Mihir Raval - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Software Developer at Plutomen Technology
Strong typing has reduced runtime failures and supports predictable backend operations
The biggest area for improvement in Ada is ecosystem depth. While Ada itself is very solid, the library ecosystem is still thinner compared to Go and Rust, especially for newer cloud-native tooling and integrations, meaning we occasionally have to build wrappers or bindings ourselves, which adds some friction. Documentation and onboarding could be smoother, especially for developers new to Ada coming from modern ecosystems. The core docs are good, but practical examples around debugging, package patterns, and a modern deployment workflow could be more polished. We created some internal starter templates to shorten the ramp-up time, which helped, but better out-of-the-box guidance would make adoption easier.

Centralized event tracking has improved product analytics and simplified data workflows
I think Hightouch as a platform has a lot to offer. It is primarily a CRM or reverse ETL type of offering with a lot of AI bells and whistles. However, it feels to me that the entire events offering is a bit of a second-class citizen in the suite of tools they offer. I say this because a lot of the documentation is out of date, and we hit a few random edge cases when using the events platform, which felt a little raw compared to other, more mature event platforms. I would say the improvement here would be for them to spend a little more time and attention on the platform itself, or provide a little more TLC, especially from the events perspective.
