Stackpile
Stackpile is a web-based app that helps you easily integrate third-party software into your existing or new website. Instead of having to learn how to write dozens of lines of code, you can simply use this service to add a single line of code that calls for an off-page function from the Stackpile site.
- Simple Third-Party App Integration
- Multiple Compatible Integrations
- Limited Coding Requirements
- Intuitive Software Tools
- No Clear Negatives
When you first start developing a website from scratch, you'll probably realize that third-party integrations are essentially vital. There are few websites that wouldn't benefit from integrating outside functionality so as to expand the range of available content, and StackPile makes it easy to add as many integrations as you need in a flash. If you were to code each of these integrations on your own by hand, it would amount of hundreds or possibly thousands of lines of complex code. Some of the apps in the StackPile system that can be integrated with the press of a button include Intercom, Heap, AddThis, Castle, Google Analytics, Bugsnag, Errorception, Mixpanel, Sentry, Kissmetrics, and Optimizely. This is just a brief sampling of the full app list available from StackPile. When you select the Basic subscription plan, you'll get access to their Popular app list. The Basic plan also includes up to 10 editable stacks for a single user, and it allows up to 10 apps in a single stack. The Pro subscription plan comes with utility for 10 users, and it allows for limitless stacks and limitless apps within stacks. The Pro plan also comes with access to the full library of apps available through StackPile. No matter which plan you select, you'll get the first month for free, and you won't have to provide a credit card number. Both plans also come with unlimited bandwidth, which means you won't have to pay more when your business starts to grow as a result of the efficacy of the StackPile integration system. When you want to change the apps in one of your stacks, you can do so easily through the software interface. You won't have to make any changes to the code at any point since all of the changes will be made on the StackPile side. This ensures that each integrated app and widget remains up to date and fully functional. New integrations are added all the time, so you can check back to see if any new or exciting apps have been added. If you need to customize the code snip in order to make it fit with your site, the StackPile system is flexible enough to make that happen. If you run various websites, it can be quite useful to have access to multiple stacks. This will allow you to customize each website with the ideal integrations. The ability to edit your stack at any moment is one that should be taken advantage of regularly if you want the most from the software.
