For me, it is a very easy way to automatically collect diagnostics. Working well with web and mobile which really suit me so much. I can see all situation about errors by first reason. Also, I have a chance to track release health.

Rather than charge for overages they will automatically jack up your monthly price without asking. Went from $70 to $280 for our monthly bill.

The possibility to see what the user was doing and the screen on which he reported the bug. The support of React-Native.
