Embedded iPaaS
Orchestrate automations in code or low-code
Beyond Sync and Actions primitives, empower both your product and engineering team to build integration logic on Paragon's Workflow engine, while adhering to your existing software development lifecycle with Paragon's low-code and Typescript based frameworks.
Merge is just an API, which means your team still needs to orchestrate the integration logic, build in error-handling, and build the infrastructure to support concurrency.
Paragon provides a serverless workflow engine so your team can easily implementing the business logic, either in code (Paragraph) or with a visual workflow builder, without worrying about the plumbing.
Version control, code review, and collaborate on integrations
Bi-directionally synced with your git repository
CLI for managing your Paragon project programatically
Embedded UX
Pre-built UX for field mapping and user configurations
Nango provides an embedded auth flow, but your team has to build all the UI and logic for user-specific logic like field mapping.
Paragon provides out-of-the-box UI components and a headless SDK so you can easily surface end-user settings to your customers.
Monitoring
Empower everyone on your team to debug customer issues
While both platforms provide robust observability features like event logs and log forwarding, Paragon provides a Users dashboard that makes it easy for your support/CX team to debug and fix customer errors.
Build without tradeoffs
Paragon provides purpose-built products to implement every use case, from real-time synchronous actions to fully managed ingestion pipelines.
Fully managed ingestion pipelines
Ingest full replicas of your customers’ external data, without any of the plumbing. Perfect for AI applications and structured data ingestion use cases.
Normalized schema per category
Historical and incremental syncs
Fully managed 3rd-party pipelines
