"The solution is user-friendly."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It is a stable solution."
"Amazon stack is easy to use in combination with other Amazon services, so it was a logical continuity."
"It's easy to integrate and provide support for existing AWS services if I use the AWS API gateway."
"It is good for communicating between the systems and for publishing and subscribing. We can easily retrieve data. It is good in terms of troubleshooting and other things."
"We have found the pricing of the solution to be fair."
"webMethods API Portal is overall very valuable. It is now a comprehensive API catalogue that serves various purposes, including API assessment and evaluation."
"The course management needs improvement. It's always an issue to set up the course management, especially when you use data form."
"Its support for SAM integration could be made more accessible."
"They could include more support tools in the product."
"The only real problem is that you have to know a lot about what is outside of the API gateway in order to make the best use of it."
"Currently, I'm not facing any issues with Amazon API Gateway, which satisfies my requirements. I'm pretty happy with what Amazon API Gateway offers, but as its pricing is on the higher side, that's one area for improvement in the solution. What I'd like to see in the next release of Amazon API Gateway is an improvement in the status checks you get from the monitoring feature of the solution. Currently, you get the number of requests received, the number of reports, etc., but if there are more details than what's given by Amazon API Gateway, that will improve the solution."
"The integration could be improved."
"When working with XML payloads, there can be issues due to the lack of a seamless connection between API Gateway and Lambda functions."
"Monitoring could be improved."
"Some of the things that we use cannot be done in this solution. For these things, we have to either use a Java service or a util service. There is no predefined or existing service that we can use. So, we have to work on the util service and write on top of it. Its price can also be better. It is pretty costly because they charge us for each transmission."
"The on-premises setup can be difficult."
"The improvement needed is related to the model's position. As of now, it seems to be more of a conceptual idea rather than a widely implemented solution. For how long"
