The best error tracking tools in 2026 compared — Sentry, Rollbar, Bugsnag, Datadog, and Honeybadger — by use case, pricing, and uptime fit.
Error tracking (Sentry, Rollbar) catches code exceptions; uptime monitoring catches outages that produce no errors. Why running only one is a blind spot.
What 400, 401, 403, 404 and 429 really mean, what causes each, which 4xx spikes should page you at 3am, and how to monitor them before Google notices.
Track 5xx server error rates in production. Set alerts on 500, 502, 503 patterns and distinguish app bugs from infrastructure failures.
3 monitors, 10-minute checks, instant email and Slack alerts — no credit card required.
