Is urgentry a drop-in replacement for Sentry?

urgentry makes a narrower compatibility-first claim. Keep the SDKs, change one DSN, and test the workflows you care about before you move production traffic.

Should I start with Tiny mode or self-hosted mode?

Start with Tiny mode when you want the fastest proof on one machine. Start with self-hosted mode when the team already needs shared services.

What is the first proof I should run?

Install urgentry, point one existing Sentry SDK at the new DSN, send one event, and verify the issue, release, alert, or query path your team depends on.

Sentry alternative

Keep the SDKs. Change one DSN. Check the path you use.

urgentry is worth testing if you already use Sentry SDKs and want to know whether a smaller self-hosted path covers the issue, release, alert, and query workflow you already rely on.

First comparison

Compare the switch path first.

Start with the parts that decide the migration: what changes, what stays the same, and what proof is public.

Question	urgentry	Sentry
What changes first?	Change one DSN and keep the SDK package you already ship.	Keep the current DSN and current platform path.
What is the first proof?	Run Tiny mode on one machine, send one event, and verify the workflow you care about.	You already know the current workflow. The switch question is whether you can leave it.
What proof is public?	Compatibility boundary, benchmark method, docs, and release artifacts are public.	Product docs and pricing are public, but they do not answer whether you should switch away.

Claim scope

This page is for teams that already use Sentry SDKs and want to test the common issue, release, alert, and query path before they commit to a larger migration.

Fit check

Use this page if the common path matters more than full parity.

Test urgentry first

You already use Sentry SDKs and do not want to re-instrument.
You care about issues, releases, alerts, and the common query path.
You want a one-machine proof before you widen the rollout.
You want a smaller self-hosted path than Sentry offers.

Do more checking first

You need full Sentry parity on day one.
You are buying for enterprise governance first.
You need deep native or mobile workflows as the first requirement.
You want a broad observability platform before you prove the switch.

Sentry self-hosted feels too heavy

Read the self-hosted page if install shape, RAM floor, and operator work are the main problem.

Self-hosted alternative

Sentry cloud costs more than the workflows you use

Read the pricing page if the hosted bill feels wrong for the workflows you keep.

Next step

Start with the migration guide if you want the DSN change path in order. Then use the API and benchmark pages only if they change the decision.
