Apigee Reviews

We use this for intuition with a third party.

It is easy to deploy, configure, and monitor the APA.

The hardware is extremely high compared to other similar products. The entire user across all the layers should be singly authenticated through an external authentication system.

I have been using Apigee for the past four to five years.

It is stable.

It is scalable.

Technical support is available twenty-four hours a day. When it is a critical issue, they come online and support us. They take real-time access to our system and support us in solving the problem. It can take time, but they are able to solve the problem.

Our initial setup and deployment took six months with the help of a partner.

Apigee is easy to deploy, configure and maintain.

I would rate Apigee a nine out of ten.

I mainly use Apigee to allow partner applications to consume services outside their organizations, for security, and for creating API proxies.

Apigee's best features are flexibility and breadth of capabilities.

I've been using Apigee for three to four years.

Apigee is stable.

Apigee's scalability is one of its main advantages.

Apigee's technical support is really good, and they have a community forum where we can ask questions and get help.

We previously used WSO2.

The initial setup for the on-prem solution is a little complex, but the hybrid setup is very easy because detailed steps are provided. The hybrid version takes one or two days to install, but the on-prem version takes a minimum of a week.

For on-premises, a consultant is required to install.

Apigee is a good product, and I would recommend it to others. I would rate Apigee eight out of ten.

Our organization currently has twenty Apigee end-users. We use the solution for API management of financial and e-commerce domains.

Apigee is relatively easy to use for developers.

I have been using Apigee for six years.

Apigee is a stable solution.

The SaaS version of Apigee is quite scalable. The hybrid version is also scalable depending on your requirements.

I am satisfied with the support offered by Apigee.

The initial setup is not straightforward, particularly for hybrid solutions. It is easier to manage the managed services or SaaS-based versions.

The implementation takes time. The production setup includes TLS among other things, and the management and operationalizing take time as well.

We implemented the solution in-house.

Apigee's licensing costs more than other solutions. Some add-on packages are sold separately. For example, monitoring is not included in the standard package of Apigee Edge.

Anyone considering Apigee as a solution should start small and increase usage with experience. Start with a centralized small team and expand based upon the maturity model that Apigee has and recommends. I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

An area for improvement would be to provide more information while troubleshooting. In the next release, Apigee should allow product owners to use its tools instead of just platform engineers.

I've been using Apigee for a year.

Apigee is stable.

Apigee is scalable.

The initial setup was easy - there was an onboarding document with steps that we followed.

I would rate Apigee eight out of ten.

The solution is used for exposing the APIs mainly.

The organization has benefited from the development of fast, new APIs and new integration points.

The usability is one of the best aspects of the product. It's broadly used in different functional areas. There is no specific one. It's used broadly almost in all the contexts that we have.

It's easy to set up.

Technical support is helpful and responsive.

The stability is great.

We started using the solution not so long time, however, it still started from scratch. So far, we have no improvements to note.

The solution could add even more functionalities. 

I've been using the solution for two and a half years. 

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.

We have 20 to 30 people using the solution. 

We've used technical support in the past and they were pretty helpful and responsive. 

We previously used Mashery. We switched as Apigee was working better.

It's easy to set up the solution. It's a SaaS. The deployment can be handled by just one person. It's very simple. 

We did not use an integrator, reseller, or consultant for the deployment.

I'm not sure if we've seen an ROI.

The licensing cost is quite in line with the other solutions. It depends on which perspective you see it. It could be affordable or expensive. It depends on the company. For the big companies maybe it's more affordable, for the smallest ones probably not.

There are packages that you can buy or add-ons that you can add, depending on the usage, depending on what you have to do with it.

We did look at other options, however, this solution was more fitting for the purpose that we had.

We're a customer and an end-user.

I'd advise potential new users to understand if there is a fit as a product like this is pretty much covering the same functionalities as others on the market. There are not so many huge differences. It depends on what you have to do and what your capabilities are and what your vision is. 

If you need more freedom, you can use other things like Kong or other products. Usually, all those products, at least the big players on the market, have the same functionalities. At that point, it's just a matter of questioning if the product is fitting the needs and the purpose that the company has or not. 

New users need to question what they want to achieve and how they want to achieve it, how they're structured if they're working on the cloud or if they're working on-premise. They have to make some questions about the needs, the wishes, and the setup that they want to have.

I'd rate the solution an eight out of ten.

It is easy to use from a developer perspective and a customer perspective. 

It is easy to set up. It is on Google Platform, and there are multiple deployment models they support, which is great.

There should be an integrated continuous integration and continuous deployment approach with Apigee. Currently, for development at a more integrated level, you have set it up yourself.

