About Honeybadger
Honeybadger combines error tracking, logging and light application monitoring in one dashboard. It is built for developers who run web apps in production.
What it does
Honeybadger groups repeated errors, adds context to each event and sends alerts when something breaks. Its logging tools let you search structured logs next to your errors. A simplified APM view covers request and job performance. Uptime and cron checks are included as well, so you can see when a site or scheduled job stops working.
Key features
- Error tracking with smart grouping of repeats
- Instant alerts with error context
- Structured logs you can search and query
- Simple APM dashboards for apps and background jobs
- Uptime and cron checks in the same tool
Who it's for
Small and mid-sized development teams that run Rails, Elixir, PHP or Python apps. Teams that want a lighter setup than a full observability suite will find it a good fit.
Pricing and good to know
Honeybadger offers a free trial, and paid plans are listed on its pricing page. It is a hosted service. You add a client library to your app and review errors and logs in the web dashboard.
