The agency-specific wrinkle worth knowing up front: almost all of these bill at the **organization** level, not per project - so if you want clean per-client invoicing, you either run a separate org/account per client or allocate internally.\n\n**1. Sentry - the default answer for most agencies.**\nUnlimited projects and unlimited team members on the Team plan (~$26/mo annual, 50k errors; Business ~$80/mo), which is the key property for agencies: you can spin up a project per client site at no incremental seat cost. Best SDK coverage of anything here, and release/commit tracking ties an error back to the specific deploy - valuable when you're explaining to a client why their site broke on Tuesday. Two caveats: billing is per-org, though **Spend Allocation** lets you reserve event volume per project, which is the closest thing to per-client cost attribution. And per-project rate limits matter a lot when one noisy client app can eat the shared event quota.\n\n**2. GlitchTip - if you're cost-sensitive or want to white-label.**\nOpen source, self-hosted, and drop-in compatible with Sentry's SDKs - you point an existing Sentry DSN at your GlitchTi", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
