### "Using Stream for a new social media startup"

January 26, 2023

4.0

The ease of use definitely helped validate our decision to pick Stream as our News Feed provider. Once live, it has worked very well.

Pros

We surveyed a couple of vendors to power the "News Feed" in our social media app. Stream had a set of features that covered the majority of our use cases, and was easy to configure.

Cons

We had some difficulty finding why we were hitting quota limits and incurring overage fees. It would have been helpful if there was some more detail in the provided reporting dashboard
