Hey ProductHunt, and thank you so much for hunting us, Michael! We’re excited to be launching Convoy. Convoy is an open-source webhooks gateway. Webhooks continue to be hard at scale and large teams require a consistent tooling for inbound & outbound webhooks. Convoy enables developers to securely send, receive and manage millions of webhooks reliably with features like retries, rate limiting, circuit breaking, customer-facing webhook logs, zero downtime secrets rotation and more. Since our initial launch, we’ve learned a lot about our users and made several important improvements we are excited to share: - We are now a webhooks gateway! akin to API Gateways that sit at the edge of your network to receive all API traffic and route them to the respective microservice, webhooks gateways sit at the edge of your network to receive webhooks from any backend service and route to client endpoints as well as ingest events from multiple providers and route them to the required backend services. - We now have first-class integration with Pub/Sub Systems. Our users wanted increased deliverability guarantees. Your backend services write events to a queue/topic etc. Convoy consumes the queues, creates webhook events, and dispatches those reliably to client endpoints. We currently support Amazon SQS and Google PubSub. On our roadmap, we have the following planned - Kafka, RabbitMQ & Nats (In that order) - We switched our backend store to PostgreSQL. This improves the self-hosted experience tremendously. MongoDB was great for storing schemaless data, but was severely lacking in some important features for our users, e.g. transactions don’t work on a single node; you need to bootstrap a replica set; also, we wanted to ship updates frequently, but the lack of migrations for schema & data changes slowed us down. - We decided to go the open-core route of OSS monetisation because it offered us a good balance to serve our community and make enough money to run the company. Like GitLab, we hope to be good stewards of our community edition. Since our enterprise edition is simply a wrapper around the community edition with enterprisey features like RBAC, Audit Logs etc. we are properly incentivised to continue making it excellent. - Our Cloud platform is in private alpha stage. Please reach out to us at founders @ [getconvoy.io](http://getconvoy.io/) to gain access! Our mission is to serve hobby developers all the way to the most ambitious teams on the planet with a consistent and easy-to-use webhooks gateway for asynchronous communication on the internet. We welcome you to try it out today using our getting started at [https://github.com/frain-dev/con... and give us feedback today. Bonus: We are offering you a 20% discount on all enterprise edition purchases this period (ending 7th of April 2023) reach out to us in the Convoy Community. :)

We currently manage all our outgoing webhook notifications with convoy. Convoy dashboard or portal is a game changer - it has reduced our customer support time by allowing our clients to debug their webhook issues themselves.

We needed a web-hook solution at Wafi. I figured instead of building one from scratch we could just look for an open-source tool we could use. Convoy has proven to be an excellent product, solving a niche problem. The support team has been quick to resolve issues and the product team has been attentive to user feedback.

Looks awesome — what do you think is the hardest part about dealing with webhooks? At my old company, we struggling with testing them in different environments: dev, staging, production.

We used to have the issue of debugging webhook related problems from our logs which was a very tedious process and it wasn't efficient too, convoy changed this for us. With convoy we can easily visualize our incoming webhooks, search through the webhooks and resend a webhook to our server, all from a dashboard. This has given our support engineers superpowers and has minimized the effort required to reconcile webhooks related issues. Convoy also makes it easy to send out webhooks to our clients and also resend it as the case may arise at the click of a button. Convoy pays a lot of attention to issues raised by the convoy community, updates are shipped often to ensure we enjoy the best experience and they provide prompt support to resolving issues.

Cardiff Networks has established itself as a leading provider of customized technology solutions for the Banking, Telecom, Media & SME sectors in East Africa, with plans to expand to the rest of Africa. Our focus is on developing scalable, reliable, and resource-efficient enterprise-grade solutions, building on the expertise of giants like Convoy. Cardiff Networks has been an early adopter of microservices architecture in order to achieve the scalability and flexibility required for our solutions. However, before discovering Convoy, we faced challenges in ensuring the seamless operation of webhooks at scale. Writing custom event workers to be deployed as sidecars alongside the actual services proved to be a time-consuming process. Convoy, with its powerful features and capabilities, has enabled Cardiff Networks to achieve better stability and reliability for our distributed infrastructure. Thanks to Convoy, Cardiff Networks can now process approximately 5-6 million events per day on one of our moderately busy clusters, without any unnecessary complexities or hoops to jump through. Overall, Cardiff Networks highly recommends Convoy as an invaluable tool for organizations seeking to achieve maximum efficiency and scalability for their microservices architecture. Convoy has been a game-changer for Cardiff Networks and has significantly enhanced the quality of our technology solutions.

We’ve been using Convoy for close to a year now at Bloc, and I have to say it's been a lifesaver. One of the key benefits of Convoy is that it has reduced our support workload significantly. With Convoy, we can easily track and manage our webhook events, which has made it much easier to troubleshoot any issues that arise. Plus, the platform's user-friendly interface has made it easy for our team to understand and use, saving us a lot of time and effort. Another key benefit of Convoy is that it has increased our webhook delivery rates. This is critical for our business, as we rely heavily on webhook events to power many of our key processes. With Convoy, we've been able to ensure that these events are reliably delivered, which has had a huge impact on our productivity and bottom line. Overall, I can't recommend Convoy enough. It's a wonderful tool that we'll be sticking with for a long time. If you're looking for a reliable, user-friendly platform to manage your webhook events, I highly recommend giving Convoy a try.

As someone who has been building webhook products for the last 7 years, it’s awesome to see a product like Convoy come onto the market and make it easier for people to deal with webhooks. So excited to see where the Convoy team takes this over time!

Congrats on the launch

Sounds super interesting. Congrats on the launch!

Webhooks is a must for any SAAS tool being developed. Very cool to see it being democratized

We've been using Convoy for managing our outgoing webhook notifications at Payourse and it's a lifesaver! Their dashboard is amazing - it's made a huge difference in cutting down our customer support time since our clients can now troubleshoot their own webhook problems. I'd totally suggest giving it a try. Plus, you'll find that the integration process is pretty smooth, and the documentation is really clear, which is super helpful.

Looks fantastic!! Will try it out for Lago for sure!

Before finding convoy, Debugging webhook related issues was usually a pain, Finding convoy was a blessing for us as we could get a visual of all the webhook events we deliver, Also filter them by date, status and user also. We can also search by payload we send which is super convenient for debugging purposes. Convoy handles deliveries for us, attempts retries on failures so we Don't have to worry about writing those logic ourselves. We can also go on the user interface and still retry ourselves if we want to or batch retry a bunch of payloads which is also super convenient. They also have a portal link feature where your users can see all the events you send to them and can also retry themselves which is also super useful as your users can also debug issues themselves without having to contact you. Support team is also very helpful when you have issues integrating or things that need resolved It is just a great tool overall with real value and i will 100 percent recommend to anyone delivering webhooks to their users.

Congratulations team Convoy for your launch. Convoy appears to be a powerful tool for managing webhooks and integrating them into modern applications and workflows. Its open-source nature and flexible architecture make it a popular choice for developers who need a reliable and scalable solution for webhook delivery.

This sounds like a great tool for startups that need to manage a lot of webhooks!

Congratulations on your product launch ! 🥳🥳
