is key for anybody who launches several instances of apps (development, staging, production), micro-services, etc.

Keeps documents highly organized and easy to find. It makes it easy for individuals to sign on the go. Workflow/Document templates save a lot of time. It is honestly tough to think of anything to mention here. I am a happy MSB user and satisfied with the services.

PaperTrail is extremely easy to use. Engineers can open the web console and begin tailing or searching logs. Simple searches are very intuitive; you may need to consult their documentation to write more complex queries. It is also very easy to configure alerts for specific log events. Configuring log collection with PaperTrail is simple.

Amazon CloudWatch logging is integrated with most Amazon products out-of-the-box. Both offer web consoles for searching logs, and both are fully-managed and can be configured easily. We chose PaperTrail because some of our services run on Heroku. We would have chosen PaperTrail even if this weren't the case because its search capabilities are better.

  • PaperTrail saves developers ($$$) a lot of time trying to track down where errors occured; rather than needing to SSH into machines and view error logs, all error logs for certain applications are available in one view
