How to choose between them
The trade-offs that follow from the figures above, rather than a single winner.
- Cloudflare starts cheaper — $25 a month against $26 for Sentry.
- They charge differently: Sentry is tiered and Cloudflare is free paid. That, not the headline price, decides which is cheaper at your size.
- Their scores are within half a point of each other, so neither is the obvious choice on our scoring alone.
Scores follow our published methodology. Prices come from each vendor’s own pricing page — see the source and date on Sentry and Cloudflare.
