Sentry has given us vital information that we have not been able to source from other application monitoring software. This in turn allows us to diagnose issues faster and get work on solving issues rather than working out what the problem is.
Pros
Sentry is used as one our our application monitoring solutions and we use it to stay on to of regression, bugs, and core web vitals. It not only tracks these issues but gives us the information to troubleshoot them
Cons
There can be a lot of information to digest when diagnosing an issue so it can take time to become familiar with the UI

Cons
1. Need a bit of knowledge of error reporting to work
2. Some kind of tutorial video or detailed blogs are needed to use.

4. No benefit for student or startups.

I do like the UI and the events logging integration but the crash detection is not one of the best and the SDK integration wasn't that easy.
Pros
The way it displays error loggings and how easy is to query and filter for types of events
Cons
The SDK integration wasn't easy. We had crashes and performances problem due to the Sentry SDK

Overall experience was really good with production alerts being fired anytime there was an exception or an outage on the backend server.
Pros
Sentry can be easily integrated with your platform for generating email alerts for any issues on production backend server. Be it an exception on the server or the outage, sentry will send an alert to your email and once you login to the dashboard, you can easily see the stack trace for the error which occurred on the server along with the frequency of occurring error. Sentry integration is available for different programming languages.
Cons
Setting it up with your backend server for the first time can take some time. Also we faced some issues with integrating the HTTPS sentry link with Node.js. Other than that, its a great tool in helping you keeping your production environment available 24/7.

Pros
- Very easy to integrate with python projects
- Nice UI, trace page has all the context, you may potentially need to debug
- Can post exceptions right into Slack
Cons
No cons so far.
I think I was confused by the UI navigation a few time, but I was able to figure everything out by myself eventually.

Great error tracking service, essencial for any software application running 24/7.
Reviewed on 2017/12/15
Pros
In the Sentry dashboard, we can create and save custom filters that are helpful to use, mainly after a deployment in order to find any errors in our application. The integration is easy, with API clients available in many programming languages.
Cons
API clients don't support asynchronous communication, you need to implement it by yourself. Besides, it is possible define fingerprints to track issues, but it is not possible to filter the issues by fingerprints.

Pros
Automatically it can keep track of all the errors from your system and display very useful information such as user id, user e-mail and other error details that could help you to identify the root cause of the error and help your dev team to solve it quickly. Has a great integration with Slack so you can easily are notified of each error.
Cons
Sometimes seems to not show all the errors, looks like can skip some of It, so we cannot find information about some user that is complaining about an error.

It is useful as I said, I use it daily to track errors in our product and most of the times it directs me successfully to the root of the problem.
Pros
It has a simple interface, groups errors together, keeps track of regressions. In a nutshell it is mature, robust and very helpful. Also accept some degree of customisations which is nice.
Cons
Way too expensive! Also sometimes loses some exceptions or errors.

It has been an indispensable tool for many of the projects I was involved in. I was tasked with setting up the Sentry accounts for some projects and I found it easy to do so without having to read a lot of docs.
Pros
1- You can use it on both frontend and backend to track errors.
2- It collects many metadata about each error event, which makes it easier to debug the error in question.
3- It allows uploading of source maps so you can see where the errors are happening in the code you write rather than the minified released versions.
4- It's secure and has default masking for sensitive data (but you must make sure you are not sending sensitive info in the errors)
5- It has a generous free tier
6- It's easy to set up and deploy with client libraries for almost any framework you use.
7- All events data is downloadable up to 3 months after they are created.
Cons
1- Grouping of issue events is a bit strange sometimes if you don't write your own error handlers.
2- Documentation can be outdated sometimes.

Instant issue notifications to the entire team with visual reports, issue timelines, assignees
Reviewed on 2019/04/25
Pros
Anyone on the team can subscribe to get instantly notified about the issues; multiple projects supported in the same dashboard (in my team we use separate projects for different types of environments). Automatic weekly and monthly reports are simple but informative. Gitlab integration is available. I also really like visibility into team members who have already seen the issue. Issue search filter is very detailed as well. Open source and cloud versions are available so any team's needs can be met.
Cons
Since all screens are minimalistic, they all look the same at a first glance, perhaps some color or header accents would be nice, also some sort of labelling for more customized filtering could come in handy. As a PM I think I am more picky about things like that than developers on my team though. Overall this is a good product.

