- It supports typescript!

- I can easily add logs and snapshots to a running code in production without the need to wait for a deployment to run. this is a major advantage if I need to understand what's going on in real-time.

- I don't need to replicate the production environment in my local machine. I can work directly on production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- no support in GO which is unfortunate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Reduce a lot of time and effort to debug issues in distributed production Environment.

2. Very easy-to-use, clear, and simple user interface.

3. Bring varieties of options such as trace printing and console.logs

4. Great user interface, integrated into the vscode as an extension. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Generally, to tool is excellent,

We can always improve the way of manage agents/ instances from the app/ website management dashboard and manage the tool more at the user level and not the account level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We have been using Lightrun for several years now and the tool is a tremendous time saver. it is almost as good as running IDE debugger attached to production env. The ability to print log conditionally is especailly useful.

Also, the guys over at Lightrun are very responsive for questions and comments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

the compiler that Lighgtrun uses is not as powerful as the one from the JDK so you need to learn its eccentricities. for example, it does not do autoboxing so you cannot compare Integer object to number literal like you would do in your source code. you have to explicitly convert the object to primitive value (intValue())

The guys at Lightrun have improved the user experience of the tool with every new release, and there is still way to go. there are little QoL improvements that can help in picking tags of server instances, managing multiuple log files and snapahots.

Also, I can see many places where AI would be very helpful: creating log condiitons and expressions, duplicating log msgs, "linking" log msgs at begining and exit of method, auto expiration of logs and snapshots ... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lightrun’s platform allows my developers to connect to the live app deployments and troubleshoot complex issues and outages directly from their VSCode IDE and by that we’re always quick to respond to defects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Support for additional languages and IDEs would always be nice but for the most part it covers my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
