Amazing tool to identify performance bottlenecks in PHP apps
What do you like best?
Tideways makes it easy to spot where the most important performance problems are in a PHP application and its traces are detailed enough to visually see where you need to fix problems. It helped me identify performance issues that only existed for specific users in production which were otherwise impossible to reproduce.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
Tideways has helped me identify the cause of performance problems in many different PHP applications. The way it surfaces problematic requests and provides a great visual way to see where time is spent makes it easy to pinpoint the exact thing you need to improve to make a site faster. Having it running on production system has helped me identify user data specific performance problems which could not be reproduced locally or by any other user.
