In this case study, we delve into Topmate's journey of improving their engineering velocity through the strategic implementation of Zipy, a powerful error monitoring tool.

The Problem

Topmate faced challenges in efficiently identifying and resolving user-reported issues. They solely relied on manual user reports on issues and testing processes to detect and address platform issues. This reactive approach often resulted in issues going unnoticed, and delays ni issue resolution. Al of this subsequently led to decreased user satisfaction and operational inefficiencies. Besides the obvious customer impact, there were significant business impacts for Topmate. For example, disruptions in the booking process for sessions with coaches on the platform cause a loss of trust among users and a potential loss of business opportunities.

The Solution

Topmate, recognizing the limitations of their reactive approach to issue resolution, sought a solution to improve their platform's stability and user experience. They decided to implement Zipy, a platform that would prove to be an ideal option for their error monitoring and user session recording tool.
