### "A brilliant tool that has helped debugging and developing"

January 30, 2023

5.0

Pros

We have been using Raygun for several years and it has been brilliant.We have Raygun set up in all of our dev environments and it has been easy to setup and it's our "go-to" tool if an error occours.It has been the first thing we implement in all of our solutions for error tracking.

Cons

My only downside to Raygun is that I have noticed that when looking at a particular exception with a large amount of exceptions it can be hard to find a specific exception - would be nice if there was a graph similar to the one on crash reporting main screen that the user can use to select specific time frames to see error count rather than going back to the crash reporting main page to change the date time.

### "Easy to use. "

December 2, 2020

5.0

Collection of Performance-Data and Crashlogs.

Pros

With only two Lines of Code I get all the Crash-Information for my Xamarin Apps. It Detects Common Errors and if Performance Tracking is on, Detects Bottlenecks that affect your User's Experience. I would compare it to Jira, on how the Errors appear and get Tracked.

Cons

That it shows me, that my code is still not perfect...

Switched from

[Jira](https://www.capterra.com/p/19319/JIRA/)

I left a Company with a Testing Team and extreme Bureaucracy and in my new Company I have Access to Raygun. So I am Comparing a Testing Team with Jira and our shitty Bureaucracy to Raygun: Shitty Bureaucracy forced me to write a UI Test with JIRA XRAY for every Feature and Bug with a complete manual on wich button to press with screenshots. Then if a Tester has some time (wich they dont) they would run that test. But mostly we did the testing our self because our pointy haired manager would let the sprint fail, because of not done tests. All in all, there was to much overhead. With Raygun we instantly get notified if something new happens and can deploy a fix faster than doing the testing ourself. Also it's far more cheaper.

### "The worst RUM software"

May 19, 2022

1.0

I would not recommend using Raygun: It's time and effort wasted. Better to use New Relic, Datadog, Scout or Sentry

Pros

The website/marketing looks good but the solution is terrible.

Cons

The customer support is not helpful. The metrics are not correct. The user interface is difficult to understand. There are many misleading information. This solution is not usable.

Alternatives considered

[Datadog](https://www.capterra.com/p/135453/Datadog-Cloud-Monitoring/)[New Relic](https://www.capterra.com/p/118128/New-Relic/)

Reason for choosing Raygun

The price seemed better

### "Know your problems before your users"

December 1, 2020

5.0

Pros

Raygun helps us watch and track errors and find issues before our users do. When users do report issues often we can gather all the details we need directly from Raygun without having to go into details with the user.

Cons

Sometimes the event grouping does not work exactly as expected but that could be user error.

Switched from

[Rollbar](https://www.capterra.com/p/158230/Rollbar/)

The biggest reason is we use custom error codes in e application. Rollbar did not allow us to easily search for those errors in a timely manner.

### "Crash Reporting and User Insights"

July 12, 2024

5.0

Pros

Once, it pinpointed the exact line of code causing an issue, helping me resolve it swiftly and improve my app's performance.

Cons

I felt it was expensive compared to other tools, making it hard to justify for basic error tracking needs.

### "They charged me x10 times more this year"

February 6, 2023

3.0

Pros

It's easy to use. Their dashboard is also clean.

Cons

They recently changed their pricing. I used to pay $4.8 per month and all of a sudden I am paying $48 per month because they gave me 10 times more events, which I don't use. I had 10000 events and I only used about 1000 of them. Now, they charged me for 100000 events and the price got 10 times more expensive. They only sent me one email a few months ago, which I didn't read. No other notification and certainly no confirmation. The email said that there will be a change in their plans and my plan would include more events. They forgot to mention that the price will be x10. I lost $480 for 2023 and they don't refund me, since they claim that this action is written inside their terms. Be extra careful before buying their services. Read their terms of service really carefully, because some day, you might lose money.

### "Raygun"

December 2, 2020

4.0

Pros

Very easy to integrate with any system. Hardly miss any error as long as we pass the request to raygun. And no rate limiting is great. Although I wouldn't wanna keep hitting raygun all the time :D

Cons

It could become difficult go through each each and every instance of an issue, would be great to have a more concise reporting around a single issue a better snapshot/image/overview of an issue.

### "Great product that offers relevant insight into application crashes and errors."

May 29, 2018

5.0

Pros

Easy to use, full of features, very well documented, support multiple platforms and languages, it's extremely helpful when trying to understand the issues that clients face and be proactive in fixing them before they get reported.

Cons

Software can be a bit costly for small business. Pricing model changed, became more expensive over time. Could potentially slow down the application requests but nothing noticeable.

### "Very helpful software"

December 15, 2020

5.0

Overall i find it very helpful in tracking and debugging the errors, have played an important role in improving the quality of product.

Pros

I like how the errors are classified per app. And the level of detail provided for the error, like the users affected, history of the error etc.

Cons

Not able to send notifications to people when a particular error reoccurs.

### "Great tool for application health checks"

December 15, 2020

4.0

Pros

Its super helpful having a tool that allows me to offload the conscious effort of checking graphs, log aggregators, and similar health check mechanisms. Having a tool that alerts me when software is reporting abnormal behaviour allows me to better focus on my daily tasks. Aggregating reported errors, and providing historical data also helps with new team members being able to better understand the context around errors that may be new to them, and is great for identifying regression bugs.

Cons

There is very little that I can fault with Raygun, and in the times where I have needed additional assistance, the support staff have been prompt, friendly, and effective.

### "Extremely helpful platform in catching bugs otherwise gone unnoticed"

December 15, 2020

5.0

We were looking for an error log management software and this has given us exactly what we need.

Pros

The ability to track almost any level of issues in our codebase that would otherwise need manual log reviews after deployment is super helpful. We can easily find edgecase scenarios in our production environment that we missed in our QA process allowing us to fix problems that would otherwise go unnoticed.

Cons

None that I can think of at the current moment...

Reason for choosing Raygun

Prior experience using it at another firm.

### "My experience of Raygun"

December 1, 2020

4.0

Pros

We use Raygun in our company to provide client side error logging. We have integrated it with Slack, so that it automatically posts an error channel when an error occurs. I have used it for the last few months.I find the UI intuitive, it provides detailed error information, and I can easily see where the error has occurred.

Cons

Something that can be harder to figure out in some cases, is what exactly the user did for the bug to occur.

### "Raygun is good"

December 1, 2020

5.0

I like raygun, it does exactly what I would like it to do.

Pros

One of the use cases of Raygun for our team is to find the errors of our software that cannot be reported by our end users. And it helps us a lot in terms of finding issues and solving them.

Cons

Raygun could have more use cases, maybe some more features in the future to observe users behaviour?

### "A Okish Tool to monitor your application"

February 22, 2018

3.0

It is appropriate for a small size company having less applications.

Pros

The tool is easy to install and have support for a lot of language. The app is smooth, fast and responsive. The mail notification about something going wrong or occurrences of errors is very cool.

Cons

There are a lot of better tools in the market when compared to Raygun which provide better features and support - Stackify, SEQ, Crashalytics.
