Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used Supabase to get a backend up quickly for multiple different full-stack projects in development, and continued using Supabase in production. It gave us a way to have lots of features out of the box for a postgresql database, and scalability was clear.

Pros

  • Getting up and running quickly and cheaply
  • Edge functions
  • Flexibility with login options
  • Data GUI
  • Settings GUI

Cons

  • The policies preventing turning off a server are nonsense
  • On a lower pricing tier, reaching a usage limit can prevent setting modification to go back under that usage limit
  • It's still in beta, so use in production can be problematic at times

Likelihood to Recommend

Supabase can be used for strong custom backends for games and full-stack web applications. Self-hosting is not as great of an option just yet, and Supabase is still being developed actively so there are still legitimate problems that can be encountered, but this project seems to be going in a positive direction and has been useful for us.
