Sentry alternatives

Sentry alternatives

Sentry suits teams that want error tracking with usage-based overage billing. If that is not you, Better Stack suits small teams that want uptime checks, on-call alerts and error tracking from one vendor; LogRocket suits teams that mainly need frontend session replay tied to errors; PostHog suits teams that want product analytics, replay and error tracking under one usage-based bill. One more is covered below. The list is alphabetical and is not a ranking.

Why people look past Sentry

This page lists options for someone leaving Sentry, drawn from tools in the same area. We only include a tool when a page owned by the vendor backs our description of it, and we say where Sentry is the better fit.

• Usage above the included quota is billed at pay-as-you-go rates; the Team rate for the 50K to 100K error band is $0.0003625 per error, and the Business rate for the same band is $0.0011125 per error.^[1]
• Pre-purchasing (reserved) volume is about 20 percent cheaper than pay-as-you-go, and unused reserved volume expires monthly.^[2] One source only.
• The free Developer plan is limited to one user and a 5k error quota.^[1]

We read each source on 2026-11-05. Prices and limits change often, so confirm on the vendor's own page before you buy. A figure marked "one source only" was not matched by a second publisher.

What Sentry does well

Before you switch, know what you would give up:

• Team is $26 per month when billed annually and Business is $80 per month when billed annually, with default pre-paid data.^[1]
• On monthly billing, Team is $29 per month and Business is $89 per month.^[3]

Pricing as reported for Sentry:

• Developer: $0 (5k errors per month, one user) ^[1]
• Team: $26 per month billed annually; $29 per month billed monthly (50K errors, 5M spans, 50 replays, 5GB logs per month included; usage above quota billed pay-as-you-go) ^[1]
• Business: $80 per month billed annually; $89 per month billed monthly (Same base quotas as Team (50K errors, 5M spans, 50 replays); adds SAML and SCIM, advanced quota management, unlimited custom dashboards) ^[2]

The alternatives, one by one

Better Stack

Better Stack combines uptime monitoring, status pages, incident alerting, logs, traces, error tracking and session replay in one product.^[4]

Limits and things to check:

• The free plan includes 10 monitors and heartbeats and 1 status page.^[4]
• The free plan includes 100,000 exceptions per month for error tracking.^[4]
• Exceptions beyond the included amount are charged per exception at a rate that depends on region: $0.000050 in Europe, $0.000075 in the United States and $0.000175 in Singapore.^[4]
• Third-party sources disagree on the free-tier check interval (one guide says 3 minutes) and the official page was not seen to state an interval in these results.^[10] One source only.

Pricing as reported for Better Stack:

• Free: $0 ^[4]
• Responder seat: $34 per month billed monthly; $29 per month billed yearly (Unlimited phone and SMS alerts; team members with telemetry access are free) ^[4]
• Extra uptime monitors: $25 per month for 50 monitors; $21 per month on yearly billing (Add-on to the free plan allowance) ^[11]

Plan limits are longer than fit here and some sources disagree on them, so read the limits on the vendor pricing page.

Suits small teams that want uptime checks, on-call alerts and error tracking from one vendor. That is our reading of the facts above, not something a source says.

LogRocket

LogRocket records user sessions in web apps and ties them to errors and performance data.^[5]

What the sources say:

• The pricing page lists Team starting at $69 per month.^[5]

Limits and things to check:

• The pricing page lists the free plan as 1,000 sessions per month with 1 month of data retention.^[5]
• Third-party sources disagree on Professional pricing: one shows $295 per month, one $299 per month with 25,000 sessions, one $325 per month with 50,000 sessions.^[12] One source only.
• Sources disagree or give a range for the Professional price: third-party figures range from $295 to $325 per month. Official assets page lists any session volume; requires annual contract per third parties.^[12] One source only.

Pricing as reported for LogRocket:

• Free: $0 (1,000 sessions per month, 1 month data retention) ^[5]
• Team: from $69 per month (10K to 50K sessions per month capacity; the only paid plan available on a monthly commitment per a third-party breakdown) ^[5]

Suits teams that mainly need frontend session replay tied to errors. That is our reading of the facts above, not something a source says.

PostHog

PostHog is a product analytics platform that also offers session replay, error tracking and feature flags, with usage-based pricing.^[6]

What the sources say:

• The free allowance is the same whether or not a card is on file, and the free plan has no time limit.^[6]

Limits and things to check:

• The free session replay allowance is 5,000 recordings per month; a 2026 teardown says it dropped from 15K to 5K, so older 15K figures are outdated.^[6]
• PostHog's error tracking page says the product is free up to 100,000 exceptions.^[13]
• Free-plan session replay recordings are kept for 3 months.^[6]

Pricing as reported for PostHog:

• Free allowance (monthly): $0 (5,000 session replay recordings, 100,000 error tracking exceptions, 2,500 mobile recordings per month; resets monthly) ^[6]
• Usage above free: $0.005 per recording after the first 5k (Session replay overage) ^[7]

Suits teams that want product analytics, replay and error tracking under one usage-based bill. That is our reading of the facts above, not something a source says.

Rollbar

Rollbar groups and reports application errors, with plans priced by monthly error occurrence volume.^[8]

What the sources say:

• Annual prices on Rollbar's pricing page are the effective per-month price with annual billing (2 months free).^[8]
• Enterprise applies to teams over 80,000,000 events per month.^[8]

Limits and things to check:

• The free plan is 5,000 events per month with 30-day retention.^[8]
• Rollbar's agent-facing pricing page says all plans include unlimited projects and unlimited users, while a third-party source says the free plan supports one project; these conflict.^[8]
• Sources disagree or give a range for the Essentials price: third-party figures range from $7.50 to $35 per month depending on source and event tier. Price scales in steps with monthly error occurrences.^[8]
• Sources disagree or give a range for the Advanced price: third-party figures range from $10.83 to $49.40 per month depending on source and event tier. Price scales in steps with monthly error occurrences.^[8]

Pricing as reported for Rollbar:

• Free: $0 (5,000 events per month, 30-day retention, 1,000 replays per month) ^[8]

Suits teams that want error-only tracking with a small free tier. That is our reading of the facts above, not something a source says.
