ErrorDock vs Exceptionless
ErrorDock combines error monitoring, performance and product analytics with per-feature health, one ranked list of priorities, feature flags and uptime monitoring, behind one project. Exceptionless approaches the problem from a different starting point; this page sets out where they differ, factually.
Overview
Exceptionless is an open source error and event collection platform with a strong .NET heritage, available as a hosted service or self-hosted.

ErrorDock pricingWhen Exceptionless is the better choice
.NET teams who want a self-hostable, open source error collector and are comfortable running it themselves.
When ErrorDock is the better choice
When you need to know not just that something broke, but whether it matters. ErrorDock is the option if you want error monitoring, performance and product usage in one platform, with one connected workflow, and you want one ranked list of what to fix, weighted first by how many real users each issue affects and whether it came back.
