About Sentry
Sentry is an application monitoring service that collects errors, slow requests and performance data from software. It shows developers what broke, where it happened and which release is involved.
What it does
Teams add an SDK to their application, and Sentry groups errors and sends alerts when new problems appear. Traces, logs and replays connect each error to the request or user action behind it. Integrations with source control and chat tools help teams move from a problem to a fix.
Key features
- Error tracking with stack traces and context
- Performance tracing for slow requests and queries
- Session replays for front-end failures
- Links from errors to releases and commits
- Connects to GitHub, Slack, Jira and Linear
- Seer AI debugger suggests fixes from error context
Who it's for
Web and mobile developers, site reliability engineers and engineering teams that run production software. It fits teams that want to find errors before users report them.
Pricing and good to know
Sentry runs as a hosted service, and plans are usually based on usage. Check the current tiers to see which features and event volumes each one includes. Setup needs an SDK in the application, which is quick for common frameworks. Be careful with personal data in error reports, and configure data scrubbing where needed.
