Why Developers Choose SashiDo Over Supabase

These are the most common reasons our customers cite for choosing SashiDo

Mobile-First SDKs

9+ official Parse SDKs including iOS, Android, Unity, IoT devices, and game engines. Parse Server's mobile ecosystem has powered production apps since 2013 with extensive community support.

State-of-the-Art Push Notifications

SashiDo's push notification service guarantees zero dropped notifications, performs exceptionally under high loads, and consumes minimal resources. Native iOS and Android push work out of the box—no third-party services needed. Supabase doesn't offer push notifications.

Document-Based MongoDB

MongoDB's flexible document model is perfect for mobile apps. No schema migrations, easy nested data structures, and natural JSON mapping. Plus full database access for advanced operations.

Simpler for Mobile Apps

Parse Server was built for mobile from day one. Less complexity than SQL queries, no ORM needed, and intuitive object-based data model that mobile developers love.

Expert Support

Get real-human support within 1 business day (often 8-12 hours). No Discord hunting or waiting for community responses—our customer success team knows Parse inside out with engineering escalation when needed.

Proven at Scale

Battle-tested infrastructure powering 700+ companies with 99.8%+ uptime. Parse Server handles billions of mobile requests monthly with automatic scaling and enterprise reliability.

Is Supabase right for you?

Supabase is a fantastic platform with excellent PostgreSQL real-time features and a passionate developer community. However, many mobile developers choose SashiDo for its mobile-first focus, 18+ platform SDKs (Unity, IoT, game engines), built-in push notifications, MongoDB's flexible document model, and Parse Server's proven mobile ecosystem.

Consider SashiDo if you:

Building mobile-first apps with iOS, Android, Unity, or IoT
Need built-in push notifications without third-party services
Prefer MongoDB's document model over SQL for mobile data
Want battle-tested mobile SDKs used since 2013
Need expert Parse Server support, not Discord community
Value proven reliability with 99.8%+ uptime

Trusted by teams shipping mobile, web, and AI experiences worldwide

Common Questions

Can I migrate from Supabase to SashiDo?

Direct migration from Supabase isn't possible since Supabase uses PostgreSQL (relational) while SashiDo uses Parse Server with MongoDB (document-based). However, you can rebuild your app on Parse Server and use our comprehensive documentation and support. Many developers find Parse Server's document-based model simpler than SQL schemas and migrations.

How quickly can I get started?

You can create your first Parse Server app in minutes! Our simple dashboard and clear documentation help you set up authentication, database, cloud functions, and push notifications quickly—no complex configuration needed.

Do I need technical knowledge to use SashiDo?

Basic development knowledge is helpful, but SashiDo is designed to be developer-friendly. Our documentation includes tutorials, code examples, and video guides. Plus, our support team is available to help when you need it.

What if I'm not happy with SashiDo?
