Apigee Reviews

We just started with the solution and are learning about its functionality and use cases right now. It's a requirement in our company that we have a tool of this nature.

There is less CLI needed compared to other options. It's more user-friendly and easier to navigate. 

Everything is working well. We haven't had issues. 

The solution is stable and reliable. 

I don't have any notes for improvement. I don't need any extra features. 

I just began using the solution. 

The solution has been stable. We haven't had issues since we started using it. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

We are using the latest version of the solution. We're new to the product. I'm not sure which deployment we are using. 

I'm a customer and end-user. I'd recommend it to others. So far, using it has been very helpful.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

I use Apigee Edge to develop and maintain proxy services on REST/SOAP web services. I also monitor transactions over Apigee Analytics.

I develop proxy services for other vendors.

Apigee is very fast in transferring requests and responses between Northbound systems to Southbound systems. It has a very efficient logging system which is easy to maintain. 

Apigee Analytics dashboard is useful to monitor transactions, error percentage, transaction latency, etc.

There are many features, which I have felt are very useful and easy to implement at flows.

Below are some of the points that I would like to highlight:

• I like Service Callout, JSON/XML Threat Protection, and JavaScript callout policy. I find them very useful.
• I found Apigee Analytics dashboard very useful for monitoring.
• Private cloud architecture
• Management APIs are very useful, because we can execute them from our server only.

Maintaining and deploying revisions need to be more defined.

It would be better to have access to the PostgreSQL Database Tables on monetization.

We use Apigee an API gateway solution. It can be used in many areas or industries. For example, in Indian, the railway and finance sector, or in Australia, for the Oil Industry.

Apigee is a strong-featured solution. It leads in Gartner Quadrant ratings and it is a full-slated API solution that has the features that an API gateway requires.

I have been using Apigee for approximately three years.

Apigee has been stable.

I have found Apigee to be scalable.

We have more customers using Apigee than other API gateway solutions.

The technical support for Apigee is very good.

There is installation documentation available.

We have standard administrators teams for the deployment. We can also receive support from the Apogee team. If we are unsure of the requirement for deployment, we have one person from Apogee for two months and they will do the job and leave afterward.  

The price of Apigee could be less expensive. The solution can be purchased monthly or annually. 

I would recommend this solution to others, it is a good choice.

I rate Apigee a nine out of ten.

Primarily we do the Apigee implementations for the customer. We are more like a service company. We sell the product and consult with the clients about their needs. There are options for the API gateways and we look at the client's requirements, their budgeting, and then we deliver and install the new solution.  

Apigee makes it nice and easy for the clients and those using the product to access the product's help resources.  

It would help with Apigee if we could make a list of our assets. If the client knows more about all the extensions they can use to work with through the Google cloud and we have an extensions database it would be easier to let them know what is available and we could do more to recommend Apigee for all different kinds of customer needs.  

I have been working with Apigee at this company for the past three years.  

The stability of the product is not an issue.  

We have not had any issues with the product scalability.  

We are actually partners with Google, so we get the best support from them.  

I did have some previous experience with other products in this category before Apigee, like MuleSoft. The main differences between Apigee and MuleSoft are that Apigee is more lightweight and the licensing is also lesser than the MuleSoft. Based on the use case of big clients, the ones who want more services can get them and because the Apigee solution is more lightweight it offers more possibilities for them to use API solutions.  

With Apigee you can bring in some adapters to work with things like business rule engines. So those might create more standardization and help make the investment in Apigee more valuable.  

I tried to do the initial installation and setup a couple of times. It is straight forward and easy. It is just done by calling a couple of CMA (Connection Manager Agent) commands and you can get it up and running.  

What I would recommend for clients who are considering this type of solution depends on the customer's use cases. Since we are Google partners we generally go with Apigee as the solution. But if the client insists that there has to be a lot of orchestration and other integrations need to be done, then we will go with MuleSoft.  

On a scale from one to ten where one is the worst and ten is the best, I would rate Apigee as somewhere around an eight.  

Ease of use during development, deployment, discovery, and usage of Developer portal.

A mature end-to-end model for API distribution and revenue earned through monetization.

One unified solution for different LOBs. Easy interface to monetize and deliver APIs with very easy integration for third-party development environments/delivery.

• Flexible setup
• Pricing and license cost for end-user delivery/ distribution model
• Both on-premise and cloud deployment models are available.
• Highly scalable from any initial topology to horizontal extension.

Technical support model for OPDK should be more exposed and mature in terms of providing support during installation, run, and debug of Apigee in production on OPDK mode.

We use it to build API proxies for securing targeted back-ends with an emphasis on Continuous Integration/Continuous Development (CI/CD).

It has been a potential source of mission-critical customers.

We expect to gain new business opportunities upon providing Apigee services to customers.

• Pragmatic RESTful
• Developer portals
• Continuous Integration/Continuous Development
  
• Tracing tool

I would like them to add features, such as caching and mediation policies.

It is a platform for the publication of API services, access control, limiting the use of resources, and monitoring consumption.

• Identifies services which are most consumed.
• Identifies possible risks.
• Improves productivity.
• Accelerates development and deployment processes.

• Developer portal 
• Apigee Sense
• Analytics
• Microgateway
  

• Predictive analysis of consumption
• Identification of attacks
• Identification of operational errors
  

We use this product for exposing API's to the digital platform and for B2B.

I think it is the most functional tool on the market. The security is a valuable feature. 

Apigee on premise is quite complex and it is always moving faster. I would advise anyone who is interested, to use the SaaS implementation.

I have not encountered instability with the product. 

I do not have experience with tech support.
