Love this product Tejas, we'll be using it!

Thanks Chandan, we're hearing this loud and clear. Open to give us feedback on pricing/packaging changes we're working on? If you're willing, can you send me an email at: ilya @segment.com

Thanks for your feedback, "painful" is not what I like to hear. If you're willing, will you send me an email ilya @segment.com, would love to get details.

Hey, just wanted to let you know that we're reading/listening and this is really helpful feedback. I'd love to do a phone call, and get your feedback on a few pricing/packaging changes we're working on. If you're willing, my email is ilya @segment.com

It's okay if you signed up one week ago. Email ilya @segment.com with the details and we'll get something good going!

Hahah, woops we're on it!

Yep, we can get you in :) Apply at segment.com/startups and send me an email: ilya @segment.com. Thanks!

We define startups as new companies with <2 years since founding and <$5M in funding. We have soft limits, and we'd love to hear from you either way.

Hey, wanted to say that I really appreciate the feedback and we're releasing this program exactly to address it. This is Ilya, one of the co-founders of Segment.

Re: how the program works on the backend — For new startups (<2 years, <$5M raised), the Startup Program provides $25k of annual credit (and $50k credit if you're applying thru an accelerator) on the team plan which makes "Segment Free" for 99% of the thousands of startups that use Segment. You can apply for it for multiple years, and after you graduate, we'll provide graduated discounts off our standard plans (50% in year 1). This is designed to be affordable for the entire time that a startup is getting off the ground.

Re: value over time — we see companies of 2+ years of age use an average of 7 source types (web, mobile, crm, stripe, ..) and 8 destination types (google analytics, event analytics tool, data warehouse, email marketing tool, A/B testing tool, ..) accounting for 56 point to point integrations. Each source <> destination connection takes an average of 24 hours to do initial API integration and more beyond to maintain, so hours can add up.

We're also buffering data behind the scenes with Centrifuge when partner APIs have a downtime event to get your data deliverability as high as possible :) (https://segment.com/blog/introducing-centrifuge/)

Either way — this feedback is super helpful, and if you'd like to chat more I'm ilya@ segment.com. Thanks!

Hey, this is Ilya - i'm one of the co-founders and original author of the .NET library - I'm really sorry that happened. In the early days, I was the author of 5 of our open source libraries and also a student of the .NET platform.

Today we have a larger team working on our libraries - .NET in particular has 200+ customers (mostly on our business tier) and we're processing 21B+ API calls/mo originating from .NET. If you could send me an email at [email protected], I'd love to chat live and collect any other feedback you have from the experience. Thanks again for leaving the note.

We used the original Firebase database product to build http://socrates.io/ 3.5 years ago, and I remember getting Socrates running in a few hours. I’m looking forward to seeing them up the bar on speed of development / ease for their next 10 products :) Nice work team!

Hey, Ilya here from Segment. We actually allow for both:

1. Self Hosted - bring your own Postgres/Redshift

2. Segment Managed - we give you a redshift endpoint (on our business tier)

The two options are described here: https://segment.com/blog/introducing-segment-warehouses-reds... and here's where you contact us regarding the hosted redshift: https://segment.com/contact/redshift
