Openreplay
OpenReplay is a session replay platform and frontend debugging suite designed to record and play back user browser sessions. It functions as a user behavior monitoring system that captures interaction patterns and technical metadata to identify conversion issues and revenue loss.
The platform is distinguished by its self-hosted infrastructure model, allowing the recording and analytics pipeline to be deployed on private servers for full control over data residency. It also includes a browser co-browsing tool for real-time screen sharing and direct communication to provide immediate technical support.
The system provides comprehensive observability by correlating session recordings with network requests, console logs, and application state changes. It features tools for automated bug report capture, backend log synchronization, and data privacy management to obscure sensitive information before it reaches the server.
The software allows for the upload of JavaScript sourcemaps to resolve minified code during the debugging process.
Features
- Self-Hosted Infrastructure - Provides a recording and analytics pipeline that can be deployed on private servers for full data residency control.
- Session Replays - Provides a platform for capturing and visualizing the visual history and execution logs of browser sessions.
- Self-Hosted Analytics Platforms - Offers a self-hosted analytics platform designed for deployment on private servers to ensure full data residency control.
- Real-time Collaboration - Provides real-time viewing of a user's screen for immediate technical support without external software.
- Product Usage Analytics - Provides analytical tools to track user behavior and identify conversion issues or revenue loss.
- Session Tracking - Implements user activity recording via a CDN-delivered tracking script to correlate browser actions.
- Frontend Debugging Suites - Provides a comprehensive toolkit that correlates session recordings with network requests and application state for frontend debugging.
- Frontend Debugging Workflows - Analyzes network requests, console errors, and application state changes within recorded sessions to identify root causes.
- Data Privacy Controls - Defines rules to obscure or ignore sensitive information at the source to prevent private data from reaching servers.
- Data Privacy Management - Defines rules to obscure or ignore sensitive information at the source to ensure private data never reaches storage.
- Data Sanitization - Filters or masks sensitive information in the browser before data is transmitted to the storage backend.
- Session-Context Debugging - Analyzes network activity, errors, state changes, and performance metrics to reproduce bugs within a session context.
- Session Recording - Captures and replays browser interactions alongside network logs to reproduce bugs and analyze product usage.
- Collaborative Browsing Environments - Offers shared browser sessions allowing support agents to view and interact with a user's instance in real time.
- Co-browsing Tools - Enables support agents to view a user's screen in real-time and initiate calls for technical assistance.
- Session Reconstruction - Captures DOM changes as a stream of events to reconstruct the user interface during session playback.
- Automated Technical Reports - Records browser sessions and automatically generates technical reports containing the metadata required to fix bugs.
- Sourcemap Management - Allows the transfer of JavaScript mapping files to the server to resolve minified code during session playback.
- User Behavior Analysis - Analyzes individual user journeys and interaction patterns to identify conversion issues and revenue loss.
- Action-Based State Tracking - Logs application state changes and store actions to synchronize frontend behavior with a timeline of events.
- Frontend State Tracking - Logs state changes from store managers and monitors network requests to identify root causes of issues.
- Network Interception Tools - Intercepts browser fetch and XHR calls to capture and log outgoing network traffic for debugging.
- Method Interception Proxies - Wraps fetch and XHR globals to log outgoing requests and incoming responses without altering application logic.
- Backend Log Synchronization - Links server-side logs from external providers to session replays to correlate frontend behavior with backend events.
- Source Map Deobfuscators - Matches minified stack traces against uploaded mapping files to display original source code during debugging.
- Request-Scoped Log Context - Links external server-side logs to frontend sessions using shared unique identifiers to map full-stack request flows.
- Session Replay - Session replay stack for developers.
