Know before your users do. Get alerted the moment something breaks.
Tools that power the Monitor app uptime and errors stack
- 1Sentry
Create a Sentry project for your platform (React, Node, etc). Install the SDK with npm install @sentry/react and initialize it with your DSN in your app entry point. Sentry will automatically capture unhandled errors, rejections, and console errors with full stack traces.
Open Sentry - 2BetterStack
Add your production URL as a monitor in BetterStack Uptime. Configure checks to run every 1-3 minutes from multiple regions. Set up a status page that your users can check during incidents. BetterStack will alert you immediately if your site goes down.
Open BetterStack - 3PagerDuty
Create a PagerDuty service and connect it to Sentry via the integration. Set up escalation policies so critical errors page your on-call engineer immediately while warnings create tickets for the next business day. Add the BetterStack integration so downtime alerts also route through PagerDuty.
