# Rollbar

Hosted error tracking with a free plan, paid plans from $7.50 a month billed yearly and SDKs for six server languages.

77 points out of 100. #4 of 12 error monitoring tools. Vendor: Rollbar, Inc.. Website: https://rollbar.com/

- The Free plan includes 5,000 occurrences and 1,000 sessions a month, with 30 days of history [1][2].
- Essentials starts at $7.50 a month billed yearly ($9 billed monthly) for 10,000 occurrences, with 90 days of history; Advanced starts at $10.83 billed yearly with 180 days [2].
- SAML single sign-on is supported on Advanced and Enterprise plans [11].
- Rollbar says it holds SOC 2 Type I and Type II certifications [4].
- In 2023 an intruder took customer project access tokens and account details; Rollbar disclosed it [16].

Verdict: Rollbar suits web teams that want low entry prices, deploy tracking and integrations with Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, Jira, GitHub and GitLab [2][8][10]. The catch: it is hosted only, publishes no EU region, lists Flutter as unsupported [3][4]. Best for: Small web teams that want cheap paid tiers and deploy tracking.
