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

1. id stitchind would be a key and most important feature for us, as we are using mutiple platforms, we really need to stitch the ids together and have a 360 view of customer. Also as 3rd party cookies being disabled, we need a more relaible id.

2. retl: make sure our platforms are sharing the same data source. We are also planning on passing ML results using the retl function of rudderstack to further enpower our personalization Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to setup and integrates directly into our data warehouse, while maintaining full ownership of our data.

Support is excellent, each client has their own dedicated team who are quick to respond to any queries, often within 24 hours, despite our timezone differences.

What do you dislike about RudderStack?

Documentation of features can be improved, lack of automated alerts if any pieplines are down or encountering an error.

Troubleshooting for Profiles can also be challenging due to basic error handling - the same error code can be thrown for different issues though it's understandable as it is a relatively new service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Integrating and unifying diverse data sources to create a comprehensive view of each customer.

Its data warehouse first focus is a game changer. The low-friction data ingress and egress warehouse within a single tool reduces our maintenance overhead and provides more actionable data.

Their responsiveness and expertise have consistently exceeded our expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RudderStack?

Having Rudderstack onboard as our destination of choice for product events has made a massive difference to our velocity as a data team.

Rudderstack's simple transforms meant we never needed to write more than 20 lines of code to get a source or destination online. Its simple interface also let us easily see our entire data architecture at a glance. Rudderstack also allows you to enable and disable sources and destinations in a no-mess way. We avoided outages while migrating, which is rare with a migration project of this size.

In addition, the Rudderstack team have been massively helpful in getting us online and providing support for our (sometimes outlandish) data requirements. Thanks folks! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RudderStack?

We're keen to see more automation of deploys to Rudderstack and more full-featured connectors to some destinations: Rudderstack is great for the happy path, but sometimes more obscure features of destinations aren't available. But overall very happy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We collect millions of a events a day from our products and need to push them to destinations (e.g. Mixpanel, Snowflake) with completely different data shape requirements. Rudderstack does a wonderful job of making most of that complexity completely disappear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about RudderStack?

Rudderstack powers our entire customer data event flow. We have connected it to more than 6 sources and over 10 destinations. Our engineers never have an issue implementing anything, our product managers & analysts have the power to wire up new tools and transform data using JS as needed (without an engineer) and it just all magically works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RudderStack?

- New version rollouts could be done better, we had a bug that was caused by one but nothing in the UI told us there was an issue (as it was working fine before the new release) and it took a few days for the support team to realise what was going on

- Very minimal timing but twice we've had outages which caused event lost, this is about 15 mins each time over the last year Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Fast integration for new tools

Saving engineers from working on "solved problems" and making them more productive on meaningful work

We have instant access to all of our customer data in all tools, this means a simple firing of an event from a new backend data process means we can action it in something like an email marketing platform Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
