TL;DR - Blazing fast, flexible, reliable, affordable. Everything from documents, databases, caching, vectors and even all our AI functions - all in one place. Shortened our development by years!

Before Convex, I preferred Subbase and Firebase for database and database services, but after discovering Convex, that changed. If you use Convex in your projects, you have superpowers. Its ease of use and capabilities are truly beneficial for developers with limited time. Moreover, its live data transfer and detailed logging system simplify many tasks.

We've used convex for three-four of months now. The dev team is really exited about it. DX is epic. Pub/sub is auto-on, everything updates instantly. Realtime! Convex makes development so much faster.

Lovely tool for devs to get up and running with their apps. I've been enjoying the developer experience a lot for the app I'm building. I find that Convex gives me the simplicity and speed that I'm looking for without sacrificing quality.

I've tried to use Chef 16 (sixteen) times. It has not been able to produce code without error or according to simplest requirements once. Right now I just tried to load the last project I was attempting with it, a simple blog page, and it just fails telling me something is wrong with the environment. I am sure I am the only one who has these problems, and otherwise it's working fine for everyone else.

I’ve been using Convex for the real-time updates in our CRM, and it has been a game-changer. The platform is incredibly easy to learn and integrate, which made the onboarding process smooth. The real-time features work so good, keeping our data sync'd without any issues. I’ve also implemented Convex in other projects and consistently experienced the same level of reliability and performance. Also, their pricing is very reasonable for the value they provide. I highly recommend Convex to anyone looking for an efficient and cost-effective real-time backend.
