## GetBlock Reviews
  ### 1. Need of Improvement to make reliable system

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dionel F. | Staff Assistant, Telecommunications, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2024

**What do you like best about GetBlock?**

GetBlock unable to simplifies the process of integrating technology. It has been a time saver, for me. Has made the whole process much smoother. The customer support team is also not responsive and quick to resolve any issues that may arise. The pricing for the nodes is not  affordable.

**What do you dislike about GetBlock?**

There is room for improvement is in their indexing infrastructure to ensure access to data. Accessing EOA ( Owned Account) data is sometimes be Consume a lot of time and resources using their current method. I believe there is a need for features that increase integration capabilities well. There are areas where reliability and functionality need to improve.

**What problems is GetBlock solving and how is that benefiting you?**

GetBlock is not capable to solve of accessing EOA data through its API integration solution. It is unable to solve customers issues. This process is too much time taking. Customers are not satisfied with these services.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kristof V. | Support Staff Specialist, Chemicals, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 05, 2023

**What do you like best about GetBlock?**

GetBlock complicated the process of integrating technology making it difficult for developers to navigate. The pricing for nodes needs to be more budget friendly. I have come across many issues.

**What do you dislike about GetBlock?**

There are a few areas where I feel it falls short. The platform features seem limited. I expected more integration options tailored to developers needs. The dedicated nodes package is not as suitable for every project due to its cost.

**What problems is GetBlock solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There is room for improvement in the platforms indexing infrastructure to ensure more reliable access, to data. As a business owner myself one of the problems I encountered was accessing EOA data. It provides a poor method, for accessing EOA data, which consumes my time and resources.

  ### 3. Guarantee High Uptime And Consistent Access To Blockchain Nodes

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anjali S. | Cloud Consultant, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 15, 2023

Cost optimization is possible with the pay-as-you-go model because we only pay for the resources that we really utilize.

Although it makes blockchain integration simpler, novice developers may still have a steep learning curve when it comes to grasping the nuances of interfacing with blockchain nodes.

**What problems is GetBlock solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes it simple to integrate with many blockchains, developers can concentrate on creating their applications rather than managing infrastructure. It can be used to create cryptocurrency wallets that need synchronized blockchains and real-time transaction data. Before releasing their contracts to the live network, developers can validate their contracts' dependability and functionality by accessing actual blockchain data. Overall, it provides a complete solution for connecting to blockchain nodes, offering a number of advantages such as broad blockchain support, simple integration, scalability, reliability, and affordability.
