"Logging and monitoring has never been easier"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

BetterStack sets a new bar for good developer experience.

I just use it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

"Best Log Monitoring and Status Monitoring Platform on Planet"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

What I love most about BetterStack is the usability of the application. The UI is really nice and it works smoothly all the time. It's a product I rely on day-to-day basis. The product I use most is BetterStack Logs and we could easily integrate log monitoring in minutes. I never have to SSH our servers to check the logs and filtering is never easy. Even if I SSH to the server and read the logs, it's so damn hard to find anything there. But with BetterStack the logs are readable in a colorful dark layout. Also we never have to worry about any missed errors or anything. As soon as we got an error logged, BetterStack alerts me by email with a nice little graph with the log frequency. I think BetterStack made our company more productive. We never had to contact customer support as things were running smoothly. But we contacted customer support for some inquiries and they got back to us really fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I wish BetterStack allows me to send log alerts by Slack / Telegram too. Sometimes we miss emails as we receive plenty of them on a daily basis. But an app notification is more reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome monitoring"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Betterstack is great for monitoring your services and get email/phone notifications, their dashboard is user friendly. Migrating from hetrix to betterstack was easy to implement our old services, we use it frequently to post downtimes, updates or even maintenances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I don't have any bad points about betterstack. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Lifesaving Tools, Very Generous Free Tier"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

I started with their free Logs tool (Logtail) and haven't looked back. Forget those other free log management options, they're just plain bad. BetterStack's Logtail is amazing, even on the free plan. Managing logs on my Laravel web apps and Ubuntu servers is a breeze now. Debugging is so much faster, it's like magic! Then they came out with Uptime, and let me tell you, it's another game-changer. I used Freshping before, but Uptime leaves it in the dust. Setting things up is ridiculously easy, no matter what you're monitoring. The best part? You won't miss an outage ever again. BetterStack throws the kitchen sink at you with alerts: emails, in-app stuff, even Slack and Discord if that's your jam. And get this, they'll call you on your phone if things go south, even without internet! No more excuses for missing something critical. Their status pages are pretty slick too. Easy to understand and all that, and you can customize them to show what matters to you. Users will know exactly what's going on during an outage. Plus, their customer support is fantastic. Basically, BetterStack makes monitoring and debugging my projects a breeze. It's user-friendly, feature-packed, and supported by a great team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

There one thing I would like to suggest. Making customizations to the status page, like colors that suit for the branding. This is just a improvement suggestion. BetterStack is absolutely perfect in my experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, clean, and Just Works™"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

It's very easy to use, the UI is intuitive and simple, very easy to integrate it into our enviroment and it's easy to get it up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

It would be nice to be able to move sections around in a status page, but this is really not a big problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great experience for small devs"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Better Stack excels in providing a user-friendly interface, making it easy for both novices and seasoned users to navigate the platform.

Implementing Better Stack may require some initial setup and configuration, but the process is generally smooth. The platform provides comprehensive documentation and support resources.

Integrating Better Stack with existing tools and systems is generally straightforward. The platform supports a variety of third-party integrations, enabling users to connect their preferred apps seamlessly. However, expanding the range of supported integrations and enhancing the depth of existing ones could further improve the platform's versatility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

I don't have many complaints about Better Stack. If I were to highlight a couple of desired features for future updates, i'd appreciate more options for customization on status pages, particularly in terms of appearance (Custom themes ecc.). Additionally, it would be beneficial to have greater flexibility in manually adjusting the system status on the public status page, although the current limitations are not a significant issue but more of a preference for improvement.

"Better Stack is the absolute best among all status monitoring"
What do you like best about Better Stack?

Better Stack was an absolute pleasure to have during Astralmod's goal of minimizing downtime. Better Stack allowed us to reduce our downtime to an absolute minimum, and the implementation was astonishingly simple and straightforward.

Thanks to Better Stack's heartbeat system, we were able to implement automated monitoring into all of our applications within minutes, and notify our team if something went south.

The Better Stack status page is also amazing, our users can view the real time status of our services and view maintenance. What's amazing is that we were able to connect our domain without needing to upgrade our plan, unlike competitors.

Overall, Better Stack is an absolute must-have for teams of any size, the implementation is incredibly straightforward and the pricing is also very pleasant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Better Stack?

We are still yet to run into major issues with Better Stack, as most features are incredibly customizable.

The only thing that might be appreciatable for teams of smaller size is simpler customization of the status page.

Although the status page looks amazing out of the box, I imagine that some use cases would appreciate simple customization, such as changing colors. Although this is possible using the custom CSS feature that Better Stack provides, this may be slightly difficult to work with for smaller teams, and a simple editor could strongly benefit them.
