Why engineering teams pick Paragon over Tray
While Tray was built for operations teams stringing together internal automations, Paragon is designed from the ground up for developers building customer-facing, multi-tenant integrations.
Integrations-as-code
Build integrations in code or in a workflow builder
Paragon offers a Typescript Framework that is fully integrated with our visual workflow builder. This combines the benefits of our Embedded iPaaS with the flexibility and control of code.
Version control, code review, and collaborate on integrations
Bi-directionally synced with your git repository
CLI for managing your Paragon project programatically
API Coverage
White-labeled and native to your application
Whereas Tray redirects users to a Tray URL for auth and configuration, Paragon enables you to provide an integration experience that is native to your application.
White-labeled and customizable embedded JavaScript modal
Dynamic field mapping and user settings
Fully customize the UI with our headless SDK
Deployment
A robust deployment process
Don't risk accidentally deploying untested changes to integrations into production on Tray.
Paragon provides a robust release environments pipeline to ensure changes are safely deployed and version controlled.
Separate Development, Staging, and Production environments
Diff that highlights changes between versions
Warnings that highlight potential breaking changes being introduced
Monitoring
Robust monitoring & observability
Don’t settle for Tray's simple task-level logging.
Paragon enables you to stream errors to your team’s observability platform and provides a support dashboard for managing your customers’ integration states.
Support dashboard for integration health
Webhooks for streaming errors to DataDog, Sentry, New Relic, etc.
Task history API to query usage patterns
Hosting options
Enterprise-level security
If you sell to enterprise customers (or even to the government), having Tray host and process their credentials and data will add complexity and concerns around data residency to the sales cycle.
That's why Paragon offers both cloud and self-hosted deployment options, to fit your security requirements.
