Why BugSense?
BugSense was born out of a strategic choice
Google App Engine as a collaborator in the development effort
Vlachoyiannis not only embraced Google, but integrated some of Google App Engine’s fine features to strengthen his own product. Including Datastore for scalable storage of data; XMPP API to enable real-time reporting of app errors on the user’s BugSense dashboard; and Task Queue API to notify developers about lapsed bug fixes. Jon Vlachoyiannis quipped, Our customers love that we have a very predictable service. They love that we’ve never had downtime. Google App Engine has helped us accomplish this.
Thanks to Google’s umbrella support, BugSense has steadily grown since its inception. It now claims thousands of customers ranging from individual app developers to organizations. Google App Engine has enabled this service to effortlessly add to its customer base, and earn a reputation for reliability.
