    Branch well suited: Branch links are perfecting for embedding into our email service provider (SendGrid), paid media channels (Facebook, Google, ASA), organic media (Instagram, Facebook, content marketing, referral) and push notification platform (OneSignal) to be able to evaluate actions taken from users that clicked on those branch links. No matter the data from these links, they are accurate and are easily exported to our database and CRM to determine ROI, and find weak points in our major funnels.

    Firebase Crashlytics is a no-brainer if you are already using any of the other Firebase suite of products, as its integration is very easy if you are already using these in your app. If you have cross-platform Android, iOS, and macOS apps, you should also consider Firebase Crashlytics to provide a unified across your platforms. If your app is only on Android or only on Apple, then you may be better off remaining with the default Apple Developer or Google Play Developer Console crash collection experiences.

    • Providing stack traces that are useful when users have crashes.
    • Tracking crashes per version (app and OS) so we know whether to release a version to everyone instead of a subset.
    • Provides trending crsahes/problems if there's a spike in issues so we can get on it quickly.

    Cons
    Branch Metrics, Inc.
    • Multiplayers redirection is important feature. In our marketing process for [our] Ace Tutor app https://www.acetutor.io, we have a referral reward campaign for which we want to aggregate clicks from lower level links to higher level links. For example, we created unique Branch Links for 10 marketing interns, and each intern wanted to create Branch Links for their own 10 delegates, the clicks of the Branch Links from these delegates would be automatically rolled up to the right intern's Branch Link, so we can make payment following the aggregation paths. Currently, Branch Links do not support this kind of multiplayer or multi-layer redirections.

    It's very usable. Multiple teams in the company are using it, and it never takes more than 5 mins to explain to someone how to use this.

    It is very easy for non-developer staff to use the Firebase Console and gather information for the development team. Developers will find it straightforward to integrate Firebase Crashlytics into new or existing codebases using Google's in-depth developer documentation. I cannot think of an easier cross-platform solution to use, and because of that I wish it supported more platforms!

    We have never had any issue with support response yet. In fact, they have a local POC in our city too, who routes the urgent matters to their escalation matrix.

    Branch's links are the most consistent in the mobile space. They work across desktop and mobile, where AppsFlyer and Deeplink's didn't consistently perform in both places. Branch's measurement is more consistent across all customer touch points as well, which gives our marketing and growth teams the answers they need without any struggle.

    Truly speaking, it is also a quite good tool for crash reports, but Firebase Crashlytics was better to use when you are using the Firebase Realtime database as your DB, so the integrations become much easier.
