Stream Pricing Overview

I really like how Stream provides a powerful, developer-friendly API for building chat and activity feed features quickly. The documentation is clear, SDKs are well-structured, and the integration process feels smooth. It saves a huge amount of development time compared to building real-time chat or feed systems from scratch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There isn’t much to complain about, though the pricing may seem somewhat steep for smaller projects or startups, particularly as user numbers grow. Some of the more advanced customization features also demand a solid grasp of the SDKs, which might be difficult for those just starting out. Furthermore, a handful of features would benefit from additional examples or tutorials to help make the onboarding process quicker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This product delivers on its promises. The API is thoughtfully organized, and the documentation is sufficiently clear, making integration a straightforward process. You can set up a working feed system quickly, avoiding the hassle of building one from scratch. It has proven to be reliable and maintains good performance during typical usage.

The pricing is far higher than what seems reasonable for most use cases. As your user base expands, the costs increase at an unreasonable rate. It gives the impression that the platform is designed primarily for enterprises unconcerned with budget limitations. The dashboard is quite basic, the analytics offer little value, and after the initial months, the overall value simply doesn't match the price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
