Ripple Reviews, Ratings & Features 2026 | Gartner Peer Insights

Blockchain platforms are emerging platforms and, at this point, nearly indistinguishable in some cases from core blockchain technology. They are being used for generalized distributed value exchange, consisting of an expanding list of cryptographically signed, irrevocable transactional records shared by all participants in a network. Each record contains a time stamp and reference links to previous transactions. It is a decentralized state transition machine that manages the life cycle of digitalized assets and immutably records operations in a distributed ledger. A digitalized asset can be any object with explicit or implicit value (such as digital currencies, securities, precious metals, commodities, materials, identity, credentials, patient health records).

Blockchain Platforms

Ripple

Software Developer

Ripple Network is a network that has been developed to provide quick and secure transactions to banks, especially by using blockchain technology. I can say that it left other competitors behind in speed. However, it does not fully meet the actual blockchain system. The fact that functions are old for programming prevents the creation of intelligent contracts.

Ripple is a great tool for the secure and fast transactions specially for the banking purpose. We are using it from a long time. It implements VPN that sometimes delay's the transaction. Other than done it is good to go with this payment way. 

SENIOR SOFTWARE ENGINEER

Ripple is great for fast and cheap international payments. It takes a few seconds to complete and are also faster than some traditional bank transactions. Only limitation is that it does not offer a platform to write smart contracts and deploy to develop decentralized applications.
