Developer, BenuevoPreviously we were using Honeybadger, Skylight and Datadog, but now we have all those apps in one AppSignal, and that is awesome!
Matt
Founder, WrestlingIQI like the request based pricing rather than the host based pricing other tools offer. And the fact that you have an actually affordable plan.
Selim
CTO, SapiologieI'm extremely happy with AppSignal! It has solved many issues in thirty minutes of configuration and given me great peace of mind. We're a very small team tackling hard challenges so good tools like AppSignal are huge time savers.
