For OpenReplay alternatives, reproduce a harmless UI bug with a test account and check what the replay actually captures.
- Verify masking of passwords, payment fields, and sensitive page content.
- Check network, console, error, and event correlation needed to diagnose the bug.
- Measure script impact on load and interaction performance.
- Review consent, retention, access roles, deletion, and self-hosting needs.
- Export a replay or incident record for the existing support workflow.
A more detailed recording is not necessarily better. Capture only what helps diagnose issues while protecting users.
