We use Sentry for performance and error monitoring. It provides the data we need to dive into production issues. The integration was straightforward, and it offers flexibility to grow with our needs.
We initially began building user management in-house but quickly realized that creating a secure and seamless user experience involved more complexity than anticipated. It was clear that continuing down this path would pull valuable engineering resources away from our core product. Clerk provided a comprehensive solution, covering everything from account life cycle to payment integration. This shift allowed us to focus on our primary goals while still ensuring a great user experience.
Managing our AWS resources efficiently has been transformative. With Terraform, every aspect of our AWS environment—from domain configuration to ECS fleet management—is handled through code. This eliminates the need for manual changes in the AWS console, reducing the risk of human error. Every infrastructure change undergoes mandatory code reviews and terraform plan verification, ensuring that once a pull request is approved and merged, the changes are automatically propagated to AWS. This process democratizes infra management across our team, removing bottlenecks and enabling faster iteration cycles.
We needed a system that met our unique early-stage marketing needs, and HubSpot had a menu of functionalities we could choose from with subscription options we could tailor to our needs.
