The challenge

Yelp, a local-search platform connecting millions of consumers with local businesses, needed to maintain app stability and a consistent user experience across its mobile applications. The team required error monitoring that could alert on issues quickly without adding overhead to app performance.

The solution

Yelp implemented Bugsnag error monitoring to detect and triage errors across its mobile apps, using alerts to enable immediate triage and open-source error libraries to inspect underlying code. The team standardized on a high stability target to gauge application health.

BugSnag makes it easy to receive an alert whenever something goes wrong, and is extremely quick. Alerts allow triage to occur without delay, and BugSnag has no negative impact on app starts.
