How do you organize an effective meeting when you don’t have a physical space to hold it? How do you manage workflows across different time zones, when some people are starting work as others go to bed? How do you integrate new people into the culture when you don’t have a physical HR department?
In the development world, we’re constantly being bombarded by new innovations with the potential to change our world. 5G, augmented reality, machine learning… there’s probably never been a more fertile and exciting time to be a developer.
As an entrepreneur and the CTO of a young startup, keeping a close eye on the product is at the top of my priorities. To keep improving the product, I’m always alert to new issues; and seeing those issues from different perspectives is key to resolving problems before users are affected. This is where monitoring comes in. In this blog post, I will get you into my stack and share the list of monitoring tools I’m using on a daily basis.
Last year we asked all our customers what they think we should work on and "Triggering Traces" came out on top.

Like the rest of the development world, we’ve come to rely on this cross-platform framework to build killer apps across Android, iOS and web. But that’s not why we’ve built our plug-in. No, it’s because our users were building their own versions!
Bugfender is pleased to announce that José Jeria Mena, developer of the game-changing fitness app Social Steps, has won our latest competition and is now the proud owner of an iPhone XS.
In our never-ending effort to help you track and destroy bugs, we’ve been listening to you. Based on your requests, we recently added a new feature to Bugfender: In-App Feedback. We’re pretty excited about it.
Since Black Friday first became a thing, roughly 15 years ago, practically every big name in digital retail has experienced some form of outage while trying to cope with its demands.
