Rollbar

Full-stack error monitoring

  • Detects bugs in real-time with live error feed and provides stack trace data for each error, including request parameters, local variable values, environment, and affected users

  • Sorts error trends based on location, browser, host information, OS, or IP addresses

  • Automates customized alerts and integrates with incident management tools

  • Creates custom notifications that trigger when custom events or condition filters occur

  • Integrates with third-party trackers so users can manually create new issues, link current issues to Rollbar issues, and automate issue tracking based on custom rules

How Rollbar works

To send data to Rollbar you’ll need to use a language-specific SDK. Rollbar provides SDKs for the most common web development platforms. Rollbar.js is the official browser JavaScript client for Rollbar. That script listens for errors and other events, and sends actionable data back to your Rollbar account. You will need to manually add the script tag to your site, taking care to place it before all other script tags. Because it involves changing your site’s code base, it will likely require some development time depending on your coding familiarity.

Get more out of Rollbar with Segment

You can use Segment to collect all of your client-side data for Rollbar, without the need to install Rollbar’s client library. This is because your existing Segment implementation already collects the information that Rollbar needs. When you enable Rollbar in your Segment settings, Segment’s content delivery network is updated within 5-10 minutes. Once that happens, Segment will know to asynchronously load Rollbar.js from Rollbar onto your page whenever it is loaded. This means there is no need to make manual changes to your code. Rollbar will start automatically tracking data within your existing Segment implementation.
