| Hey guys, we'd like to get some feedback about our new startup - Appfail. Today we are launching our public beta (it's totally free) and we would love for you to give us some feedback. The address of our site is: http://appfail.net In a nutshell Appfail is an exception monitoring service for ASP.NET (support for more languages and frameworks is coming soon). What sets us apart from other similar tools is: 1) Our focus on analytics and context. That's a biggie for us.
2) Integration with your website. Our overlay provides failure information on each page as you browse your site -- and even replay failures in your site.
3) Instant notifications (you can be notified via email or TXT/SMS - with other forms of notification like twitter coming soon).
4) Collaboration with developers in your team to find and diagnose errors.
5) A focus on the overall user experience. This is just a high level overview of what Appfail offers and you can read more about it here: https://appfail.net/Blog If you could let us know your thoughts and feedback - we would greatly appreciate it! Cheers,
Sam & Peter |
1. It's not clear how the integration works (API call during exception handling?). That mechanism is important to me, the developer. 2. Seems like the ASP.NET limitation will make it tough to gain traction initially.
You may want to consider open-sourcing the integration hooks (API calls, stack trace parsing, etc). That would allow people like me to add support for my language/framework and send a pull request through GitHub. Just a thought..
Best of luck!
