Provides high visibility and control with good traffic monitoring

Analytics is one of the areas needing enhancement, specifically more visibility and control over traffic to improve capacity management and high availability. The replication process between Master and Slave for disaster recovery takes too long. Dependencies on analytics impact the performance of the user interface, which should be separate. The complex setup process on-premises, especially with multi-node installations, could also be improved. Additional control in product declarations, based on operations like POST and GET, is needed.

Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up

We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

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

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

"The features I found most valuable are how the APIs are published, the whole process of finalizing the API, and then controlling it."

"The most valuable features of Apigee for me are analytics, security, ease of use, and integration capabilities."

"The tool is one of the earliest API management products and is good. It reduces the Time To Market aspects of products."

"Apigee provides good documentation."

"The most valuable feature is monetization."

"I like implementing different policies, for example, rate-limiting policy."

More Apigee pros

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"The solution is easy to use and to start with."

"The overall stability and reliability of Coralogix are excellent, and I rarely encounter issues."

"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."

"Numerous data monitoring tools are available, but Coralogix somehow fine-tunes our policies and effectively supports our teams."

"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."

"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."

"The best feature of this solution allows us to correlate logs, metrics and traces."

More Coralogix pros

Cons

"The initial setup is not straightforward, particularly for hybrid solutions."

"We've encountered challenges in leveraging Connect functionality, prompting us to explore additional tools, such as Fergus, to address implementation and security issues."

"Apigee is demanding on the infrastructure so the setup cost is very high for an on-premises deployment."

"Unlike WSA, Apigee does not have a partnership model, something which makes it a bit easier for companies such as ours to go with the former solution."

"GCP is improving the regular version control. There have been some challenges when we talk about the hybrid deployment model. For example, some runtime services' data was available only on the cloud, but financial institutions and other customers have requested more on-site data storage. This is especially important in regions where Google data centers are unavailable, such as certain areas in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East."

"Apigee is costlier compared to other solutions. For government organizations, especially those that do not want cloud-based solutions and prefer on-premise implementations, we recommend WSO2 due to its cost-effectiveness and suitability for private cloud environments."

"The entire user across all the layers should be singly authenticated through an external authentication system."

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

More Apigee cons

"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."

"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."

"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."

"From my experience, Coralogix has horrible Terraform providers."

"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions. The increasing volume of data and the resulting bandwidth charges are concerns."

"The documentation of the tool could be improved"

More Coralogix cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In Latin America, Apigee is expensive. It's not for small businesses; it's more for big businesses."

"Apigee is subject to licensing fees."

"The solution’s pricing could be more competitive."

"Based on your usage of the APIs you can take a decision to go with either an on-cloud or OPDK version. Get in touch with the sales representatives of Apigee."

"It was fairly expensive. I don't know what the standard pricing is. I want to say that it's something like $80,000 for 800 million requests (approximately) a year."

"It is an expensive solution."

"The solution is a bit expensive. It's not for organizations in the early stages of their lifecycle but is more suited for mid- to enterprise-level platforms. Pricing varies by deployment model, with SaaS being the cheapest, costing around $100,000 per year for a subscription. For hybrid and on-prem deployments, the price increases. The on-prem model includes a license and additional installation and configuration professional service costs, which can be at least $40,000 to $60,000 for the initial setup. While it's not cheap, it offers long-term value and can be worthwhile."

"My clients pay for a license."

More Apigee pricing and cost advice

"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."

"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."

"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."

"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."

Overview

Apigee is a platform for developing and managing APIs. Apigee offers an interface for your core services by wrapping them with a proxy layer which is then accessed by other developers. With Apigee, you can design and build APIs and then securely share their services and data without exposing any code.

Because app developers make HTTP requests to an API proxy rather than directly to your services, your services are separated from the developers. All the developer needs to know is the URL of the API proxy endpoint, necessary query parameters, authorization credentials (if they exist), and the response data format.

The API proxy isolates the app developer from your backend service. Therefore, you are free to change the service implementation if the public API remains consistent. By maintaining a consistent frontend API, existing client apps will continue to work regardless of changes on the backend.

Key capabilities of the Apigee API management platform include:

Security: Protect APIs, messages, and backends with configurable policies such as OAuth, API key verification, XML/JSON threat protection, and access control.
API gateway: Secure and mediate the traffic between clients and backends, and between a company’s APIs and the developers who use the APIs.
Developer portal: Attract and engage application developers, enabling them to discover, explore, purchase, and test APIs and register to access and use the APIs.
API console: The console helps developers learn and work with APIs.
API lifecycle management: Manage the process of designing, developing, publishing, deploying, and versioning APIs.
Automated documentation: Automate the development of API documentation and software development kits.
Machine learning: Utilize machine learning and analytics to generate actionable insights and reports.

API monitoring: Apigee offers monitoring tools for API troubleshooting, security, and optimization.

Reviews from Real Users:

Apigee stands out among its competitors for a number of reasons. Several major ones are its rich developer portal, its advanced analytics, and its central monitoring system.

Carlos R., a software architect at Caja Los Andes writes, “The central monitoring feature is the most valuable. It also provides security for the APIs and high availability for our use cases. Apigee is the best product in the industry in comparison to other API management solutions. It helps in fast development, which is a top point. It also supports a lot of industry standards and has excellent documentation.”

An associate vice president at a tech services company notes, “The analytics function and the developer portal are the two valuable features of Apigee. The analytics part is very good, and the developer portal is quite rich in features. The authentication mechanisms are quite easily built into Apigee, which is something that most of the other products have also now started supporting.”
