Core Node API

What do you like best about the product?

Great RPC provider! Easy to use, fast, and extremely reliable. Highly recommended.

What do you dislike about the product?

Prices could be more competitive overall. The add-on costs are really high, and some of those features should simply be included in the plan instead of being charged separately.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use QuickNode for my Perp trading. It provides fast, reliable RPC access so I can read on-chain balances quickly and submit transactions with low latency, helping my bot react faster and run more reliably.

What do you like best about the product?

The services offers webhooks for the chains we need support for + RPC endpoints

What do you dislike about the product?

The stream service in particular doesn't seem very reliable. It's feels like something that can break or miss. I would really like a UI like in Privy, where I could see individual filtered entry that wasn't sent and resend it manually,. So far all the info exists at the level of block data and state persists from the block it was stopped, while it would feel much better if instead you had actual filtered webhooks that should have been delievered. Wouid also be perfect to have an ability to resend those individual webhook by clicking a button So far it does what we expected and the support team is really responsive, but product became unreliable as soon as it started adopting AI So far it does what we expected and the support team is really responsive, but product became unreliable as soon as it started adopting AI

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need webhooks for onchain transactions (using streams) and RPC endpoints

What do you like best about the product?

Their support is always there and helpful. The quality of the provided service is higher than the competition.

What do you dislike about the product?

The price is pretty high. Higher than some of the competition.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using their PRC services for mission critical projects.

What do you like best about the product?

The x402 agentic payment and credits, and data quality. User experience is next level

What do you dislike about the product?

It’s quite expensive, although, the value is impressive and the pricing reflects it, but users should be able to pay for what they use.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Quicknode is a solid primary RPC source for my startup up, on-chain intelligence requires quality data and that’s an edge.

I also love the startup programs, shows the platform want growth for early stage startups.

What do you like best about the product?

Streams have been really solid for us. We use them to listen for incoming payments to deposit addresses, and they’ve been reliable and easy to work with. Setup was straightforward and the docs are decent.

What do you dislike about the product?

Not much. Some of the dashboard and pricing around advanced features can take a bit of time to understand, but that’s about it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use QuickNode Streams to monitor blockchain transactions to customer deposit addresses. Instead of running and maintaining our own infrastructure, we receive transaction data reliably and can credit customer deposits much faster with less operational overhead.

What do you like best about the product?

The availability of specific, high-performance RPC endpoints makes development much easier. The infrastructure is incredibly fast, highly reliable, and simplifies integrating with different blockchain ecosystems without any hiccups.

What do you dislike about the product?

here isn't much to dislike, but if I had to pick something, the dashboard UI could sometimes be streamlined to make monitoring specific add-on usage easier. Overall, the performance is solid, so these are just minor details

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing infrastructure scaling was a big challenge for our business as traffic spiked. QuickNode handles the heavy lifting seamlessly, ensuring 100% uptime without requiring us to hire a dedicated DevOps team. It has greatly optimized our infrastructure costs and operational efficiency.

What do you like best about the product?

The support for every RPC network is top notch. Updates to RPC versions, ease of access, simple UI/UX flows. Can always count on them for performance as well.

What do you dislike about the product?

Not really any downsides ... they communicate updates well, downtime is near 0%.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Public RPC's are not reliable. Quicknode provides easy access to RPC with all the knobs you'd ever want. Easy to integrate and they provide agent instructions for LLM's. Pricing is also reasonable.

What do you like best about the product?

It connects to a wide variety of blockchain platforms and provides an API key for each one, which makes downloading data much easier.

What do you dislike about the product?

The UI design makes it difficult for me to pause my node quickly when I’m using the app, so I can’t do it in a timely manner.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

When I downloaded trace information from the blockchain platform, it was free, which is a major advantage compared with other platforms such as BlockSec. On top of that, the download speed was very fast, and the overall performance felt excellent.

What do you like best about the product?

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 the product?

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.

What problems is the product 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.

What do you like best about the product?

Good product for Streams, listening to on-chain events.

What do you dislike about the product?

Recent pricing change made Streams very predatory in terms of pricing, would consider moving away.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We use it for listening to on-chain deposits.
