What makes us different?

Highlight.io is open source and transparent
Highlight.io is built with transparency at its core, with a permissive license. Not only do we work in the open, but we also expose what we're working on, on our roadmap. The fact that Highlight.io is open source also makes it easy to integrate and build your own tools on-top of it, an advantage closed-source products like Sentry can't offer.
Highlight.io constantly ships new features
At Highlight.io, we ship quickly. We update our changelog with a recap of new features biweekly, and we share when these features are completed in our public roadmap. Plus, our community keeps pushing us to do more, so we're constantly adding new integrations. We work hard to keep Highlight.io ahead of the curve, and we're not afraid to show off our secret sauce.
Full-stack Observability
While Sentry provides a comprehensive set of separate features for error monitoring and session replay, it does not support logging. Highlight.io enables teams to monitor and optimize their entire tech stack, pairing server-side infrastructure with your frontend web applications. This makes Highlight.io a more comprehensive solution for developers who need to monitor their entire tech stack, in a simple, easy to implement solution.
