LogicMonitor Acquires Airbrake to Offer Better Visibility for Customers


LogicMonitor, a cloud-based infrastructure monitoring and observability platform, is acquiring Airbrake, a developer-centric application error and performance monitoring company.

The acquisition will extend LogicMonitor’s ITIM platform into developer environments and will enable customers to gain visibility into continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD) workflows to ensure that every code release delivers a flawless customer experience. 

“Our product vision has always been to equip enterprises and service providers with the industry’s most comprehensive, extensible, and intelligent performance monitoring and observability platform,” said Kevin McGibben, CEO of LogicMonitor. “LogicMonitor is committed to helping our customers and partners meet the challenges of today’s ever-changing technology landscape and gain visibility into the end-to-end technology performance that drives their organization, regardless of what tech stack their business is built on. Today’s acquisition of Airbrake marks the latest step in our journey towards unified observability.”

Airbrake was founded in 2008 and is based in the Bay Area. The company was created to solve problems of code and performance issues impacting production environments, and received a funding round in 2020 led by Elsewhere Partners.

Hundreds of engineering teams at enterprises ranging from Ring, Adobe, SoundCloud to MyFitnessPal use Airbrake today.

Airbrake’s cloud-based, agentless solution enables developers, QA, Engineering and DevOps teams to:

  • Access on-demand application error and performance monitoring, plus automatic user experience insights for fast-moving test, staging, and production environments.
  • Deliver frictionless code deployments and automated analysis and troubleshooting for microservices-based applications.
  • Gain deep code and user experience insights into a wide variety of applications with coverage for 20+ front end and back end programming languages, including Node, Go, Python and Ruby on Rails.
  • Keep code and user data secure with industry-leading protocols and protections.

The Airbrake acquisition marks the second acquisition in just over a year for LogicMonitor, who also acquired Stockholm-based log analytics company Unomaly in January 2020. The terms of the Airbrake transaction will not be disclosed.
