Tools / Better Stack / Better Stack vs New Relic
The AI SRE observability stack — uptime monitoring, incident management, and status pages.
Better Stack is an observability and incident management platform. It bundles uptime monitoring, log management, eBPF-based and OpenTelemetry-native tracing, OpenTelemetry-native infrastructure monitoring, real user monitoring (session replay, web vitals, product analytics), AI-native error tracking, on-call incident management, hosted status pages, and an AI SRE for agentic root cause analysis. Incidents can be acknowledged and resolved from Slack or Microsoft Teams, and an MCP server feeds your logs, metrics, traces, and errors into existing LLM workflows. The company positions itself as a low-cost Datadog alternative and offers to cover the remainder of your Datadog contract if you migrate.
