After their free trial, customers are offered the most fitting plan for them based on their usage in the previous 30 days.

In late 2012, we were getting somewhere with this unnamed side project that was supposed to replace our overpriced New Relic subscription. If we wanted to tell the world about it, it needed a name. This is a brief history of how we came up with the name, and how we landed appsignal.com. Besides being co-founder, I was also "the name guy” at 80beans, the consultancy where AppSignal was born; you know, the person that comes up with fun names and finds out the.com has been squatted.

When relying on data from external services, it's important for the retrieval to be accurate and timely. While we may not control how efficiently an external API responds to our requests, we can control how and when we request data from that API. However, over time as your application and the API that serves it change, once efficient requests may turn into bottlenecks.
