Firebase Crashlytics vs. Fullstory

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.

It was extremely useful in identifying places in our product where things weren't functioning, or where it looked like action was available to the end user but in reality, it was not and therefore caused lots of confusion. It doesn't help as much in other scenarios to see what catches a user's Eye or where they go if they leave our application as well as an actual in-person interview would help with eye-tracking software.

• It has a great reporting interface to monitor crashes and affected users.
• Setting up breadcrumbs to provide better insights around crashes is simple.
• Easy for a non-developer like myself to jump in and figure out things quickly.

• Tracks users' online experiences from start to finish.
• Makes it easy to share a customer's experiences with the rest of my team.
• Allows me to use different methods to find evidence of a customer's experience.
• Shows page insights via segmentation that help me know where to improve my site.
• Tracks error clicks and dead clicks for quick insights into site improvements.
• Integrates with HelpScout for easy access to customer problem-solving.

• Improve the SDK installation documentation
• Simplify the migration from Fabric.io to Firebase
• Improve the UI, currently it feels fairly old & clunky

• Can be a little confusing to know the exact time something happened, in local time or customer time? That's helpful for engineering to look into log files.
• When looking for a specific session, it would be nice if you have a easier list of sessions with a little more info to choose from
• It would be nice to be able to save flagged sessions and annotations under my profile to reference later

Because its fulfilling our basic and necessary requirements that can be an only and enough reason to renew the subscription.

The metrics are hard to understand at times and inaccurate to the point of being unusable. I stopped pulling them and solely rely on Adobe Analytics for them. So far, I've only used FS to watch sessions and determine behaviors

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!

Because everything seems to be easy to find and it doesn't take long at all to learn how to use the product

We've never had issues with availability

It seems the performance is really good and always loads quickly

Yes, that is correct. FullStory has a dedicated support team that is available to assist with any issues or questions. The team is known for being responsive, knowledgeable, and helpful, and they are committed to ensuring that users get the most out of the FullStory platform. They helped us a lot to implement it with our web app

I was not involved in the initial implementation, but I have found it easy to pick up and use without any guidance, so it's very user-friendly, intuitive, and not difficult to get a sense of use, though it may be more difficult to master (I am not a Fullstory master... yet!).

Compared it with Crittercism on a Xamarin project a while back and on that platform, Crittercism was the best. But on Android, Crashlytics is just a lot better in providing good stack traces and having a useful analytics console. It's pretty much the defacto standard on Android...everyone uses Crashlytics. It's even more common to use Crashlytics and the Firebase crash tracking; Firebase does track ANR's a lot better though.

Fullstory is really the best at session recording. They are adding new and more features to become more competitive with other web analytics tools (like Pendo, Heap, and GA). But we ultimately keep them because they make it so easy to actually see how people interact with your site. It is one thing to see a report that says customers fall off a page, it is another thing to actually be able to watch what they do as they fall off.

Full story was easy to scale with the growth of our teams and organisation

• It has help me in improving my app stability and has helped a lot in improving the UI.
• Also, sometimes its quite interesting to understand the app usage, and it helps us in making better decisions.

Incentivized

• We reduced our payment error rate by 20% using FullStory.
• Our product design team is able to get initial designs approved 95% of the time using FullStory data in order to explain to our stakeholders the reasoning behind decisions. We also do a before-and-after analysis, and we either net out the same with the new designs (just improved visuals) or improve the metric of whatever was designed. More often than not, we improve the metric.
• We decreased the time to A/B testing insights by 50%.
• We can usually visualize a production issue via FullStory within 10 minutes.
