User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the plugin's ability to quickly identify hidden issues across various pages and functionalities. The seamless integration with Bugsnag is praised, making it easy to set up and monitor errors via the Bugsnag dashboard. Users can set different log levels and discern between environments, with additional integrations like Slack and GitHub enhancing its utility. However, users have noted that the plugin is not maintained anymore, lacks support for recent PHP releases, and that recent support requests are unaddressed. There are also complaints about encountering a 500 error on Pantheon during activation and the requirement to pay for the plugin after a 14-day free trial.

Been using it now for several years and it helped me often quickly finding (hidden) issues across a multitude of pages and functionality.

This plugin used to be one of the best tools out there, however, it seems like is not being maintained anymore. There is no support for the recent releases of PHP (8.0, 8.1). Recent support requests are not being handled anymore as well.

The plugin is easy to set up; all errors can be monitored via the Bugsnag dashboard. You can also set different log levels and differ between the environments (dev/production) of your website. Bonus: There are lots of cool integrations like Slack (Push Notifications), GitHub (New Issues) and much more!

I have installed the plugin on about 40 sites today so far, and it installed successfully on all of them and has logged errors on many of them already. The integration has been seamless. The one aspect which has not been quite seamless is that, after installing the plugin, trying to enable it from the confirmation screen often gives me a 500 error in Pantheon (our hosting provider). I then have to go to the main Plugins page and enable it there, where it works 100% of the time.
