The same month elsewhere
These four tools price error tracking alone, and each is the better buy for something. Their prices were read from their own pages on 5 October 2026.
| Sentry | Tracing, session replay, profiling, cron and uptime monitors, or mobile SDKs |
|---|---|
| Better Stack | Logs, uptime and incident management in one product |
| Bugsink | To self-host, which is free, or hosted error tracking from €16 a month |
| GlitchTip | An open-source host that takes Sentry SDKs, from $15 a month |
| Vinktar | Product analytics on the same users, at a flat price |
None of the four costs less than Vinktar this month.
| Tool | Errors it counts | Plan | The month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vinktar | 20,000 | Free | $0 |
| Sentry | 20,000 | Team | $26 |
| Better Stack | 20,000 | 100k included | $0 plus their plan fee |
| Bugsink | 20,000 | 75K | €16 |
| GlitchTip | 20,000 | Small | $15 |
- Their pricing pages list no hourly cap per issue, so the loop counts in full there: 20,000 + 0 = 20,000.
- Sentry: Team is $26 with 50,000 errors included = $26. Past the included volume and the pay-as-you-go budget, their page says data is dropped and not charged.
- Better Stack: 100,000 exceptions a month included with 90 days of retention, then $0.00005 each at the EU rate. The figure leaves out the fee of the plan the allowance comes with.
- Bugsink: hosted plans at 15K events free (5K retained, one user), 75K for €16, 600K for €50 and 3M for €158 a month. The figure is the smallest plan that covers the month.
- GlitchTip: free to 1,000 events, then Small is $15 for 100k, Medium $50 for 500k and Large $250 for 3M. Past a plan's quota their page says ingest is throttled to 10% and blocked at twice the quota.
