Hazelcast let us quickly and easily implement the functionalities we need in our mission-critical telecom applications. With its ease of use, it took only five minutes to get productive. We tried the other products in the market but our choice was Hazelcast because it does what it says and performs quite well.

Hazelcast is an integral component to our Resolve process automation platform. It provides a focused solution with simple, easy to understand API without the bloat / unused features commonly found in other competitive commercial solutions. We're happy to support its continual growth and adoption by our customers demanding high availability and resiliency such as global financial institutions, telecommunication carriers and service providers.

Hazelcast forms the foundation for the clustering of our financial messaging solution. With its easy-to-use implementation of clustered lists, maps and queues, it provides all the building blocks we needed to enhance our hub with fail-over and load-balancing features. We've been running load-tests over weeks, processing millions of messages in a clustered environment without any problems. I was also very impressed with the team's professional responsiveness to any issues we encountered during the development process.

We really appreciate using Hazelcast within some of our Java Services e.g. it's used for a very performance critical part of the Activity-Stream that should definitely never fail.
Especially it's easy and intuitive api and setup impressed us. It's one of those products you can use in a distributed environment without hours or days of configuration overhead.
- Fabrizio Schmidt | VZnet

Hazelcast is an incredibly well thought out and executed project. Our team was able to go from knowing nothing about it, to building out proof of concepts that were blazingly fast for some of our clients and several of these are being developed into full-blown applications. We're very excited about what this offers us in flexibility, power, and wonderful support from the Hazelcast team.

If you want performance, a simple API, and excellent support, go for Hazelcast. It is not often you come by tools with this flat learning curve! Our persistence framework is based on Hazelcast, and it is faster than any ORM tool we have tested.

I am using Hazelcast for the implementation of an open source distributed storage system, JStorage. With its ease of use and provided support, Hazelcast is an exceptional product. In very short amount of time, I was able to setup the cluster I needed. Hazelcast support team answered all the questions I had in a reasonable amount of time. It is one of the few products I use with pleasure.

We loved Hazelcast's intuitive API and the fact that it simply worked. From a developer's perspective Hazelcast is an elegant, non-intrusive library. It will not pollute your bootclasspath, it does not drag a bunch of dependencies with itself and it does what it says on the tin. The Hazelcast team are very helpful and quick to respond on any mailing list questions.

Great work, Hazelcast really is a pleasure to use compared to similar toolkits, i've got it running as the distribution technology in Apache Tuscany and Hazelcast made it really easy to do.
- Ant Elder | Apache Tuscany Committer

I was looking for a 'messaging framework' to be able to make my backend application servers communicate and synchronize with each other. I've tested several SDKs unsuccessfully (either not working, too complicated or not designed for my needs) .. and found Hazelcast (great screencast by the way) which simply do what it claims to do, simply and efficiently
- Nicolas Leonard | Co-Founder | A World For Us

A year back I came to know about Hazelcast through wikipedia, I was impressed immediately and it still impresses me every day. The source code is very easy to understand, object graph is not at all complicated. Configuration XML file is also limited and it is optional. I have studied Coherence, GridGain and other similar frameworks for past few years, but Hazelcast is the simplest, and easy to use, it is the BEST. I can say this confidently after going through every line of code of Hazelcast. It is small, simple and does great job.
