## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-20 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, in order. 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.
> 
> **1. Sentry - the default answer for most agencies.**
> Unlimited 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.
> 
> **2. GlitchTip - if you're cost-sensitive or want to white-label.**
> Open source, self-hosted, and drop-in compatible with Sentry's SDKs - you point an existing Sentry DSN at your GlitchTi
