Bugsly vs ELMAH — Modern .NET Tracking
ELMAH (Error Logging Modules and Handlers) is a .NET-specific error logging library. While it's a solid tool for basic error logging in ASP.NET applications, it's limited to the .NET ecosystem with no SaaS offering, no AI analysis, and no modern error tracking features. Bugsly provides a modern, cross-platform error tracking solution with AI-powered analysis.

Is ELMAH still maintained?
ELMAH has received minimal updates in recent years. Bugsly is actively developed with regular releases, AI-powered features, and modern integrations that keep up with the evolving .NET ecosystem and beyond.
Does Bugsly work with ASP.NET Core?
Yes. Bugsly supports both classic ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core through the Sentry .NET SDK, with full support for modern .NET features, dependency injection, and middleware integration.
