Reduced manual work and built reliable real-time collaboration with serverless messaging
I love Ably for its advanced pub/sub messaging capabilities, which help us with messaging Delta Compression, allowing us to send only changes from previous messages instead of entire payloads every time. For example, if I have to say 'hi', instead of sending the whole payload, it only sends the change in the current payload, reducing bandwidth consumption and enabling high-frequency data streaming. This major change has made our clients really happy as they receive notifications and messages without latency. Additionally, if a client goes offline, Ably stores messages in history for up to 72 hours, allowing clients to query history and catch up on missed events, ensuring complete stream continuity. It also supports multi-protocol, using WebSockets and gracefully falling back to server-sent events and long polling as needed, including support for MQTT and IoT devices along with pub/sub control for easy migration.I appreciate the serverless integration that has the integrated native web hook, instantly triggering serverless functions such as AWS Lambda and Azure Function when specific real-time events occur. It also allows Kafka Connector for seamless ingestion of messages from Kafka topics to stream them out to millions of users in milliseconds.

Integrated hiring and learning have transformed staffing accuracy and accelerated career growth
TalentEdge is a global HR EdTech platform and running really well, but I feel that there are our Centers of Excellence and small and mid-sized organizations which are not very plump in terms of business and in terms of average business revenue every year. I would definitely request them to go ahead with some generous discounting for small and mid-sized EdTech companies so that all our vendors and partners can also utilize the services. Additionally, our system requires a lot of customization very frequently. I also believe that if more business teams can come together and discuss our ideas and bring some customizable features for us, it will create a booming relationship for both of us. We develop people and organizations, and when these two meet together, organizations grow. That is the idea I really believe in. There are a few improvements that we would definitely like to have. We would definitely like to have the mobile experience. Right now, whatever subscription we have taken is of desktop version only. If a mobile version can also be introduced, that would be a great help. Additionally, I would request their tech team to timely organize webinars, orientations, and workshop sessions for newer people and newer organizations who may take a bit longer time for understanding and navigating the entire system. Rest everything is great and the system is working in a very fast way. There is no lag. The system is working great.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Ably has a big capacity to stream data all over the world, has higher reliability and a 99.99% uptime, offers robust security guarantees and ease of integration, and saved at least 80% of the cost that would have required more developers and more time for integration testing and development."
"Ably has improved our organization by enhancing real-time communication capabilities and providing reliable data delivery."
"We experience vast improvements across many areas with Ably; when users connect bank accounts, we previously had to poll repeatedly, which is now replaced by Ably's real-time infrastructure that maintains a persistent back-end connection, significantly reducing the need for infrastructure management and API load, resulting in average bank connection display times decreasing from eight to twelve seconds down to one to two seconds, and with persistent back-end connections reducing API calls, we achieve a lower operational load, seeing an impressive reduction of thirty thousand to forty thousand calls monthly."
"Ably's API integration is intuitive; it definitely improved our efficiency, and we saw faster user interaction and around a 20% reduction in latency during peak times, which improved user experience as well."
"Ably has positively impacted our organization by providing a good return on investment by avoiding the labor cost of building and maintaining a custom WebSocket server."
"My most-liked feature is its highly reliable real-time messaging capacity."
"There have been many visible and invisible benefits that we see after introducing TalentEdge, with our placement percentage jumping from 50% to 80%, project timelines shrinking from 15 months to six to eight months, around 30% savings on expenses, and a 20% enhancement in productivity, all while making employees happier and reducing errors through automated, transparent processes."
"Overall, we have been able to generate a profit of approximately 30 to 40 percent over the past five years."
"Overall, this is a great efficient product that has led to a very focused approach in terms of managing teams."
"In conclusion, TalentEdge has become one of the most optimal recruitment platforms, offering significant cost optimization and enhancing candidate experience through advanced hiring and learning management system capabilities."
"The features, the proficiency, and the efficiency coming in the entire HR system and processing are phenomenal."
 

Cons

"Ably can be improved in several areas."
"It falls just short of a perfect ten only because full twenty-four-hour phone or live chat escalation is heavily gated behind their highest enterprise pricing tiers."
"Overall, Ably appears strong for managed real-time operations, but could improve areas such as pricing predictability."
"Currently, we are experiencing somewhat laggard communication regarding overall development, but many advancements have already been witnessed that could provide significant momentum to our development activity."
"While every experience has been great, there are occasional delays in ticket resolution when the system slows down, particularly over weekends; minimizing these operational lags would elevate TalentEdge further."
"I would definitely request them to go ahead with some generous discounting for small and mid-sized EdTech companies so that all our vendors and partners can also utilize the services."
"We need more training sessions from TalentEdge team, and extended training every three months would be beneficial, as many functionalities are frequently updated, leaving our team unaware of newer features."
"There are definitely a few improvement areas that are currently giving us challenges."
