Pros

Error grouping by stack trace is smart enough that similar errors aggregate instead of flooding you with thousands of separate events+178
The context captured with each error — user info, breadcrumbs, and request data — makes reproducing production bugs dramatically faster+163
Source map support means you see the original TypeScript source in the error trace instead of minified bundle line numbers+148
Performance monitoring with transaction traces shows exactly which database query or external call is causing your p99 latency spike+132
Slack and GitHub integration means the right person sees the error alert and can link it directly to a PR for context+118

Cons

The free tier is only 5,000 errors per month — a single bad deploy can consume your entire monthly quota in minutes+159
Performance monitoring events count toward your quota separately, so you're often paying for both errors and traces which doubles the cost+138
Alert noise is a real problem if you don't spend time configuring inbound filters and alert rules early — most teams get overwhelmed and start ignoring notifications+124
Session replay is a recent addition and still less polished than LogRocket — it can miss interactions and the timeline scrubbing is rough+97
