Ask HN: Who uses Parse?
I'm a heavy Parse user (http://parse.com) and am considering building a developer-focussed product on top of Parse. I'm interested to know how many of you guys are currently using or have previously used Parse.
Thanks for replying!
- hobonumber1 12y agoI'm specifically curious to know how many people have used Parse Core (the cloud DB service).
- anonfunction 12y agoWe use parse for publicapis.com and have no complaints.
- ed 12y agoI have a lot of experience with Parse. What are you considering building? There are definitely some gaps in the product, particularly a sane job scheduler. I also found it tricky to deal with the relatively short timeouts, which ate a lot of our cycles to track down and work around. Unfortunately my next few projects won't be built on Parse, which is too bad because I know and really like the team, and think there should be something a little more abstracted than Heroku for building a backend service.
- karmanmike 12y agoWe used parse for the DB of our game on Playstation Mobile. Really enjoyed developing with the service but the app never saw a huge amount of traffic. Plan on trying it out with a few larger jobs in the near future. http://karmaninteractive.com/2013tikirush/ http://karmaninteractive.com/2013tikirush/
