Are there any popular companies/startups using loopback in production? I am asking this because I think this has lots of good features but I don't see much traction around this.

Hi Raja,

Indeed there are.  We haven't put up a customer's page yet because unfortunately many large companies place heavy restrictions on using their trademark including their logos.  That also includes not using your corporate email when posting to this mailing list. 

Here's some general remarks regarding customers using LoopBack in production:
  • there's a healthy split between small startups, medium business and large enterprises using LoopBack - this has been extremely gratifying because we wanted a framework that was easy to use, nimble and agile, but could also scale and meet the more complex needs of the enterprise, it follows our mantra when we launched - "the Node.js framework that grows with you as you grow"
  • surprisingly - many of our early adopters in production have been some of the more conservative companies, this speaks well of Node.js as truly excellent technology that solves specific use cases that companies face
  • here's some quick highlights and brief rundown:
    • we're about to announce that one of the largest domain registrars  and online service providers has become our pre-eminent marquee customer
    • one of the top 5 banks in the world use LoopBack and is currently piloting it to replacing legacy integration software and hardware
    • one of the largest Ecommerce 500 companies use LoopBack as part of their shopping experience
    • one of the top 3 largest media/television networks in the world use LoopBack
    • 2 large US government agencies have multiple deployments of LoopBack in production
    • there are way too many smaller business to re-account, that are not customers under a support subscription but use LoopBack under the open source MIT license

BTW please also check out Raymond's thread asking - "what do you use LoopBack for, for the folks who have already gone to production?" - https://groups.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!topic/loopbackjs/UuwMhIYGDz8.

Anyone else fee free to chime in :)
