SmartBear Extends Developer-first Observability Solution with Real User Monitoring to Enhance Application Visibility

SOMERVILLE, Mass. — July 18, 2023 — SmartBear, a leading provider of software development and visibility tools, released real user monitoring (RUM) in BugSnag, the company’s observability and application stability solution, that delivers production visibility insights to developers as they monitor and improve their applications with digital experience monitoring. These new capabilities enable application teams to rapidly identify and prioritize performance issues in production with the context required for faster resolution and quicker application development.

“Performance issues in mobile and web applications can seriously impact end user satisfaction and ultimately the successful adoption of your product,” said Anthony Bryce, Vice President of Product Management at SmartBear. “To be successful, development teams must continually observe and optimize the performance of their applications. As developers take on more responsibilities to understand the impact of poor user experiences, we are leveraging our strength in error monitoring to provide modern development teams with 24/7 performance monitoring of their applications with real-world data to identify, prioritize, and resolve performance issues with confidence.”

Gaining cost-effective and scalable insights into application performance for organizations of all sizes is a consistent challenge in the developer observability space. The data required can be difficult to determine and costly to store. To avoid high and often surprising costs, BugSnag with RUM dynamically samples performance data on a daily basis so development teams can control their operational costs and never unintentionally go over the data volume in which they choose to pay. The way BugSnag collects data is also OpenTelemetry compliant, enabling customers to utilize the collected data with other OTel-based observability solutions.

“BugSnag with RUM gives valuable insight into the real-world performance of Concepts, an award-winning app used by millions of creative people worldwide as a flexible space for thinking, planning, and drawing, across the many devices and platforms we support,” said David Brittain, CEO at TopHatch. “Ensuring that our app is fluid and responsive is important to our customers, and this is a powerful tool to help deliver on that promise.”

BugSnag with real user monitoring provides an intuitive UI with dashboard overviews of key metrics such as app start up times, page loads, and web vitals. It also provides timeline views to identify performance trends, span filters by stage, release, and more, as well as waterfall views of performance traces to zero in on specific performance issues. Its rapid identification and resolution of performance issues means higher performing apps, increased customer engagement, and customer loyalty.

“Given several factors, including demand for improved user experience and increasing complexity of software systems, the observability market continues to evolve,” said Stephen Elliot, Group Vice President, I&O, Cloud Operations, and DevOps at IDC. “As developers and platform engineering teams take on more responsibility for service reliability, those teams need developer observability tools that give them the visibility they need to improve customer experience in a way that supports modern software development practices.”

Difference between Web Designer and Web Developer Neeraj Mishra The Crazy Programmer

Have you ever wondered about the distinctions between web developers’ and web designers’ duties and obligations? You’re not alone! Many people have trouble distinguishing between these two. Although they collaborate to publish new websites on the internet, web developers and web designers play very different roles. To put these job possibilities into perspective, consider the construction of a house. To create a vision for the house, including the visual components, the space planning and layout, the materials, and the overall appearance and sense of the space, you need an architect. That said, to translate an idea into a building, you need construction professionals to take those architectural drawings and put them into practice. Image Source In a similar vein, web development and design work together to create websites. Let’s examine the major responsibilities and distinctions between web developers and web designers. Let’s get going, shall we? What Does a Web Designer Do?

2022: The year of hybrid work

Remote work was once considered a luxury to many, but in 2020, it became a necessity for a large portion of the workforce, as the scary and unknown COVID-19 virus sickened and even took the lives of so many people around the world.  Some workers were able to thrive in a remote setting, while others felt isolated and struggled to keep up a balance between their work and home lives. Last year saw the availability of life-saving vaccines, so companies were able to start having the conversation about what to do next. Should they keep everyone remote? Should they go back to working in the office full time? Or should they do something in between? Enter hybrid work, which offers a mix of the two. A Fall 2021 study conducted by Google revealed that over 75% of survey respondents expect hybrid work to become a standard practice within their organization within the next three years.  Thus, two years after the world abruptly shifted to widespread adoption of remote work, we are declaring 20
