Scarf Announces Integration with Common Room

Scarf pioneered usage intelligence for open source

We believe that if open source is part of your business, open source should be a part of your success. Usage analytics, which has historically been taboo in open source, can actually add tremendous value for your project, community, and commercial business. We believe that transparently sharing of usage data aligns with the value of “open” in Open Source, and should be embraced, rather than discouraged.

We are creating a world where users can contribute to any project, just by using it.

As open source community members ourselves, we know privacy is key – which is why Scarf never retains personally identifiable information (PII). Our commitment to responsible data practices are why we are used by some of the largest open source projects and foundations in the world.

“By leveraging analytics, our customers are able to demonstrate the impact of their open source project on their commercial business,"
Avi Press, Founder and CEO, Scarf

Hear it from our customers

Oliver Gould

Co-Founder / CTO Buoyant

Scarf Gateway is the missing admin dashboard for our container hosting, making it easy to understand how quickly new versions of Linkerd are being adopted and which components are being deployed—data that the container registries have and don't share with us otherwise.

Marc Scholten

Founder of Digitally Induced

It’s important for us to understand who is using [our OSS web framework] IHP. Before using Scarf we’ve mostly relied on the data set of existing customers. . . . It only took us a couple of minutes to integrate the Scarf Gateway.

Peer Richelsen

Co-CEO, Chairman

I wish I installed [Scarf] the day we launched our docker file.

Alexander Gallego

Founder & CEO, Redpanda Data

[We have] been using Scarf to understand how Redpanda is being adopted, and most importantly, how to prioritize engineering efforts for the product. Turns out the world loves Redpanda + Kubernetes more than we thought!

Cesar Talledo

Co-Founder of Nestybox (Acquired by Docker)

Scarf proved to be a valuable tool for Nestybox ... It’s one of the few tools that we used weekly and considered critical to better understand Nestybox’s users and potential customers.

Michael Shanks

Co-Founder & CEO at Budibase

The list of companies that surfaced from our data in Scarf was important for fundraising to show real-world usage. Showing that big companies were not only downloading Budibase but downloading every new version we released was huge.
