Since our first release of LogDigger Server we are aware that the biggest issue in adoption of LogDigger is the server setup and resources it needs. For the last several months we’ve been working on a hosted solution and today we’re pleased to announce our BugDigger service.
Our focus with BugDigger was to enable users to report web application issues with as little effort as possible.
So, how BugDigger is different from LogDigger? Although they are conceptually very similar, there are some important differences:
- It’s very easy to get started as we host the server for you. No troubles any more setting up and backing up database, upgrading LogDigger Server, etc. All you need is a BugDigger add-on for your browser.
- There is no need to to install logdigger.xml on tested web sites. You can click the report button at any time for any visited web site and BugDigger will collect environment details, recent site usage history and web page screenshot.
- At this time BugDigger does not track submitted POST data and does not collect server logs.
BugDigger is currently in open beta and completely FREE. Start using it today!
BugDigger browser extensions are not currently compatible with LogDigger Server. (You would have to uninstall LogDigger extension before installing BugDigger.) In the following months we’ll be extending both BugDigger and LogDigger Server to support about the same set of features using the same browser extension.
For the curious, the BugDigger service is hosted on Google’s App Engine infrastructure. We hope to benefit from Google’s dedication and expertise in cloud maintenance so we can focus on providing you with better tools and service.
