# Firebase Crashlytics

Crash reporting for Apple, Android, Flutter and Unity apps, with no cost to use.

47 points out of 100. #10 of 12 error monitoring tools. Vendor: Google. Website: https://firebase.google.com/products/crashlytics

- Google says there is no cost to using Crashlytics, and Firebase lists it as a no-cost product [1][2].
- SDK guides cover Apple platforms, Android, Android NDK, Flutter and Unity; no web or server SDKs are listed [3].
- Alerts go by email, Slack or PagerDuty, and Jira issues can be created from the console [4][5][6].
- Docs describe dSYM uploads for Apple apps and mapping-file uploads for Android [7][8].
- Google says all Firebase services completed ISO 27001 and SOC 2 evaluation [9].

Verdict: Crashlytics suits mobile teams, since it costs nothing and handles dSYM and mapping files for readable crash reports [1][7][8]. Its docs list no web or server SDKs, and its pages state no event limit, while the privacy page gives 90 days of crash history [2][3][9]. The catch: it covers mobile apps only, and Firebase lists it as a global service without naming an EU region [9]. Best for: Mobile teams that want free crash reports and already use Firebase.
