Airbrake Reviews & Product Details

I love how Airbrake quickly identifies and alerts about errors, saving time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Airbrake's user interface could be more intuitive, and sometimes the alert notifications can be overwhelming with minor issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Access detailed stack traces of exceptions and obtain aggregated data on exceptions

Receive notifications about exceptions through Slack Webhooks

Retrieve the values of various request parameters that triggered the exception, aiding the team in replicating and debugging the issue more efficiently Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not much to dislike about this application; it works like magic.

One thing I have observed is

The request body truncates when attempting to pass a large request body as the parameter for Airbrake. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity of airbrake and the ease of setting up has been great for us. It has filled an essential role in proactively alerting us of errors and bugs in our app Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Functionality is far more limited than something like New Relic. I'd like to see them build out additional functionality around proactively recommending things we can do, framework-specific monitoring, cloud-provider specific monitoring, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This is a next-level solution to have with you, it has made it seamless to find out the errors that are coming on production and helps you figure out quickly where is the blocker in your flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes it is difficult to figure out from where the error has occurred, but they are getting better and better at this. So I don't have much to add in dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Airbrake is just like using an automated GDB in the field. As a software developer in a small team, we can only test and verify code so much before release in the field. Airbrake helps us pinpoint the location of the erroneous code in all our various packages and release versions. After a failed event in the field, Airbrake sends our development team an email summarizing the issue and a web link to a more detailed report. The detailed report provides us with a backtrace of the failure, package, and version in question, imei, error type, and the number of times the failure occurred, helping us create bug fixes.

Some Airbrake reports of failures are missing usable information, but that could be due to error observed. The detailed reports of the same failure need to be viewed by clicking the next arrow, which makes the web page clean but it would be quicker and easier if all reports were on one page or are broken up into other provided information to help gain a better understanding of what / where in-field devices are having the issue.

We mainly use airbrake for logging all the issues on production, training, and QA servers. It is easy to use and locate where there might be bugs during a deployment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's kind of hard to navigate the filters. And the filters don't clear out easily. We can also only single select an environment to look at the logs, can't look at multiple environments at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Airbrake is a great tool for monitoring errors. It lets us quickly see where an error occurred and what the params were. Tons of great filtering, integrations, and other tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We'd had some issues with error grouping and passing parameters to the errors. Airbrake has a lot of great documentation on how to improve this experience, but it's not immediately intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The graphical representation of the issues is quite useful in understanding the severity of the errors. Different kinds of filters are really helpful to easily navigate and view the root cause of the issues. The feature to connect with different apps like Slack is quite useful too.

Though the user interface is good, it can be overwhelming for a first time user. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Real time error monitor and notifying. You will know of an error as soon as airbrake picks it up. There is a lifetime occurrence number and first seen date to help you identify where the error comes from. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is quite easy to set up bad error handling checks and it will then give you quite a lot of notifications that aren't relevant and flood out your inbox but that is due to bad configuration and not airbrake itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
