Sentry snaps up Specto: Mobile App Performance Platform – Bestgamingpro
Summary
Sentry is a cloud-based application performance monitoring (APM) platform used by organizations such as Microsoft, Atlassian, and Disney to collect and analyze software behavior data over time and troubleshoot problems. “While we began with browser and server software monitoring, we now serve a majority of mobile and desktop developers, too, which require much more specialized capabilities to be effective at the application level,” Sentry CEO Milin Desai told. Specto will aid Sentry in doubling down on mobile profiling at a time when smartphones have become the command center for virtually every aspect of our lives, from managing smart home devices to watching movies. “Sentry’s existing APM product focuses on surfacing high-level performance insights like what API request or database query is causing a slow user experience,” Desai explained. We believe [that] by combining forces, developers can have the best of both worlds; high-level insights to guide you to problem spots, and profiling data to pinpoint any slow function calls that may be the root cause.” Since its inception in 2019, Specto has amassed a strong list of clients, including Notion and Quora, which may help Sentry obtain more commercial possibilities down the road.
