FAQ

What monitoring should a startup set up first?

Start with error tracking (Sentry) and uptime monitoring. Add APM and infrastructure monitoring as you scale.

Are free monitoring tiers enough for early-stage?

Absolutely. Sentry's free tier handles 5K errors/month, which is plenty for pre-launch and early traction.