Straightforward to set up and use, crystal clear documentation
Reviewed on 2018/06/05
Pros
We use Sentry for our website and app alert handling. They have excellent docs to get set up and integrated across a variety of languages, web, and app frameworks. Getting alerts piped into Slack and Pagerduty was super simple.
Cons
Small nit, but wish they made it easier to get full stacktraces from mixed environments, like React Native! Would be nice to get both native and JS traces in both iOS and Android.

We set sentry up for all the software we develop. It has helped us greatly to always know when an application crashes so that we begin working on fixes. We loved sentry because it's easy to setup and use. We set it up once and run for the software lifespan. It shows a lot of information in a non-overwhelming way
Pros
The interface is so easy to use, it's almost natural for me.
It sends notifications to my e-mail and often when I click view on sentry I don't need to re-login it just takes me where I need to go
Version Control integration which make it easier to resolve issues when making a commit
Cons
When an issues occurs multiple times I want to view breadcrumbs for multiple cases at once but this option isn't there and if an issue occurs thousands of times this is a challenge
I can seem to find resolved issues to review them for whatever reason, at least if resolved issues were accessible for some time this would be great, or if this is already there making it easy would be great

Easily handling incoming issues and keep track of which problems are prevalent.
Pros
Very easy to capture issues for users, and extremely versatile in how to act on these. The biggest strength of Sentry is that it is so well designed for the downstream handling of issues. The ability to ignore issues until they hit a certain number of users as an example.
Cons
It's a bit hard to figure out how they group events. But I think it is also hard to simplify. And then you cannot turn off email notifications for re-opening issues. But it's minor things.

Amzing exception tracking software
Reviewed on 2018/11/13
Pros
The number of integrations and the ease of setup is great. Also the amount of data provided for exceptions is very extensive. Its very easy to get to the bottom of what the issue is.
Cons
It would be handy if there were more statistics available about error rate maybe via their API. Also sometimes its hard to set up functionality like release tracking and sourcemaps etc.

I'm a very satisfied user.
Pros
Sentry SDK Integrates well with my code (written in Python, uses Django web framework).
Alert emails are timely and contain enough information for me to understand the severity of the issue without opening the Sentry dashboard.
Sentry captures enough contextual information about the exception (traceback, SQL queries, HTTP request, HTTP headers, form data, local variable values), I can usually understand what the problem is without any additional debugging.
Cons
Sentry has a ton of features, and is adding more features all the time. The features and UI elements that I don't use feel like a clutter. At the same time, I'm sure they are useful to other people.

Sentry is used within almost all of our applications, whether they're run by ourselves or our customers. It provides amazing peace-of-mind because I can rely on Sentry to report any issues & also keep logs & error reports handy for further investigation of such issues. We've never regretted using Sentry and are very likely to not consider moving to another platform anytime soon.
Pros
Sentry is the best way to monitor your websites / applications for issues. It supports virtually every programming language, runs on every system, is easily set up and maintained and is really easy to use.
Cons
Sentry in the cloud can be a little pricey for smalle projects & developers but there is a self-hosted plan of the app which can be set up on your own servers, so really even pricing-issues are pretty much non-issues for us and, I'd imagine, most potential users.

Allows me to track errors and fix bugs before they are noticed!
Reviewed on 2018/08/07
Pros
The sentry plugins mean that I can easily integrate it into my software with a few lines of code, and then forget about it! Errors are sent automatically, and I'm emailed about any errors that come in. I've used sentry on all my projects for years, and it drastically improves the process of finding and fixing bugs. The notifications give me peace of mind that things are running smoothly.
Cons
Sometimes it is hard to drill down into errors that happen many times, and the UI for managing teams and users is not always very intuitive!

Overall it is a very good tool if you want to work with very good code quality.
Pros
It is a must-have thing if you are a web developer. As it helps in tracking errors and helps in improving our code quality and performance. UI is very friendly and whenever there is any warning or error it sends you that over to your email.
Cons
Finding a negative point about this product is quite difficult. But one point I want to highlight that helps the user a very positive way is if the sentry errors can also tell about the parametric errors of function.

A must-have in our tool kit
Reviewed on 2018/03/24
Pros
Sentry has helped us track down countless, countless bugs in our platform before they could have been reported by our users. Thanks to their platform we are instantly made aware when someone has an issue on our API, dashboard, or one of our worker bots fails for an unforeseen reason.
Cons
Sometimes a bug occurs that impacts a lot of users / traffic. Especially if you use an API. This can in some cases prevent other errors in other projects from showing up. Simple fix, just don't get any errors ;)
