@Sentry if you add an entry in your description that starts with "00:00" (for example 00:00 - Start) Youtube will create a nice timeline with tooltips... 🙂

I love Sentry. It has made my life as a developer a lot more organized and sane - I will never go back to not using a tool like this. That said, I have always found the interface to be overly complicated, which feels confirmed by a 55-minute video explaining how to use it. To be clear, the Issue page I think is fine (and where I spend 99% of my time). It's everything else (Settings, Documentation) that feels over-engineered to me. I know you have many types of users but personally, my goal isn't to use Sentry *more* - it's to fix the most frequent bugs and move on with my life. In fact I would prefer a lite version of the app (and documentation!) because I only use what feels like 5% of it. It's overkill when you are the sole developer (which I admit might be a rare use case). Anyone else agree?

Great webinar. I can see Sentry as a great tool for error track monitor and much more. :)

I'm only getting the minified error message. Unable to debug from there. Please can you suggest how I can handle this?

How to get alert if nodejs app crashes (e:g forever restart and related?)

Worst customer service ever, a week between email responses.
Not good enough, can't even get it working properly.
Will require a refund immediately.
