We help organisations connect any partner, system, and data format in a single platform, so they can move beyond simply transporting data and actually make it operational. For more than 20 years, we have been building integration solutions for logistics, retail, and manufacturing. Our platform covers three core areas: Integration (EDI, APIs, cloud apps, legacy systems), Orchestration (automated workflows and processes), and Collaboration (self-service portals for partners and suppliers). With over 90 pre-built connectors, customers can onboard partners in any format or protocol without replacing what already works. What sets Lobster apart is ownership. Our customers stay in full control of their data flows. Their teams configure changes, onboard new partners, and adjust formats themselves, without waiting weeks for consultants or vendor tickets. Built-in AI supports configuration, error analysis, and documentation, so even complex setups remain manageable. Most customers go live within four weeks. Over 1,500 companies worldwide, including HARIBO, HP, Hermes, Tchibo, Schaeffler, DHL, and Lufthansa Cargo, rely on Lobster to keep their supply chains running reliably, securely (ISO certified), and at scale. * * * Product Website Lobster Data Platform Seller [Lobster Data GmbH](https://www.g2.com/sellers/lobster-data-gmbh) Discussions [Lobster Data Platform Community](https://www.g2.com/products/lobster-data-platform/discuss) Languages Supported German, English, French Solution Type All-in-One Show More ## Value at a Glance Averages based on real user reviews. ### Time to Implement 2 months [ View More Pricing Information ](https://www.g2.com/products/lobster-data-platform/pricing) ## Lobster Data Platform Integrations (15) What do users say about integrations?

It feels convenient and user-friendly, and the mapping can be done easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Lobster Data Platform? The link from phase 3 to ASM is not so friendly. It still need enhancement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Lobster Data Platform solving and how is that benefiting you? It helps with data conversion across different formats. The job management is still good, and it includes many tools (e.g., FTP, AS2), which helps me manage them efficiently.

Integration Engineer Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 7/9/2025 "Lobster\_data the future of Data Integration" 4/5 What do you like best about Lobster Data Platform? Lobster\_data is user-friendly and greatly simplifies data integration. You can essentially build your entire business around it, thanks to the wide range of features and functions it offers. It enables users to work with virtually any type of data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Lobster Data Platform? If there's one thing I miss the most, it's the ability to fully customize the web interface. Being able to move tiles around or change logos and icons according to individual preferences would be a great addition, but admittedly, that's complaining on a very high level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Lobster Data Platform solving and how is that benefiting you? Lobster\_data helps us solve multiple integration challenges by providing a centralized platform for handling EDI, API management, and data mapping. It significantly reduces the time and complexity involved in connecting systems and ensures data consistency across platforms. The flexibility and wide range of supported standards allow us to automate processes, eliminate manual interventions, and react quickly to changing business requirements.

We use the solution to electronically network with customers and business partners, for example via EDIFACT. Previously, we relied on external service providers for this, with each new connection representing a medium-sized project. Change requests were particularly cost and time-intensive. In the meantime, we have become flexible in this regard thanks to Lobster\_Data and can continuously expand our connections on our own. The intuitive low-code operation of Lobster\_Data significantly supports us in this. If we ever get stuck, the Lobster support has always been able to help us competently so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Lobster Data Platform? In some places, the help is somewhat outdated or difficult to understand. More practical examples would also be desirable here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Lobster Data Platform solving and how is that benefiting you? Our ERP system only has a few interface functions as standard. We were able to successfully close this gap by introducing and using Lobster. Furthermore, we can now handle various transport options, file types, and formats that we receive from business partners. This allows us to flexibly respond to the individual needs of our partners.

SAP-Basis Administrator Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) 7/2/2025 "Class Middleware with Low-Code/No-Code Approach" 4/5 What do you like best about Lobster Data Platform? One can do a lot by oneself and does not necessarily need a consultant. There are many protocols that can be used: AS2, SFTP, Web-Service, etc... Largely self-explanatory. But definitely book an introduction for the beginning! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Lobster Data Platform? As with many other software, Lobster \_data is also moving to the cloud. We do not yet know if we can/want to follow this path, and we hope that Lobster \_data can continue to be installed on-premise and will continue to receive updates and new features.

The platform offers what you would expect from an ETL platform, but not to the extend of bigger competitors. For smaller businesses / projects it's definately an option to go with Lobster, especially if you need support in German. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Lobster Data Platform? Overall it's nothing special and their pricing models are, let's say, unflexible and the price is above average. If there is something you don't need there is no way you can just turn it off, the cloud infrastructure will keep running without any need and will be paid by the customer and Lobster.
