Looks neat and particularly polished for a Show HN. I especially loved the sandbox demo. However, I don't see anything that this offers that LogRocket[0] doesn't already have. How does RootCause compare?

I agree. Very polished.

We use FullStory and it’s fantastic. Would be extremely difficult to convert me.

Both LogRocket and FullStory are blocked by default by uMatrix.

Any idea why?

I believe they are both classified as analytics tools which is why they are blocked. It's annoying that uMatrix will still block a tool even if you purposefully navigate to their site (versus if the tool is used for analytics on a different company's site).

I see. Thank makes sense.

Yes, I also think it's annoying that they do this.

LogRocket is very neat looking but only does replay for Redux apps (as far as I know).

We record all events for any web app so you can replay session and fire the exact same mouse+keyboard+ajax events to reproduce the issue. Very similar tools but we wanted to make something generic targeting every web app

I believe that's how they started, but that's no longer true of LogRocket—their service does not depend on Redux, though they offer a very nice integration with it if you happen to use it.
