The solution can be used to check the number of users online and how many times the application crashed
With BugSnag, we are able to get some data out of it. I am currently working for a payment app, and we have to redirect the customer to the VGS pages. When a crash occurs, we know that the crash is not on our side. We know that the crash happened on the VGS side or something is wrong with our integration with VGS. Since BugSnag is a web application and not a mobile application, a user's attempts to click on the back or forward buttons also get logged.

Offers Misra and Autosar compliance through static and abstract code analysis, but the reports could be cleaner
One of the issues we have is commenting. When something is not a defect in the code, for an example. Adding a comment for that line, or if the comment has two or three lines, it can be difficult. Simulating a real-time operating system and firmware can be quite difficult if you're doing multiple threading in different entry points. If you're not using the same macros for critical sections, it can also be a little bit tedious to get around. I would like to see better command-line tools that we can interface it with. We would like to see support for a continuous integration build environment. The reports in this solution could be made cleaner.
