Ask HN: Use Sentry/AppInsights vs. middleware for early stage?

[Norcim133]

Is something like Sentry worth setting up in early days of launch or is it easier/faster to just use your own middleware and server logs?

Basically, I want whatever is faster at this stage.

I personally find "something like sentry" (but better) so easy to set up that I use it even in local development. So definitely at launch...
