What are alternatives to Parse?

This acquisition just created a better opportunity for a new player. I for one cannot trust Facebook's handling of their data- let alone my apps data.



If you want to control your own data, we are building a synchronizing database for mobile https://github.com/couchbase/mobile

This isn't a full backend as a service, but for data storage we are hoping to hit a good 80% point where folks can use Couchbase Lite and pretty much just rely on their mobile app chops / not have to worry about the backend.

Parse is hands down the best of the bunch, though.


Firebase and Stackmob, to name two. Stackmob even has a big "Migrating from Parse? It's quick and painless..." hero banner on their home page today.
