Sudhanshu Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
We get stability, scalability, and security
Axway provides good documentation that newcomers can easily follow, but I believe the initial setup would be tough for someone new. Experienced employees know where everything is and how to do their job, so it would be difficult for a new hire to get up to speed. For an experienced person, I give the initial setup a ten out of ten. Deployment can be considered a hundred lines of code and some a thousand lines. For a simple deployment, it takes 10-15 seconds. And if the environment connectivity is good enough to respond and there is some heavy code that is being deployed, it takes around 30-60 seconds max, if we are referring to the cloud, where the connectivity for the long duration of the calls is there. The total deployment time is one minute to finish up. From the industrial point of view, Europe has a major chunk of users followed by, the US, and then Australia or the Asia-Pacific region.

Solution simplifies web service testing with impressive speed and accessibility
It is very easy for me to use and I highly prefer it compared to SoapUI and other products for performing its job. It is more handy and faster. It has impacted us very nicely. Postman is used for free by us. I'm not sure if there might be a paid version for multiple users. It is a very good product used for development. It is easy to install, as well as to learn, particularly for new users, even if they are not developers. I taught my business analyst to use it. I just showed them once, and it was easy for them to understand. For example, I gave them the URL and request format and asked them to test independently. They were able to use it on their own and do their testing as well. It was a good experience, especially for generally smart people, like those we usually hire in our company. It is pretty easy to explain, and learning it is not complex.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This platform can be highly scalable."
"The most valuable features are security enforcement and throttling."
"The administration tool for this solution is good."
"There's drag and drop functionality so that you do not need to have a senior expert developer to make use of the tool. You can get more of your staff trained up to be able to use it as it's not overly technical."
"In general, API governance provides a better experience for providers."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is security."
"The best feature of Axway Amplify API Management is its exceptional level of security, which is highly reassuring, coupled with its remarkable capacity to handle substantial volumes of data in impressively efficient turnaround times."
"We like the portal for documentation a lot."
"The environment variables are a valuable feature because I can easily switch them and see all the developments in different cycles and stages."
"I rate Postman as a ten out of ten."
"It is beneficial to have flexibility, especially with API chaining."
"Postman is one of the easiest tools; I have not seen anybody complaining because it's just one Google search away."
"The product is easy to implement."
"Postman helps to write pre-request scripts and make a collection out of each request. You don’t have to spend time writing or copying the requests. The solution lets you integrate multiple environments and their features. Either the tool’s pro or premium version lets you do the merge and pull request for the Git directly."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Postman is scalability. We can scale the collection and for the multiple repositories of the collections."
"It helps me to test APIs independently. It also supports hosting."
 

Cons

"Team management capabilities could be improved."
"The API Mocking tools need to be improved."
"The installation process is a bit complex and it could be a lot simpler."
"The product shows a lack of maturity. The setup is difficult, the tech support and community are lacking, and it is not very stable."
"It would be great if they have an asset report. It's hard to get support for that."
"Areas of improvement include marketing and enhancing the data products area by using ETIs."
"Sometimes we find bugs where certain calls are not returning all the data we need."
"The portal still has room for improvement."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"Something that could be better is the inclusion of another type of test, for example, end-to-end tests."
"We do the implementation of Postman and give support. We had to use two engineers for the implementation, one senior and one junior for the process."
"During the development phase, you will face issues, but once it goes to production, you won't face such issues."
"Postman quality assurance could improve when doing tests."
"I have display issues in my Windows that need to be fixed."
"Initially, the setup is a little bit complex. Whenever a user comes to Postman for the first time, it is just a bit complex since they do not know where to start and what is the structure."
"UI testing needs to be added to the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. When you acquire a license you have full access to the solution, unlike other competitors such as Apigee X, where there are fragmented licenses. Some licenses only allow access to certain features while others allow access to more features. Upon procuring this solution's license, you will have full access to the solution, allowing you to experiment with all of its features."
"The solution has a licensing fee which might be prohibitive."
"Postman is an open-source product. It is free to download from Google."
"We are using the free version that is available."
"We are using its free version."
"The solution has moderate pricing."
"I am using the free option."
"I rate the price of Postman a four out of five."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
