We performed a comparison between Elastic Observability and Sentry based on real PeerSpot user reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Elastic Observability is the preferred choice over Sentry due to its comprehensive features such as machine learning, custom development, and predictive analytics. Users note that Elastic Observability has a steep learning curve but is cost-effective and helps reduce incidents and overheads. Sentry has limitations in automation, tracking, and analytics capabilities, as well as customization options.
