Errbit vs Raygun: What are the differences?

Developers describe Errbit as "The open source error catcher that's Airbrake API compliant". Errbit is a tool for collecting and managing errors from other applications. It is Airbrake (formerly known as Hoptoad) API compliant, so if you are already using Airbrake, you can just point the airbrake gem to your Errbit server. On the other hand, Raygun is detailed as "Use Raygun to track, manage, and report your software errors". Raygun gives you a window into how users are really experiencing your software applications. Detect, diagnose and resolve issues that are affecting end users with greater speed and accuracy.

Errbit and Raygun belong to "Exception Monitoring" category of the tech stack.

Some of the features offered by Errbit are:

• Your exceptions may contain sensitive data that you don't want sitting on someone else's server
• Your application is behind a firewall
• You'd like to brand your error catcher

On the other hand, Raygun provides the following key features:

• Error, crash and performance monitoring, in one platform
• Support for every major programming language and platform
• Minutes to set up

"Airbrake compliant" is the primary reason why developers consider Errbit over the competitors, whereas "Easy setup and brilliant features" was stated as the key factor in picking Raygun.
