Why is Honeybadger better than Rollbar? Here's why you should hands down choose Honeybadger.
Rollbar only focuses on exceptions. Honeybadger is different—we go beyond exceptions to give you full confidence in the health of your production systems. Honeybadger is the one integrated exception, uptime, and cron/service monitoring that will save your bacon when:
Honeybadger is the only error monitoring platform made to alert you about all of these issues, and for roughly the same price as Rollbar:

Hypothetical cost breakdown:
If you buy Rollbar, you'll pay $2/month more than Honeybadger for 300K fewer errors. You'll also have to buy Pingdom to get uptime monitoring; that's $124/month for 100 uptime checks. To monitor your cron jobs and microservices, prepare to spend another $79/mo on Cronitor or Healthchecks.io. It adds up fast:
Exceptions | Uptime | Check-Ins | Grand Total | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rollbar | $299/mo | $124/mo | $79/mo | $502/mo |
Honeybadger | $297/mo | ✓ Included | ✓ Included | $297/mo |
Total Savings with Honeybadger: | $205/mo ($2,060/year) |
Honeybadger cares about limits. 📈
When you're having a bad day, the last thing you want to worry about is whether your monitoring service is going to cut you off, miss important errors, or charge you a fortune in overages. That's why Honeybadger doesn't rate-limit by default, and we try as hard as possible to keep you from hitting hard error limits.
You can send Honeybadger bursts of traffic without missing important errors, and if you exceed your plan's allowed errors for the month, we'll continue to process errors at a reduced rate for up to 125% of your limit, to give you a little more time to respond:
If all that's not enough, there are many other benefits which you get with Honeybadger:
We built Honeybadger for pragmatic teams who need to move fast and focus on their customers. If that's you, then chances are we're the tool you've been waiting for.
