Sentry

Sentry is built around capturing exceptions and performance data from production software, then turning noise into actionable issues: stack traces, breadcrumbs, release health, ownership rules, and integrations with GitHub, Slack, Jira, and more. Over time it added APM-style tracing, structured logs, session replay, profiling, cron monitors, and AI-assisted triage (Seer), but most teams still arrive first for error monitoring and stay for the depth of SDKs and developer workflow.

Plans bundle errors, spans, logs, replay, and related product lines with pay-as-you-go beyond included quotas; sampling and ingestion controls are essential FinOps. Sentry's public pricing now shows Developer at $0, Team at $26 per month billed annually, and Business at $80 per month billed annually, with Enterprise through sales and separate usage pricing beyond the bundled defaults.

Sentry fits when engineers need fast regression detection and release attribution across web, mobile, and backend. It does not replace full infrastructure metrics or log platforms, so pair Datadog, Grafana, or cloud-native observability when you need fleet-wide dashboards. Compare Bugsnag or Raygun in the same error-tracking lane; compare OpenTelemetry backends when you want vendor-neutral pipelines first.
