"Useful solana infrastructure for building onchain analytics products"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Quicknode?

What I like most about QuickNode is the Solana-specific data it exposes beyond basic RPC access, especially around priority fees.

I built PumpTerminal, a tool for analyzing fresh pump.fun mints, and being able to show real priority-fee conditions along with scoped network congestion makes the product much more useful for users. QuickNode’s priority-fee data helped me turn something that’s usually invisible into a clear, user-facing product feature.

I also work on Intelleum, an MEV intelligence layer on Solana, so I care a lot about execution conditions, congestion, and transaction behavior. Access to actionable fee signals is far more valuable to me than a generic endpoint, because it lets me build analytics that explain what’s happening on-chain and why it matters to users.

What do you dislike about Quicknode?

There’s nothing major that I dislike, but QuickNode offers a lot of different options for Solana developers, and it can take time to figure out which one is the best fit for a specific product.

For instance, if you’re building around live transaction activity, token monitoring, or onchain analytics, you may need to choose between standard subscriptions, Streams, gRPC, and additional APIs. Having more practical, end-to-end examples that compare these approaches in the context of real Solana products would make that decision process much easier.

Overall, this feels more like an opportunity to improve onboarding for advanced use cases than an issue with the platform itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Quicknode solving and how is that benefiting you?

Solana products often need to handle a high volume of onchain activity and turn raw transaction data into something users can actually understand and act on.

I build products like Intelleum, which focuses on MEV intelligence and execution behaviour, and PumpTerminal, which helps users analyse fresh token launches and broader market activity. For products like these, dependable access to Solana data matters because the value comes from spotting patterns quickly and surfacing signals that are genuinely useful to users.

QuickNode lets me spend more time on transaction analysis, monitoring logic, and product features, rather than the operational work of maintaining blockchain infrastructure. As a result, it’s easier for me to build, iterate, and ship data-driven Solana products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
