Thanks! I’m not really competing with Sentry itself. I’m competing with self-hosted Sentry, which is notoriously hard to install and maintain (and has steeper hardware requirements).

I'd say my customers prefer my product because:

- They want self-hosting without the maintenance burden.

- They work in regulated or internal networks.

- They’re tired of subscription pricing.

- I build it in public and post regular updates on my social media.

- They value direct support from the creator.

P.S. I’ve personally worked for a Sentry competitor, so I know the pain points firsthand.
