User Testimonials
	Plaid	Sift Digital Trust & Safety Suite
Likelihood to Recommend	Plaid Plaid is extremely well suited to be your payment API if you're a start-up looking to scale your banking connections fast and securely. Their API is fully functional upon integration. Most end-users have encountered Plaid before so it's a trusted platform for many consumers so even if you're a new app, users feel comfortable connecting their bank through Plaid. Incentivized Sura Hart Program Manager Read full review	Sift Science, Inc We haven't really taken advantages of the full spectrum of what the suite offers, but for the segment that we are using that identifies users across multiple accounts and devices, it performs phenomenally. In the future we'd like to enable auto-banning based on a risk index score that Sift Digital Trust & Safety Suite would contribute to. Incentivized Chris Barretto Engineering Manager Read full review

Cons	Plaid Consumer feedback or troubleshooting typically comes back to us because Plaid doesn't have an easy way of re-routing support once a user encounters a problem. Update timelines could be clearer when they are working on updating a connection with a certain bank. The search functionality for the user to find their bank could be a little more robust.

Alternatives Considered	Plaid No answers on this topic	Sift Science, Inc Sift Digital Trust & Safety Suite provided the easiest integration points plus reliability compared to other vendors we evaluated.
