Sentry is a log aggregation tool that really shines when paired with applications that have the mentality that any log message at or above warning requires human attention. It can be thought of as a replacement to automated emails from syslog.
Sentry was conceived in 2010 at Disqus and got the first paying customer in February 2012.
It supports many way to report issues which get aggregated and only "new" issues are reported.
