“Luciq gives us a real-time safety net; we’re detecting and patching issues in under 30 minutes, often before our users or even our backend systems realize something is wrong."
Tommy McIntosh
Staff Platform Engineer
Before Luciq, we didn’t have a workflow. With a single centralized location for app data, developers could now quickly assess which situations needed their attention most urgently and strategize best solutions faster.
Maxime Harter
Engineering Manager
We have integrations with Luciq to manage our releases and automatically label them. Then we're able to go in very quickly and look at all the issues that were reported on that release version.
