PageHum vs Sentry
Sentry suits
Developers who need stack traces, releases, tracing, and session replay to debug an app.
PageHum suits
A small site’s owner who wants traffic, speed, errors, broken links, uptime, and a status page from one script, and the one problem worth fixing named each week.

Where Sentry is better
- Real debugging: stack traces, releases, suspect commits, tracing, profiling, and replay.
- A large integration ecosystem.
- Unlimited users on Team.
Where PageHum is better
- Visitors, speed, uptime from several regions, broken links, and a status page in the same small script.
- No IP addresses or identifiers sent.
- Error counts with an AI prompt, enough for a small site that doesn't need stack traces.
What PageHum doesn’t do
- No session replay or heatmaps.
- Counts only: no per-visitor paths, user profiles, or cohorts.
- One funnel per site, not many.
- No stack traces: error messages, pages, browsers, and counts.
- Homepage checks every 5 minutes, and no SMS or phone alerts yet.
- Young: launched in 2026, so a short track record and short histories.
Switching
They work side by side: Sentry for debugging an app, PageHum for the site's health and traffic.
