### "Best Software to track errors"

September 7, 2016

5.0

I've used Sentry and Bugsnag. As I can't be satisfied with them, kept finding the better one. Finally, I found Rollbar and have used it for more than 1 year.

Pros

\- Easy UX - Good customer support - Flawless product(perfect environment feature, error level, integration, etc)

Cons

The price is slightly higher than alternatives. But it's worth to pay!

### "Rollbar is a Great tool"

July 16, 2020

4.0

I'm satisfied with it, but need the params field under occurrences. Its my personal thought though.

Pros

I liked the tracking ability of it, it never misses any warning let alone errors. Its UI is user friendly, so easy to use.

Cons

Just one problem which I have faced is for params, it will be helpful a lot to have those in separate columns under occurrences. Sometimes the errors are complex and sometimes its just issue of authorisation in ROR which takes a lot of time to deduct to that.

### "One of the best error tracking app ever tried"

March 10, 2017

5.0

We are using Rollbar since 2016, and it's the greatest tool for track errors into our ruby on rails applications. It's super easy to setup and use. Great dashboard and super clean user interface. When an error happen, you have the situation under control. I saved a lot of money thanks to rollbar, super recommended!!

Pros

easy to use, setup and super clean

Cons

maybe price?

### "Rollbar Review"

July 20, 2020

4.0

Good. Haven't used many other error monitoring systems so I don't have much to compare with, but Rollbar does what I need.

Pros

The UI is quite good, the features like resolving and muting are very helpful, especially in the world of Javascript errors. Implementation was quite easy.

Cons

I utilize it mostly for monitoring Javascript errors and it's not extremely helpful. I think thats actually more related to how bad/unhelpful many JS errors are. I'm not sure this can be remedied by any error monitoring software.

### "A bit expensive, a bit unpolished UI"

July 10, 2020

4.0

We've solved some bugs with it. However, the pricing makes it so that if there's a frequent but unimportant bug, we have to fix it right away just to keep under quota.

Pros

Live updates are great, correlation with deploys is a great feature

Cons

Sometimes there's multiple deploys that could be at issue and correlating is incomplete. There's no handling of the fact that front-ends are cached often. Often we have to edit JSON in the UI as part of the interface.

Reason for choosing Rollbar

Price mostly

### "We love Rollbar at Mymee :)"

July 11, 2020

5.0

Pros

It's super easy to implement and you can start seeing errors within minutes. Super useful as a quick "point me to where the issue is" tool.

Cons

I wish I could see which DB queries are taking a long time, like some other services like Kibana or DataDog would show me.

### "Great onboarding experience, multiple production fixes in under an hour"

March 29, 2016

5.0

I've been dipping my toes in with lots of solutions lately, looking for anything that would provide me with the kind of insight I need to build great products. Honestly, the competition is stiff right now. There are so many good tools, but Rollbar is hitting all of the right notes. It took me literally 60 minutes from deciding to try it out to installing, logging a test error, injecting into our production packing, push some environment segmenting variables over, and then fixing actual errors that I had somehow failed to catch before. I emailed back and forth with the representative that reached out to me as I was getting going, and was happy with the responsiveness too. I don't want to name names, but I pretty quickly uninstalled another system's "RUM" script shortly thereafter, and then proceeded to ditch the default email alerts in favor of a beautiful Slack/Asana/Bitbucket integration setup. Rollbar is SLICK. Thank you! And my customers would thank you if they knew what you were saving them from!

### "With a little elbow grease, Rollbar is a great log aggregator!"

May 9, 2017

5.0

Log aggregation across multiple .NET applications.

Pros

\* All of the information that is logged and available to be logged \* Realtime log monitoring \* Super-fast logging \* The ability to log via JavaScript!! \* Responsive customer support

Cons

The thing I disliked the most was the time it took to implement. After installing the Nuget package, you have to manually wire it up to Rollbar. It took a few days to implement it across 3 different hosted applications (ASP.NET MVC, Web API 2, and Azure Offline Data Sync) using SOLID and DRY principles. Once it was setup, though, it works great!

### "Observability where it was impossible before"

July 18, 2019

5.0

Pros

Surfaces stack traces and user-facing errors that would otherwise be invisible to operations engineers and developers.

Cons

Sometimes the UI is slow to load when there are a lot of errors.

### "Great for Production code"

October 14, 2020

4.0

Pros

Great for finding and alerting us of errors before users do. Great for trouble shooting production only bugs.

Cons

In Typescript the \`Configuration.payload\` property is just type object but seemingly it needs to be a specific structure. I'd be nice if it was typed as an interface with these props https://docs.rollbar.com/docs/rollbarjs-configuration-reference#payload-1

### "Catch bugs as soon as they happen"

November 16, 2018

5.0

Pros

Bugs can cost a lot, and rollbar can save you a fortune should a javascript bug come up stopping your shopping cart from working for example. Very handy to spot browser compatibility issues, and little bugs which slip when rolling out new versions of your website.

Cons

Pricing could be more approachable, but worth its weight in gold if you catch a bug early.

### "Rollbar Review"

July 15, 2020

4.0

Pros

I like that you can group different environment and only see the logs related to a specific environment. I also like the new feature that shows the exact line of code that caused the failure and the person who has written that code.

Cons

Rollbar error handling causes our app to crash. I hope the newer updates have safer error handling on their side.

Reason for choosing Rollbar

It's ability to run limit in free until requiring payed upgrades.

### "Great for seeing true local variables in traces!"

July 11, 2020

4.0

Great integrations great visibility. Does 1 thing and does it really well

Pros

The fact that Rollbar captures the entire current local bars from a stack trace in Python.

Cons

There is an open issue at \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] which prevent using the great local variables feature in a Java/Spring project

### "Site monitoring made super easy"

July 15, 2020

5.0

Pros

Painless integration. Just copy paste the embed code and you are good to go. Captures every client-side error that happens and aggregate everything into user-friendly dashboard. It also emails you logs.

Cons

Minor concern: how do I know if Rollbar itself is causing an error?

July 16, 2020

4.0

Pros

We use it purely for javascript and a great way to get realtime alerting and visibility of errors

Cons

When we configured it years ago it required a lot of custom grouping to prevent the same error showing up as 5 different errors based on browser or other scenarios
