Core Node API

What do you like best about the product?

QuickNode stands out for several key reasons. First, their documentation is exceptionally well-written and comprehensive, making it easy to get started and troubleshoot issues. The platform is highly customizable, allowing you to tailor configurations to your specific needs.
What really impressed me is their extensive support for multiple blockchain networks - they support a lot of different chains which gives great flexibility for multi-chain development. Their customer support team is notably fast and responsive, which is crucial when you're working on time-sensitive projects.
The streaming capabilities are particularly strong, with excellent performance and useful filters that help save on delivered data space, which keeps costs manageable while maintaining the data quality you need

What do you dislike about the product?

Honestly, there's very little to complain about. If I had to mention something, it would be that increasing the streams limit could be beneficial for larger-scale operations

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

QuickNode solves the challenge of streaming specific blockchain data across multiple chains with pre-filtering capabilities. This is really hard to find in other solutions that allow you to stream data that's already been filtered before it's sent.
This benefits us by reducing bandwidth costs, eliminating the need to build our own filtering infrastructure, and allowing us to focus on our core product instead of managing blockchain data processing. It's turned a major technical hurdle into a simple API integration

What do you like best about the product?

What stands out most is how smooth everything works. The platform is fast, reliable, and the dashboard is clean and straightforward. Their RPC endpoints perform consistently well, and having access to multiple chains in one place is a big plus. The documentation is clear, and whenever I’ve needed support, the team has been quick to respond and genuinely helpful

What do you dislike about the product?

I wish there was a more affordable plan between the free and build tier or something in between build and accelerate. The jump in price feels a little steep for solo developers or small projects that are just getting started. A middle option could help bridge that gap without sacrificing the features we need.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use QuickNode to connect to the Solana RPC network and handle transactions from our backend. It saves us the hassle of running and maintaining our own node, which makes our infrastructure much more reliable and scalable. The performance has been consistent, and it allows us to focus on building features instead of worrying about network connectivity or uptime

What do you like best about the product?

We used Quicknode to monitor solana transactions as they arrive on the blockchain for specified user wallets. The API was well-documented, and we were able to build what we needed by combining several WSS subscription methods to get notified about account changes or new logs, and several HTTP methods to gather the data about each event.

What do you dislike about the product?

There were many steps required to build the solana transaction monitoring we needed. Competitor Alchemy provides a WSS subscription endpoint for the Eth ecosystem that provides a feed of transactions according to a set of filters (toAddress(es), fromAddress(es), time). That is a very convenient one-stop-shop subscription. I'd like to see Quicknode bundle their functionality to provide a similar transaction subscription endpoint.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need to monitor Solana transactions for our users, and Quicknode provided a mature and useful suite of API endpoints to subscribe and query data from the Solana blockchain. I see the survey questions below asking about security; for this type of monitoring task, security is not a primary concern since we are collecting public data.

What do you like best about the product?

QuickNode is developer-friendly, stable, and fast. Their support is responsive, and they’re quick to adopt the latest node upgrades. The free tier is great for learning or demo dApps, making it easy to prototype and evaluate before scaling.

What do you dislike about the product?

There’s a significant jump from the $49 “Build” plan to the $249 “Accelerate” plan. A mid-tier option would be valuable for growing teams who outgrow the basic plan but aren’t ready for enterprise-level usage. The pricing structure could be more startup-friendly.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

QuickNode gives us a reliable alternative to running in-house nodes or relying solely on Chainstack. This redundancy improves availability and resilience in our infrastructure, ensuring more consistent uptime and reducing operational risk for our blockchain applications.

What do you like best about the product?

Useful product, lots of APIs to use, covers most use cases in block chain development

What do you dislike about the product?

Webhook streaming can be slow with custom logic
