I feel like Sentry[0] should be on the error tracking list, it's an amazing product that's fully open source so you can host it yourself if you're concerned about privacy or throw some money at the stellar team behind it to have them host it for you!

Somewhat unrelated, I have seen a lot of places list a "con" of Sentry that its only free plan (non-trial) is self-hosted. This is a pro for me! I LOVE that I can run Sentry on my own infrastructure :)

Strange, we definitely have a free tier (and have had one for years). Our current free plan includes 10k events a month.

But yes, hosting it yourself is the ultimate free tier.

Obvious disclaimer, I work at Sentry.

Awesome! I clearly read something misinformed; there is totally a free plan. Makes you guys even more great

Thanks for the advice, I didn't know about Sentry. I will definitely check it out!

Does sentry collect logs or is it just for crash reports? What is a good log collector (preferably self-hosted)?

[fictioncircle]

Sentry captures exception logs only and from within the application. You could probably use it to do any kind of event-based tracking but its quotas are pretty clearly intended for significant failure events that you would normally dump into the error log. (i.e. Fatal Errors as well as anything in a try/catch block)

An open source broad based log collecting/processing stack would be more like:

Yes, I was surprised it's not the first on that list. Amazing product and amazing people behind it!
