Merge offers a Unified API that simplifies the process of adding hundreds of integrations to a product, circumventing the typical challenges faced with third-party API integration support. Traditional support channels, such as documentation, communities, forums, and customer support, often present difficulties, including outdated or hard-to-navigate documentation, inactive forums, and slow or inaccessible customer service. Merge addresses these issues by providing a comprehensive solution that includes robust integration observability features and a dedicated partner engineering team to monitor and resolve integration problems swiftly. This approach allows teams to build and maintain integrations without relying heavily on external API providers' support mechanisms, ultimately streamlining the integration process and enhancing efficiency.
