Integrated issue tracking has improved collaboration and streamlined my project workflows
I use the labeling feature in GitHub Issues. Regarding task prioritization, I think integration with code repositories in GitHub Issues is easy to manage. In my opinion, the ability to assign issues to specific team members is a good function, and I think it simplifies collaboration. I utilize the Insights tab in GitHub Issues, and I can provide feedback about that option. Based on my experience, GitHub Issues provides main benefits, such as saving time, saving money, and streamlining processes for me and my company.

The solution can be used to check the number of users online and how many times the application crashed
With BugSnag, we are able to get some data out of it. I am currently working for a payment app, and we have to redirect the customer to the VGS pages. When a crash occurs, we know that the crash is not on our side. We know that the crash happened on the VGS side or something is wrong with our integration with VGS. Since BugSnag is a web application and not a mobile application, a user's attempts to click on the back or forward buttons also get logged.
