What our customers are saying about Ably

  • We run thousands of services with 100s of daily deploys by autonomous teams. Ably’s infrastructure layer supports this agile SoA environment. And the team provide responsive, collaborative support that help us meet our technical, business, and product development requirements.

    Max Freiert

    Product Group Lead / HubSpot
  • Our formal evaluation process and double load testing proved that Ably was the only platform that could meet our very challenging performance targets. They delivered without a hitch in 2018 and we look forward to working with them again next year.

    Jeremy Keech

    PMO Manager / Tennis Australia
  • The integration process was smooth and easy. We benefited from helpful and informative customer service, good documentation and readily available answers to all the questions we had. This helped get our product to market super fast.

    Mehmet Burak Arığ

    Product Manager / Onedio
  • We're taking our first steps into cloud integration, using serverless features from AWS (API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB, S3, Kinesis, etc), and using Ably for notifications, messaging and team chat rooms. Ably has been great in accelerating our Cloud adoption; we don't have the dev-ops to maintain fleets of VMs or Docker containers, so your solution was instrumental in getting our application up-and-running in such a short period of time.

  • With approximately 290,000 passenger trips a day it is vital that Metra deliver real-time updates for train arrival information. With the tools made available by Ably, Metra is able to deliver real-time data to customers quickly, dependably, and cost effectively, which prove beneficial for both Metra and Metra passengers.

    CIO / Metra
  • Simple and powerful API, we were up and running in 10 minutes powering instantaneous realtime sports stats and helping our players get ahead of the game.

    Technical Director / Fantasy Football Fix/ Sports Analytics Group
  • Ably has helped Quintype drastically reduce the human and infrastructure costs of maintaining realtime infrastructure. We easily moved from a primus/node.js/websocket backend to using ably to push updates to your customers. Ably’s presence and channels APIs are extremely easy to work with, and ensure that messages go to the right users, in a cost effective way.

    Tejas Dinkar

    VP of Engineering / Quintype
  • I can also mention that we have tried Ably for a week or so and we absolutely love it. It's very easy to use and understand. Especially, the realtime client is brilliantly handling all of the complexity of connecting and reconnecting using WebSockets. We tried to do it ourselves and we've learned that is a lot of stuff that needs to be taken care of.

    Richard Bjorntvedt

    Technical Manager & Co-Founder / 24SevenOffice
  • Choosing Ably meant we were able to simplify our realtime architecture, saving us valuable engineering time to redeploy elsewhere and focus on growing our user base. Plus the combination of Ably’s unique capability of guaranteed message ordering and delivery and EU-only data storage for our compliance needs meant Ably was the right realtime platform for us.

    Co-founder and CTO / Hospify
  • I haven’t even had to think of Ably since we got set up. That’s exactly what I want from my realtime service: to just know it will work.

    Matthew Hall

    Chief Technical Officer / SpringboardVR
  • As a data point, we were suffering from out-of-order delivery of messages on our previous realtime platform. A reasonably important issue for our use case, which is concerned with keeping frontend client apps in sync with the backend. Those issues either disappeared, or were very much reduced once we’ve migrated onto Ably.
