## Reviews

### "solutions quickly" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *12 September 2024* | Medical Devices | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very useful because it automatically provides solutions to the faults that the devices present. On other occasions, faults could take hours or days to be fixed with Memfault. It is not like that, it is a matter of hours, very few if the fault is large. Otherwise, its solution process is very fast.
> 
> **Cons**: It is reliable, safe and useful. I have not had any problems of any kind since its installation.
> 
> It monitors each device safely and provides the confidence that it is protected against any fault that it may have. The solution will be automatic and prevents it from affecting the work of others.

### "saves time and money" — 4.0/5

> **Roger** | *10 September 2024* | Consumer Electronics | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The functionality that Memfault provides makes it possible to quickly find faults that take hours of work to manually decipher. All critical problems that occur in the system are quickly and intelligently analyzed by Memfault, and each detail is developed and a solution scheme is developed, saving a lot of time
> 
> **Cons**: During the time I have been using Memfault, I have not disliked anything about the customer service or the service function, everything has been correct
> 
> It saves time working to find out the fault in the system and to be able to have a monitored system so that the faults are not serious and when they occur, they are quickly fixed.

### "A must have product for any connected device" — 5.0/5

> **Atul** | *17 August 2022* | Consumer Electronics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Ability to record a software issue (e.g. especially program crash and watchdog reboot) on device and make necessary information available on cloud.
> 
> **Cons**: Inability to provide full information to developers for C++ project.
Cloud interface could be more user friendly
> 
> Memfault support is excellent and I liked it the way they made themselves available for us during whole integration.

### "The future of embedded debugging" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *10 August 2022* | Consumer Electronics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Can see FW deployments at a glance
Can create sub-groups to deploy specific FWs to for internal testing (And can change on the fly)
Better stacktrace visualization than my IDE
Real-time visibility into new problems and regressions
Has helped me track down stack overflow issues, heap fragmentation issues, issues with the manufacturer's BLE stack and all the kinds of critical hard-to-track problems that would have taken 10x longer without it.
There is nothing else like it. It eases debugging of any problem more than any other tool I have ever used.
> 
> **Cons**: (Note: these are all minor and I have already notified the Memfault team about them.)
I can't easily get access to the raw per-device metric data via a documented API.
I can't easily see the FW version that the metric data was produced on via the web interface.
There is a bit of confusing about which visualization tool to use for the metric data and it seems to have some bugs.
It is hard to manage the metrics generally. There is a limit on them it is hard to deprecate ones you create that you realize you don't need. Etc.
Some confusing things about being able to deploy debug/release builds and managing variants of build types. (Perhaps more education on our part could have fixed this?)
> 
> Companies at this scale are really a group people and a culture and not a nebulous entity. This team has been fantastic in communication, issue resolution, and proactive attempts to identify problems.
They have lived with the problems of not having this tool so they understand what needs to exist to have a good end-user experience.

### "Excellent IoT monitoring with minimal implementation effort" — 5.0/5

> **Konstantin** | *30 December 2022* | Consumer Electronics | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Memfault was very easy to set up with our nRF52 MCU. Their SDK is excellent and plugs right in. It allows us to track device metrics and various errors. Without Memfault we would either have no visibility into what's happening on devices or have to build an in-house solution. One thing I really like about Memfault is the ability to get coredump details (including file and line numbers).Memfaults OTA functionality is great as well. They handle all the business logic of whether the device needs to be updated and serves new firmware when necessary.
> 
> **Cons**: The fine grained access control is lacking. Every user has access to nearly all of memfault. This can be problematic for production deployments when you want only a select group of people access to something (eg: roll out OTA updates).
> 
> Memfault gives us visibility into how our devices/firmware is performing in the field. Their support is top-notch.
