Is there a general consensus about which aggregation partner is best if either is available for a given bank?
My unscientific/anecdotal experience of the last month is that Yodlee is more reliable (partly because it can be manually refreshed if it’s not updating).
I’m realizing what a PITA it is to change aggregators midstream (lose balance/transaction history–or at least have to do a bunch of excel manipulation to make it work). So, I’d like to build this right with the best provider from the beginning.
I guess I should also ask…is there an intent to phase out Yodlee (as that would change my thinking too)?
I don’ think there’s any consensus on which aggregator is better. In fact, the answer to your final question might provide some insight into that. Tiller has indicated that it’s plan is to have multiple aggregators, so Yodlee plus Plaid, not Plaid instead of Yodlee. I think that’s precisely because some institutions work better with one or the other, but not both and not always with the same one acting better.
Any idea how you choose Plaid for some institutions and Yodlee for others? Paypal seems to have completely stopped working with Yodlee (while others are working great) - so I’d love to just connect Paypal via Plaid…
