Our take
Traditional processes of debugging apps and IT services are becoming obsolete due to the mass adoption of cloud-based tools. However, whilst cloud-based development presents a modern and unified solution to application building, frameworks for troubleshooting such services are not something all businesses are prepared for.
Honeycomb provides troubleshooting tools that allow cloud-based software developers to observe code on API tools, live applications and microservices. The troubleshooting dashboard is designed to be highly visual and user-friendly, allowing developers to diagnose cloud-based problems without having a deep understanding of computer science.
The company is building momentum after impressive revenue growth and a robust amount of funding. This is being channelled into geographical expansion and the development of its offerings. In 2025, Honeycomb signed a three-year strategic collaboration agreement with AWS and launched several new product advancements.
