Most APMs nominally support Rails. Not Scout.

The autoinstrumentation showing exactly, line-by-line where slowdown is happening is second-to-none. The N+1 detection is amazing. Showing me exactly where we're punishing our DB, both on web & async workers, makes my life (and the lives of our operations team) much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The cost makes it difficult to justify to people who believe "we have NewRelic, and one APM is good enough". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What really got my attention about Scout is the user experience compared to other APM's. The user interface is really user-friendly and intuitive so I didn't have to spend time looking at documentation other than clicking around and finding the information that I was looking for. The dashboard shows right away critical information for my work such as request latency, N+1's, memory bloat and slow queries. Also, the ability to compare and analyze performance in the timeline hit the sweet spot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I miss an easier way to filter my controllers in the dashboard dropdown. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We used Scout at Callbell to monitor all our query speed and this helped us a lot to improve the speed of our service! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Scout picks out very insightful information from your server and presents it to you in a simple and actionable format. The filters provided are just right to get your job done without overwhelming you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The entry pricing point is very good and attractive. But for high traffic applications, it could go out of your budget pretty fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Instrumentation feature takes a bit of server usage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's very intuitive, simple and complete solution, about application performance. It provides good reports about how is your performance and has a good drill-down for web requests and workers processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time window period is very limited and it's a little hard to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pagerduty integration is done using a third-party app, but they mentioned that they will change that in the near future Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Scout APM is very easy to set up for Laravel apps. The UI is straightforward and efficient. I liked that I didn't have to go through many steps to get performance insights about my apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing makes it unaffordable for small apps or starter projects which do not generate enough revenue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
