Makes the difficult job of integrations substantially easier.
What do you like best about the product?
The thing I like best about Merge has been the support we've gotten from the team. The product and documentation are definitely good, but it is inevitable to run into challenges with integrations. The customer success team has gone above and beyond in helping us to meet deadlines and the needs of our customers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing I like least about Merge is that I wish they were just focused on Applicant Tracking System integrations. In my role that is the only type of integration we are focused on, and I think the experience could be even better if Merge focused solely on the ATS space. This is definitely a selfish perspective. If we ever aim to integrate with HRIS or CRM, I'm sure we will be happy that Merge has more to offer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Merge gives us a giant headstart when we are looking to add integration support for a new Applicant Tracking System. Instead of starting from scratch and having to digest the documentation of the underlying ATS, we can use the Merge Unified API. The Unified API will probably not work 100% for any new integration, but it still saves you ~70% of the pain. The logging + API Tester + Passthroughs help you to close the gap on the last 30%, and get your integration working.
In cases where understanding of the underlying API has been hard to come by, Merge has stepped in and been a huge help. We've felt fully supported by their team, and I would argue that this has been the most impactful part of our experience.

HRIS integrations; allows our customers to connect their HRIS systems to our product
Great partnership and support!
What do you like best about the product?
The Merge team is amazing to work with and is always there to help with everything from implementation, troubleshooting, and connection support. They're always responsive and helpful! They're also great partners along the integration development process and bring a depth of knowledge regarding the integrations they support.
On the platform side, once we've built support for a few applications in a certian category, we find it's a relatively simple effort to add additional integrations in that category. The ease of implementation here and time saved as a result is great! Our customers frequently use our Merge integrations and have smooth experiences making and using the connections.
I also appreciate the strides they've made with their documentation in the past year, making it easier to understand the nuances of each platform, which is especially useful when building dozens of integrations in a specific category.

Merge is the BEST out there! Game-changing, reliable, easy to use product and CS
What do you like best about the product?
Merge has been a long-running reliable partner to us for several years now. We've been extremely impressed with their product capabilities and ability to strip down the complexity and variability of third party system integrations into one simple to use platform. It's been a pleasure to grow alongside Merge.
Above all, Merge has fantastic customer support, always going above and beyond to solve feature requests, troubleshooting complex problems, and ensuring we are well-supported from every angle. They are hands down the best in class unified API provider, and the product is a pleasure to use for both developers and non-technical folks. You won't find anything else out there that tops Merge!

A Flexible and Powerful Unified API
What do you like best about the product?
Merge is a market leader in the unified API space. Their team has created flexible and powerful infrastructure for connecting data sources, taking the work off Engineers and Users to seamlessly bring together data from disparate systems. Merge's platform is amazing, with a few key characteristics to call out:
Reliability - Merge never fails. Their APIs are foolproof and work consistently for all of our connected customers. When there are issues (which typically are driven by issues on the HRIS side), Merge proactively flags the error so we can workflows operating as usual.
Breadth - Merge has been relentless in expanding the scope of their APIs across HRIS and ATS. I have strong confidence that they will continue to build more APIs and develop partnerships other systems outside of their core.
Support - The Merge team is always willing to hop on a customer call, navigate a tricky integration, or provide helpful support in time of need. Jemma has been our guide through the recent SFTP support and we couldn't be more thankful!
Long-term partnership - Merge recognizes the importance of maintaining a high quality, always-on system that is business critical for most companies. They are our long-term partner through scale and we couldn't recommend them enough!

What do you dislike about the product?
I hope that more HCMs open their walls to Merge to be able to connect data across systems. This is less of a criticism on Merge, but moreso on other ecosystem players who have made it difficult to create high-quality user experiences by limiting data access.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Merge helps us consolidate all employee data for a unified picture of employee compensation history.
Great platform for scaling API integrations with many different providers
What do you like best about the product?
Once you set up an integration with Merge, you can instantly enable all of your customers to have integrations with all of their supported systems. This was a massive unlock for our HR integrations product -- we don't have to build and maintain integrations with each system, and as Merge builds new integrations, providing access to our customers is as easy as flipping a toggle on their dashboard.
Their customer support is quick to respond and deal with any issues that come up. The entire team is a joy to work with!

What do you dislike about the product?
Syncing data from remote systems can take a long time, since Merge aggregates data from the system & we pull from Merge. There's occassionally some issues with data consistency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our customers use a variety of HR systems and we need to pull that data into our system so that our customers can provision user accounts + assign users into the correct locations/departments/reporting hierarchies. Merge integrates with many different HR systems and allows us to integrate with all of them without having to build and maintain several integrations.
Integrations made simple
What do you like best about the product?
Having worked with third party integrations for most of my career, I know full well the pain and cost that comes associated with this type of work. Merge's product removes the majority of this pain.
By offering a unified API, great documentationa, a straightforward implementation and an incredibly responsive suppor team, I'm now to integrate with a plethora of providers with minimal work from my end.

What do you dislike about the product?
A unified API comes with its own set of challenges as it is to be expected, so while Merge caters for 90% of the use cases, sometimes one needs to use the escape hatch and bear the pain of talking to providers directly when something is needed that is not on the usual trodden path.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Merge is providing a unified API for data providers and that means that, from my point of view, integrating new providers takes a minimal amount of work (if any at all).
If you've built integrations in-house, you know the pain...
What do you like best about the product?
First and foremost, Merge saved our startup a ton of money. We had plans to hire 3 full-time engineers to build out integrations with the most popular ATS platforms over 2 quarters, but with Merge one of our existing engineers was able to get us started within a single sprint. It's rare that you find cost-savings and shortened time-to-live in the same vendor.
Secondly, Merge has some of the best customer support in the game. We are certainly not one of their bigger contracts, and yet it feels as though we get year-round, white-glove service. Our technical and support teams can always find someone on the other end of the line to debug issues or plan future work with.
There are very few tools that I recommend in my personal life to friends building companies, but Merge is certainly one of them.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are always issues when managing integrations with third-party platforms, but many times the issues are caused at the source (the downstream services) rather than with Merge. But because Merge is what internal folks see, it's easy for them to get a lot of flak for outages/problems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a recruiting platform, we need our users to be able to manage their candidates in their ATS of choice. Some of our customers are even in the process of migrating from one ATS to another. Merge enables us to provide seamless integration into every ATS on the market which massively expands our pool of potential customers.
