Key features
-

-
Developer-focused: RudderStack is built API-first. It integrates seamlessly with the tools that the developers already use and love.

-
Privacy and Security: You can collect and store your customer data without sending everything to a third-party vendor. With RudderStack, you get fine-grained control over what data to forward to which analytical tool.
-
Unlimited Events: Event volume-based pricing of most of the commercial systems is broken. With RudderStack Open Source, you can collect as much data as possible without worrying about overrunning your event budgets.
-
Segment API-compatible: RudderStack is fully compatible with the Segment API. So you don't need to change your app if you are using Segment; just integrate the RudderStack SDKs into your app and your events will keep flowing to the destinations (including data warehouses) as before.
-
Production-ready: Companies like Mattermost, IFTTT, Torpedo, Grofers, 1mg, Nana, OnceHub, and dozens of large companies use RudderStack for collecting their events.
-
Seamless Integration: RudderStack currently supports integration with over 90 popular tool and warehouse destinations.
-
User-specified Transformation: RudderStack offers a powerful JavaScript-based event transformation framework which lets you enhance or transform your event data by combining it with your other internal data. Furthermore, as RudderStack runs inside your cloud or on-premise environment, you can easily access your production data to join with the event data.
