Hookdeck Overview

What is Hookdeck?

Hookdeck is a fast and reliable event gateway for receiving, processing, and delivering asynchronous messages. It centralizes and streamlines communication between services – external providers (e.g. Shopify), internal endpoints (e.g. APIs), and any combination thereof. Configure Hookdeck platform resources and features such as event routing, filters, and transformations. And let Hookdeck automatically retry failed events for painless error recovery. Our developer tooling enables teams to build, deploy, operate, and observe their event-driven applications with confidence.

Product Description

Hookdeck is a prebuilt webhook infrastructure that gives developers the tooling they need to monitor and troubleshoot all their inbound asynchronous events. Once integrated, Hookdeck unlocks a suite of tools for developers to manage their webhooks – alerting, rate limiting, automatic retries, one-to-many delivery, payload transformations, local testing via the CLI, a robust API, and more – so developers can spend less time maintaining their event infrastructure and more time building the features their users love.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

The easy navigation and the simple steps to create connections to capture crucial events are some of the best features of Hookdeck. The ability to create and switch multiple connections at ease is what "hooks" me with Hookdeck. I use this software very often and integrate many of my apps because of its easy integration. Also, the customer support is top-notch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

Nothing significant so far, it's just very rarely you need to refresh the page to see the latest settings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

It reduces the effort in capturing the events and crucial data from different sources which has been a hectic job for me. It now saves my time which helps me focus on other important tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I've managed queues and buses for years now, and I know how much work goes into re-inventing the same tooling every single time. They are hard to log, to monitor, set up, observe and debug. With Hookdeck I manage to set up series of queues in a very easy workflow, which makes me choose to use queues much more often. Previously I would always ask "do I really need a queue for this" now I just set up queues whenever i feel like it - in fron tof webhooks, async apis, microservice LBs etc. All my new projects are running on Hookdeck now and we've entirely replaced all RabbitMQ and EventBridge instances. Hookdeck has also developed a vibrant Slack community where we get support from the lead technical stakeholders, which means a world to me, as this is very much about having trust. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

Since it is a new paradigm, it took me a while to convice other stakeholders that we can trust it, especially the super engineery types who never worked with queues and are hungry for needless complexity. It also took some trial and error to figure out if we need hookdeck in development. Finally I'm not too happy with the state of dev/staging/prod environment support, even though things seem to be getting much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

I believe in simplicity and elegance in software, and after years and years of building, I would prefer a well-built tool over building it myself. This is percisely why my new projects are serverless and on Vercel. Hookdeck matches this paradigm super-duper well. I no longer need terraform repositories, AWS toolchains and complex event bus domain knowledge. I get to focus on building stuff, fully getting all the utilities of your standard AWS based Rabbit or EventBridge setup. Onboarding juniors is a breeze now as well, as it is easier for them to observe the system and understand it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

The whole idea is great. I mainly use make.com to create webhook URLs and their log view is very limited. I use hookdeck so that I will be able to see logs and to solve issues I may have. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

At first, it wasn't very intuitive to me, and I had to search a bit and see videos on how to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

The main issue it is solving is showing a wider picture of the log errors on my webhooks hosted on make.com. I can't see the webhook logs on make.com so I use hookdeck as a middle man, so I can see what are the issue I am encountering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

it was quick and easy to get started, and it met the needs of my simple task in a matter of minutes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

i assume that hookdeck can handle a lot of more complicated tasks than my own. there were many setup configurations that i had to navigate that didnt apply to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

i needed to inspect a payload that was running from a public website. my application to receive the payload was running on localhost, so i did not have an endpoint to receive and inspect the payload. hookdeck enabled me to set up an endpoint where i could inspect the payload for its structure.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I am currently using Hookdeck to test webhooks for developing our company's API. it was so easy and had support for a ton of authentication methods. I tried several other tools and honestly was blown away by what Hookdeck offers! I'm loving it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

It took me a minute to understand the interface. Wasn't that complicated, but as I tend to do, I jumped in without reading or learning anywhere. Didn't take long and I got the hang of it. Super Powerful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am working on developing our API platform and needed a way to standup a webhook without building something. Hookdeck was perfect! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I don't know how to program, but even so, I managed to configure the system for my needs. I am getting a lot of benefit from it, as it optimizes the input in other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

For some things, it is still necessary to use code, however, the internal AI itself can often solve it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

He filters messages (webhooks) before sending them to other systems that would charge for this flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I work with IoT, which means connecting devices with different APIs depending on the technology, protocol, and communication layers. Hookdeck always ensures data delivery and greatly facilitates the monitoring of our platform's stability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

I would like it to have a way to configure a /dev/null destination, something that allows me to just see what is coming in without forwarding it anywhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

Without having to code anything, I can monitor the input of my APIs and debug errors by receiving real-time alerts of failures in my implementations due to unconsidered cases. Additionally, I can obtain usage statistics that help me take measurements and size my solutions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I have used it in multiple projects while setting webhook endpoints for different integrations. I have tried other tools but always come back to Hookdeck, it makes it super easy to develop webhook endpoints while working locally, has all the tools that I ever needed (and more), enabling me to iterate fast and debug without effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

It has so many options that sometimes it is easy to get lost in their dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows to work with local webhook endpoints, works as a proxy with superpowers so we can have a public url that is listening for the webhook events and forward them to a localhost endpoint. I fire it up everytime I need to work on a webhook endpoint locally, and I can inspect the payload, headers, replay the event, get typings for the payload, logs, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

It really solves a pain we had, that we could potentially miss webhooks during a short dowtime.

Also the UI is neat and comprehensible. It's easy to visualise and retry failed events manually. I barely go to the dashboard goes it just works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

Honnestly, nothing so far, we are happy with the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

Hookdeck receives webhooks from external publishers, and it makes sure it's ingested by our systems. If a request fails (maybe we are scaling up under the load, or we had a small downtime), it will be retried a bit later. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Hookdeck?

I'd highly recommend using Hookdeck over ngrox, cloudflare localtunnels for incoming local webhooks development. Because:

- The Hookdeck UI lets you inspect incoming webhook payloads, and replay them quickly during rapid local development.

- The Hookdeck CLI lets you have create multiple profiles for development - in case your

services work with multiple incoming webhook services (and you need to map them to different paths and ports).

- Very good search to get to the older webhook payloads and replay them. The developer experience is top notch.

- Its free for local development, with a one click signup process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Hookdeck?

Nothing of note for me. I wish more developers. colleagues knew about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Hookdeck solving and how is that benefiting you?

It drastically increases by productivity when working with incoming webhooks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