It lacks the connectors and connectivity. That's something that would be good to have. 

I have been using this solution for 10 years.

I have not faced any stability issues.

Their support is good.

For on-premise, there is complexity, but the cloud version is easy to set up.

Its price is reasonable for the features they provide and the maturity of the platform.

I would rate it a nine out of ten.

Essentially, we have our own product where we have hosted the APIs and Apigee for consumers to consume. We have an airline domain and our own product.

We provide services to our clients, who are end users.

We are experiencing issues with automation; the production in Apigee is quite time-consuming. 

The integration with serviceability also needs improvement. It gives our developers access. We have a developer who can deploy the APIs to the platform. As a result, they are encountering some difficulties in automating those processes. Stability relies on whether those issues can be addressed in any other API gateway.

I'd like to see the automation, time to release, time to market the new APIs, and pushing the APIs from one environment to another, to production, improved in the next release.

It is time-consuming; according to the information I have received, it can take up to two months for any new API to be published for production. I'm not sure what the difficulties are in between, but this is what I'm dealing with in this segment.

While I don't have the hands-on experience, in my opinion, and based on my research, it is not very user-friendly in terms of user experience, or UIUX.

I have been working with Apigee for a few years.

Apigee is quite stable.

The initial setup is complicated. There is a lot involved, and many teams are involved.

When attempting to apply a new host, they are setting up the DNS network, which takes some time.

We already have Apigee in our system, but we're trying to evaluate APM based on the differences between Apigee and APM.

Right now, I don't have any experience with Apigee. The only task I've been assigned is to evaluate the APIM. So far, I've only explored APIM. And all I'm doing is defining the features and differences between Apigee and APM.

I'm still evaluating, but in terms of overall performance and stability, it's quite good. As a result, we have not failed any of the issues in that regard.

For the technical capabilities, I would rate Apigee a seven out of ten.

We have a legacy and non-legacy databases that are both on-premises and off-premises.

Apigee is used to connect to any Google-based applications that are available. In addition, we are experimenting and testing in other environments.

I'm a CIO in consulting.

Apigee has proven to be one of the best of the breed. Others are attempting to innovate and are succeeding. So we don't know how innovations will be distributed, Azure, Amazon. Amazon, without a doubt, is lagging, but I've recently heard in the reinventing that they're working on a lot of API-related innovations. So you can't say that they'll be lagging behind as they are catching up.

We are experiencing some performance issues. Except in terms of performance, we can't find anything that needs improvement. This is something that we are trying to understand, and we will fix it soon.

I'm dealing with the Google and Apigee teams directly, so I can't go into specifics. But I believe we will be able to fix it sooner rather than later. It will be one of the most extensive implementations. And while we did not find any performance issues during testing and development, we did find some in production. We will be in a position to fix it soon.

Our environment consists of multiple clouds. The usual question is whether you have a single environment or a multi-cloud environment. What I've answered is applicable to all multi-cloud scenarios. I haven't specifically mentioned the Apigee-related issues. In CA Cloud, that is Google, I am working in a multi-cloud environment with settings and cross-components.

More platform integration, lower prices, and improved performance are all potential improvements; however, when it comes to standardization, all of them are converging on standardization, but, my criteria are more performance-based.

Either one is focusing on the API or on alternative exchanges that can improve performance. As a result, making a choice of API and the use cases that surround it, as well as how the implementation is done for scale, can be difficult at times. When we talk about the scale, there are definitely a lot of considerations that must be understood, and one of them is performance, which is our primary focus area.

If you are going to use APIs or even exchanges, you should be more concerned with performance.

I have been dealing with Apigee for quite a long time before it was part of Google. It's been approximately three years.

The stability of Apigee is one of the best of the breed.

The scalability of Apigee is good.

Apigee will be implemented in over 100 hospitals.

We have been working closely with technical support, and everything is fine.

We are also collaborating with Amazon teams and some of the standardization committees to help standardize APIs.

The integration of Apigee was straightforward.

It is not an installation, it's an integration. Apigee is integrated rather than installed.

The number of people needed to maintain this solution is determined by the project's, and the complexity of the situation.

Apigee is subject to licensing fees.

Typically, the customer is internal, so it is accounted for in the integrated budgets.

I have other affiliations. Like, I am associated with Cloud Security Alliance, which is a nonprofit organization. And I am also part of ISO SC 38. SC38 has a PWI, a preliminary work initiative on API management. And that goes as the advisory at a global level for a standardization. This topic is not only of my interest, but it is my passion.

I would recommend this solution based on the use case they have.

I would rate Apigee a nine out of ten.
