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

"I don't believe the Salesforce has been fully utilized yet. It gives us quick engagement."
"The API portal capability is a valuable feature."
"This product is a ten when it comes to API management."
"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."
"This platform can be highly scalable."
"We like the portal for documentation a lot."
"In general, API governance provides a better experience for providers."
"The most valuable features are security enforcement and throttling."
"Postman is easy to use and enables us to test all possible API testing scenarios."
"The initial setup of this solution is straightforward. Postman can be used as an extension in Google Chrome for those who do not wish to install it directly. Deployment took an hour and a half."
"We use it for REST API testing. Feature-wise, it is pretty lightweight. It is pretty fast, and we don't have to do a lot of things. We can just simply go and post our endpoint, and it gives different kinds of authorizations. We usually use authentication 2.0, which is the most common industry practice. So, it has the support for authorization through 2.0."
"This solution offers a free version."
"Postman helps us to automate the API testing in the team."
"The data you are sending and fetching from that endpoint is very clean and understandable; anyone can understand it."
"I like that it is very easy to use. I also like the automation feature."
"It is stable and reliable."
 

Cons

"It would be great if they have an asset report. It's hard to get support for that."
"The installation process is a bit complex and it could be a lot simpler."
"The areas for enhancement should be improving certain filters within the solution. Although they are generally functional, there are occasional problems that could be more precisely adjusted. Additionally, the solution performs well within its workload limitations, but it may not be suitable for scaling up or managing a larger volume of transactions through the gateway. To address this, it may be necessary to adopt a unique architecture rather than relying on traditional pre-packaged options."
"In terms of customer service, the company needs to be easier to contact, and the support team needs to understand the situation and the product itself better."
"Team management capabilities could be improved."
"Sometimes we find bugs where certain calls are not returning all the data we need."
"The portal still has room for improvement."
"The API Mocking tools need to be improved."
"The main improvement needed is better integration with test management and other tools to allow a common dashboard for all testing metrics and details."
"The management of endpoints' headers sometimes conflicts with APIs that require information in the body, leading to difficulties."
"The solution has some user interface difficulties when conducting environment collections."
"One thing which Postman needs to improve is the documentation. The documentation of Postman is not that great when compared to other tools."
"An area that needs some improvement would be to allow multiple windows with different collections to be open at the same time."
"The performance needs to be improved."
"Postman needs to improve its support for a lot of integrations."
"There needs to be more flexibility surrounding the testing of SOAP APIs."
 

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 moderate pricing."
"This solution offers a free version."
"I use the tool's free version."
"This is an open source solution."
"The solution's price is reasonable."
"I rate the price of Postman a four out of five."
"The solution is free for individuals, but for companies that use it across the organization, you have to pay per user."
"Postman is an open-source product. It is free to download from Google."
