Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in API Management."The solution is stable."
"t is easy for integrations if it is deployed in AWS Services."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"It allows us to expose our APIs and provides tools for managing them."
"The initial setup is pretty easy. Deployment only takes five minutes."
"The product is really good when it comes to API lifecycle management, and it is not just something that includes the balancing part or the security aspect but also the routing and the fallback mechanism."
"The best thing about Amazon API Gateway is that it can authenticate and authorize requests without going to our back end."
"Amazon API Gateway can integrate with ECS and Lambda."
"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."
"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."
"It would be useful to have a more complete development environment for the developer, with different integrative capabilities to manage all the life cycles for the API. I think the full version formula for that is really useful. They should improve the development environment for easier integration."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Amazon API Gateway can improve the user interface in some areas it could be more polished."
"I am not completely satisfied with Technical Support."
"The integration could be improved."
"Amazon API Gateway is not as complete as Apigee and needs to be improved by adding more features to become a more robust application."
"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 pricing could be improved. In cases where customers require real-time sync or real-time calling groups with IoT, the volume of data and time lag become a concern."
"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"
"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."
