The World’s Most Cutting Edge Companies Use Lightrun
“Lightrun was a real life changer for us”
Learn how Taboola slashed MTTR and saved over 260 debugging hours a month with Lightrun.
Tomer Glicksman
Software Engineering, Salesforce
“It not only saved us days, if not weeks, of painstaking debugging but also provided a more streamlined and efficient approach to tackling complex issues in our production environment. In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, having tools like Lightrun at our disposal is what keeps us at the forefront of innovation and efficiency.”
Danesh Qureshi
Principal Software Engineer, Priceline
Streamlining Production Debugging with Lightrun: A Game-Changer for Our Marketing Cloud Intelligence Team
One of the best thing I loved about Lightrun is that the setup time is very minimal and then developers have full flexibility to take snapshots of heap or logs at any line of the code. This helps us move into a new direction of development wherein devs dont bother about putting a log statement just for debugging, which would often need a redeploy if log statements were missing.
Jacob Eckel
VP, R&D, Gong
“Leveraging Lightrun, our teams unraveled complex incidents that were challenging to solve and replicate locally using conventional debugging solutions. Lightrun enables us to quickly introduce dynamic logs and snapshots surrounding the incident area and by that reducing MTTR from hours to minutes.”
Rami Stern
R&D Infrastructure Team Leader at Taboola
“Lightrun has been a game-changer for us. With Lightrun we shortened our development process significantly by skipping iterative deployment cycles when adding logs and metrics. A day’s work turned into just one hour. Lightrun provided us with new observability into our production environment that was not accessible to us beforehand. Lightrun is a key component in our developer toolset here at Taboola and one of our development best practices.”
Dave Knell
VP Software Engineering at Drata
“Drata’s main focus is to ensure we’re delivering value for our customers and addressing their most urgent needs; we embrace that approach across the entire organization. Leveraging Lightrun to significantly streamline logging has allowed us to remediate faster without shifting our focus away from critical business initiatives.”
Tom Shapira
Director of Software Engineering at WhiteSource
“Using Lightrun to debug an actual issue in production enabled us to react instantly. We were able to add the right logs and identify the root-cause in a real-time session, instead of waiting for redeployments.”
“Lightrun is a strategic tool in our SRE & incident mgmt. playbook, and increases the organization’s capacity to respond to customer-facing applicative issues quickly. Lightrun empowers our developers with safe, real-time troubleshooting capabilities and has enabled them to debug mission-critical, complex applicative issues 50-60% faster.“
What the industry is saying about us
Having a nonintrusive way to add logs and metrics while the service is running in production gives engineers faster access and insight to production issues, and helps enhance their diagnosis and root cause analysis capabilities.
Hassan Ennaciri, Senior Director, Gartner
Lightrun sets itself apart in the effort to bring observability into a routine and day to day task for developers is by bringing capabilities into their tools and day to day workflow.
Liam Rogers, Research Analyst, 451 Research
Unlike the traditional APM go to market, Lightrun focuses on real time fixes by developers. Rather than collecting all system logs, or a subset of them, Lightrun is designed to improve the logs in flight.
James Governor, Co-founder, RedMonk
Seeing this type of information [logs and metrics] from production in your IDE is the final frontier of shifting left
