“Oban Pro has been an absolute delight. There are so many nice touches in Web for keeping tabs on the queues. As a customer, I feel confident that this vital piece of application infrastructure is actively cared for.”

“We 100% couldn't have put our new, monolithic ETL into production without Oban and Pro. FLAME + Oban is actually a dream. Basically, every time we double down on the BEAM, we win.”

“Oban Pro took our CSV upload processing from serial to parallel in a couple of days. At a point I dreaded, I discovered that the Relay plugin already anticipated my use case. Five minutes later, it's working.”
