It's a very versatile tool. With the out-of-the-box functionality, we can solve all our data integration issues. It can handle complicated business logic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We mainly use Lobster_data as a data mapper between our ERP and other applications and for EDI. Because we use this in-house, we eliminate a dependency on external parties for data integrations. This enables us to deliver solutions fast and offers flexibility in meeting customer demands, both external and internal. For us this is a very cost effictive solution.

What problems is Lobster Data Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Lobster gives us a single platform that we can use to integrate with all of our customers, that previously we have never had. The amount/range of logic and translation that is possible seems never ending.
