Major difference
Get Laravel backend performance and exception tracking together.
Laritor directly monitors the requests, jobs, queries, and other work inside your Laravel application. Your team gets backend performance and execution issues alongside exception investigation, with a clear Laravel setup.
-
Laravel backend performance you can use directly
Laritor provides request, query, queue, command, and schedule performance views. Raygun supports Laravel crash reporting, but PHP is not listed in the reviewed APM runtime guide, so confirm support before choosing it for Laravel backend APM.
-
Find slow and failing work without an exception
Laritor detects execution issues and retains their recorded context. Raygun’s PHP crash reporting workflow centers on exceptions, while its browser monitoring measures a different part of the application.
-
Understand backend user behavior
Laritor connects recorded Laravel requests across sessions and supports custom business events and Pennant insights. Raygun’s browser journeys do not replace this Laravel backend session investigation.
Why choose Laritor over Raygun?

Compare your usage Exceptions, issues, and performance. $20/month.
20M billable events, unlimited apps and users, and 30-day retention. Choose exceptions, detected issues, or all activity without a separate error or log quota.
Raygun Crash Reporting Basic starts at $60/month for 100K errors, or $40/month equivalent on annual billing. Laritor starts at $20/month for 20M billable events across exceptions, issues, and Laravel performance. One error occurrence and its related Laritor events are different billing units. Raygun RUM and supported-runtime APM are separate subscriptions.

Monthly USD before tax. Raygun’s estimate covers Crash Reporting only. Additional reserved capacity, browser RUM, supported-runtime APM, AI-provider charges, and add-ons are excluded.
Paid Crash Reporting rates checked October 10, 2026. Monthly Basic/Team/Business: $60/$120/$600 for 100K/200K/1M errors. Annual monthly equivalents: $40/$80/$400, with the annual base commitment shown separately. Errors above the monthly quota cost $0.001 each. Raygun also sells additional reserved capacity in 50K increments, which can change the total; this scenario excludes those purchases and is not a lowest-price quote. No free plan, trial, bonus allowance, negotiated discount, tax, or Enterprise contract is modeled. Laritor includes 20M events for $20 plus $0.20 per started 100K; strictly above $500/month it shows “Ask for a quote.” Exactly $500 stays numeric. More than one error can occur in a request or job; measure your actual related-event average and avoid double-counting an execution’s shared context.

