Error-free apps are envied by all software teams today. But building and maintaining such an app is not as easy as it looks. You need to constantly keep a check on your app to see when it faces exceptions or errors. This is why we have so many error tracking tools in the current market. Rollbar is a popular error monitoring tool used for tracking and fixing all types of bugs and errors in modern applications. However, it has shortcomings too.

Due to the growing usage of online methods for almost everything globally, technology has become a part of our daily lives. Most people around the world are using mobile apps and websites. Most of the companies are already adopting brand-new tech stacks faster. They are trying hard to implement all the features and make their system robust and powerful. But it is not easy to make an application error-free. It is impossible to track all the issues, reproduce them, and fix them before shipping code.

Modern customers demand that their applications are as seamless and error-free as possible. However, building such apps is a herculean task in itself. You need to constantly look out for incoming exceptions and warnings in your app in production. Effective error monitoring is key to resolving such issues before they are discovered by your users and cause a disruption in the quality of your services.
