Sentry is more like an application mind trying APM platforms as opposed to also tracking analytics and things like that. It would be nice to have one solution as opposed to using two or three different solutions. I'd like to see user metric tracking, and the ability to create more dashboards for exactly what you want to monitor and see. It's already possible but you have to pay more for it. What Sentry lacks are user-tracking elements like traces.

While using Sentry I have to manually create an issue when it occurs by clicking in Jira or GitLab. This process should be automated or an option that could be defined to automatically create an issue preventing the need to do it manually.
It would be nice if the product provided a map showing the users’ geographic location.
To deal with its shortcomings, Sentry needs to continuously improve in areas like the user interface and documentation, apart from its other features.
It should be easier to integrate Sentry with other tools, and the end-to-end tracing capabilities could be improved.
The solution's debugging feature needs to be faster.
We cannot restrict particular columns on particular data. It would be helpful if that feature was improved.