Questions before switching
Raygun alternative FAQs.
Is Laritor a good Raygun alternative for Laravel?
Laritor suits teams that want exception tracking, issue detection, and Laravel performance monitoring together. It gives you dedicated request, job, query, cache, session, and feature-flag views, recording modes, 85+ dashboard widgets, and PDF reports. Raygun is worth considering for multi-platform crash reporting, browser RUM, deployment impact, or APM on its listed non-PHP runtimes.
Does Raygun support Laravel?
Yes. Raygun publishes an official Laravel Crash Reporting guide using the mindscape/raygun4php Composer package. Its current main setup covers Laravel 8 and above, with legacy instructions separately. Laravel native in this comparison means primarily built for Laravel. Laritor has that focus; Raygun serves multiple languages and platforms.
Does Raygun offer Laravel APM or PHP performance monitoring?
The reviewed Raygun APM compatibility guide lists Node.js, Ruby, .NET, and .NET Core. It does not list PHP or Laravel. Raygun still supports Laravel exception reporting, and its browser RUM can monitor a Laravel website’s frontend. Those are different from automatically recording backend Laravel request lifecycle, SQL, queue, and cache performance. Confirm any newer PHP APM support with Raygun.
What context does Laritor capture around an exception?
A retained Laravel request, job, or command includes its configured related events, such as queries, logs, outgoing API calls, cache activity, mail, and custom events. Open the source file, line, and stack trace, then follow that execution journey. Raygun provides stack traces, request context, breadcrumbs, and custom error data; it is not limited to an error message.
Can I track only exceptions or detected issues?
Yes. Laritor exceptions-only keeps executions with exceptions and their related configured events. Issues-only also retains detected slow or failed work. Full observability records all configured activity. Raygun also offers PHP filtering and custom error reporting. Equivalent ready-made whole-execution Laravel exception/issue recording presets are not listed. Metrics reflect the activity retained by your configuration.
Can I investigate failed jobs and slow queues?
Laritor has dedicated job investigations, execution timing, queue wait-time and throughput views, configured payloads, and related events. Raygun can report PHP exceptions raised in jobs, but equivalent automatic Laravel queue-performance resources are not listed in its Laravel Crash Reporting guide.
How does the Raygun pricing calculator work?
Enter one monthly exception-occurrence count and the average related Laritor billable events per occurrence. Select a Raygun Crash Reporting tier and monthly or annual billing. The calculator applies that tier’s included errors, base subscription, and $0.001 per extra error. Raygun error metadata does not add error occurrences; Laritor counts retained related events and their size. The estimate excludes additional reserved-capacity purchases.
Which paid Raygun plans are included?
The calculator uses current Crash Reporting Basic, Team, and Business subscriptions, with 100K, 200K, and 1M included monthly errors. Basic starts at $60 on monthly billing or $40 per month equivalent with an annual commitment. It starts with a paid plan even at zero errors. Select the tier needed for your features; Team or higher enables custom dashboards and reports. Enterprise is a custom quote.
How does annual Raygun billing affect the estimate?
The annual option uses the published annual subscription’s monthly equivalent and shows the annual base commitment separately. On-demand errors above the monthly allocation remain payable monthly, even on an annual plan. Annualizing a base subscription does not make the monthly error quota an annual pooled allowance. Laritor’s estimate remains monthly.
Can reserving extra Raygun errors change the price?
Yes. Raygun documents optional pre-purchases of additional reserved events in 50K increments. Its public reserved-volume estimator uses 100K slider increments. This calculator instead shows your selected published plan plus on-demand errors and excludes extra reserved purchases, negotiated terms, and add-ons. A reserved-capacity quote can change the total, so this is not a claim of the lowest possible Raygun price.
What happens if Laritor costs more than $500?
Laritor shows Ask for a quote strictly above $500 per month. Exactly $500 stays numeric. The modeled plan includes 20M billable events for $20 and adds $0.20 per started 100K above that allowance. Raygun’s selected public tier plus on-demand errors is estimated separately.
Do Raygun and Laritor both offer AI and MCP?
Yes. Laritor provides in-app recommendations and hosted read-only exception MCP with recorded Laravel execution context. Raygun provides AI Error Resolution with your OpenAI or Azure OpenAI key and a hosted OAuth/PAT MCP server. Raygun MCP includes investigation and management actions, such as editing error statuses and deployment records. AI-provider charges are separate; review the permissions and context of your chosen assistant.
Does Raygun support custom dashboards and scheduled reports?
Yes. Raygun Team or higher supports customizable screen boards, synchronized time boards, and downloadable, emailed, scheduled Crash Reporting reports. Laritor includes unlimited dashboards with 85+ Laravel widgets and customizable daily or weekly performance PDFs. The distinction is the Laravel widget library, performance-report scope, and included tier, rather than exclusive customization.
How do Laritor sessions differ from Raygun RUM?
Laritor follows retained backend Laravel requests, configured session state, users, and custom events. Raygun RUM follows browser sessions, visited pages, frontend performance, and affected customers. Raygun RUM also measures Web Vitals. Laritor’s backend journeys complement a browser monitoring tool; they are not DOM replay or browser Web Vitals.
Do both tools include unlimited applications and members?
Yes. Laritor’s paid event subscription includes unlimited apps and users. Raygun’s standard paid product plans also list unlimited apps and members. This is a shared capability. Raygun product subscriptions and feature tiers still differ from Laritor’s combined Laravel event allowance.
How can I protect sensitive information?
Configure Laritor redaction, exclusions, and optional payload collection before sending data. Raygun PHP supports sensitive-field filters and transforms for form data, custom data, headers, and environment values. Its PHP guide says those filters do not cover URL/query parameters or custom message strings, so review those separately. AI integrations also send selected diagnostic context to your chosen provider.
Does Raygun protect against error spikes?
Yes. Applicable usage-based Crash Reporting plans automatically rate-limit unusually high error volumes. Errors rejected during a spike are dropped, and a sustained spike can still incur extra usage charges. Laritor supports configured recording filters and sampling; equivalent automatic error-spike rate limiting is not listed. Choose collection settings that fit the evidence you need.
Can I run Raygun and Laritor in parallel?
Yes. Test both in a representative app or environment, compare known failures and slow work, check alert delivery, and measure combined collection overhead and billed usage. Keep access to your existing Raygun history while Laritor records new activity. There is no documented automatic Raygun history import. Review duplicated alerts, exception-handler setup, queue workers, and privacy settings.
About this comparison
Sources and comparison notes.
Published by Laritor, independently of Raygun. Official pricing, billing, Laravel/PHP setup, APM compatibility, Crash Reporting, browser sessions and Web Vitals, dashboards, reports, deployment tracking, spike protection, privacy, AI, and MCP documentation were reviewed on . Availability depends on SDK configuration and subscription.
“Laravel native” means primarily designed for Laravel. Raygun genuinely supports Laravel exceptions through Raygun4PHP. Its reviewed APM compatibility guide lists Node.js, Ruby, and .NET, without PHP/Laravel. Browser RUM works with Laravel websites but measures frontend activity. Custom error metadata can describe other Laravel work; it does not establish automatic collection or dedicated resource views.
The calculator compares a shared exception count, related Laritor billable events, and the selected Raygun Crash Reporting tier. Raygun counts each processed error instance once; its diagnostic metadata does not create additional billed errors. Laritor counts configured retained events in 2 KB increments. The selected Raygun tier’s monthly allocation and on-demand rate are applied; annual subscriptions show a monthly equivalent and annual base commitment, with excess errors still billed monthly.
Additional Raygun reserved-capacity purchases, bonus allowances, RUM/APM subscriptions, AI-provider usage, add-ons, taxes, negotiated contracts, and trials are excluded. Raygun permits additional reserved events in 50K increments; its public reserved-volume slider uses 100K steps. Purchasing extra reserved capacity can change the estimate. This is a published-plan-plus-on-demand scenario, rather than a claim of the lowest possible price. Laritor estimates strictly above $500 require a quote; exactly $500 remains numeric.
Raygun has custom dashboards, scheduled Crash Reporting reports, and unlimited apps and members on standard paid plans. These are shared capabilities. Laritor’s distinctions are its included Laravel widget library, backend execution resources, and performance PDF snapshots. Raygun also has in-app AI and MCP; its MCP includes account-management actions as well as investigation. Laritor MCP is read-only and focuses on exception execution context. AI-provider charges are additional on either side when applicable.
