76 Stream Testimonials

"We put that up on Hackernews, and within a few hours, it went to number one. The site started crashing because we had public Dropbox links. The head of engineering for Dropbox happened to look at the Hackernews post and said that they’d upgrade us to the maximum pro plan for the day. They’re not supposed to be used for public Dropbox links, but he said they’d keep the site up because they think it’s cool. And that was day one of Unsplash."

"The high-quality documentation was really good, but being able to spin up a working version locally was super important. I could validate what this integration would actually feel like for the team."

“Youth will have the opportunity to log in during the live show, and we’ll specifically ask viewers to use the chat to participate in contests, ask questions, and win prizes. We anticipate some very large viewership numbers for this event and a lot of activity in the chat box.”

"This capability, on a humanitarian level, is transformational. If you're looking at any crisis where people are displaced, have to go to another country and communicate with others, giving them advice for getting settled, or helping them find a place to stay or a school to enroll their kids in—these interactions are priceless. Facilitating this through Stream speaks volumes for its technology and the immeasurable value its team brings to YesHelp."

“From posting updates to commenting and more, Stream provided us with the most flexible and scalable solution for displaying all our user’s activities. The Stream team made implementing our news feed solution a collaborative experience and ultimately the right decision for us.”

“Generally, the integration went well — I think it was pretty straightforward. There was a little back and forth between our team and Stream’s team, and the support has gone well."

“Communication is a big area where I think Stream has helped us by allowing us to incorporate chat and announcements."

"Previously, we didn't have a chat interface inside our app, Communication happened on WhatsApp, and we couldn't monitor the content or protect our customers' privacy."

“It (Stream Chat) is another tool that has spared us from having to reinvent the wheel, reinvent the architecture while providing us the granular control, the scalability, the reliability and the analytics layer that we need to really free our engineers up to focus on the differentiated user experience.”

"There was no shared picture. You couldn't always reach the right person at the right time, and messages were often missed or repeated."

"Initially, I planned to implement WebSocket communication manually using Laravel on the backend and React Native on the frontend, However, after assessing the time investment required to learn, integrate, and scale such a solution, it became clear that a more efficient approach was necessary."

“As time went by and our use cases got more advanced, we started chatting with the team [at Stream] to get answers. We feel that we established a good relationship with the team, and with time, we moved between the tiers toward a personalized feed solution. For a few weeks, our team worked in a tight relationship with the Stream team to achieve our goals for the product.”

"Stream's React Native SDK gives us the whole UI—and building that in-house is a nightmare. We also have offline support with the React Native SDK, which we could never build ourselves."

“I’ve worked with a lot of technology solution vendors in my career, and the term ‘partner’ tends to be used loosely, but my team feels like we have a true partnership with Stream. Instead of just telling us a price and a plan, Stream is committed to understanding our business so that we can architect, build, and customize our apps exactly how we want them using Stream’s technology.”

"We're very happy with Stream Chat, and we plan to expand the functionality to other areas of the platform, like our message board, which will allow us to be flexible and create a cohesive user experience as the product becomes more complex."
