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 platform can be highly scalable.""This product is a ten when it comes to API management.""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.""The most valuable features are security enforcement and throttling.""The most valuable feature of the solution is security.""The administration tool for this solution is good."

More Axway AMPLIFY API Management Pros →

"The most valuable feature is the load balancing with the circuit-breaker function.""It is a good product for API management.""You can set up workflows and write limited pieces of logic.""The scalability is very good. That was a key factor in the selection, like how it could be pushed to high volume and scalability, which seemed to be very good.""The portal for developers that this solution provides has great functionality.""The feature I find most valuable is that this solution allows us to manage our security."

Cons
"Sometimes we find bugs where certain calls are not returning all the data we need.""The API Mocking tools need to be improved.""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.""The installation process is a bit complex and it could be a lot simpler.""This solution does have some limitations regarding the deployment model.""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.""The portal still has room for improvement."

More Axway AMPLIFY API Management Cons →

"It is a young product and does not have the kind of brand recognition that would make it a more popular solution with our clients.""In terms of our usage, the main area of concern is that they tend to build enhancements slightly ahead of the considerations for what those enhancements and extensions are. So it could be slightly better communication with the customer base that would be my main issue with them.""We would like a better tool for generating documentation for the APIs to be developed.""I would like to see some additional features like having some extensions for .NET core because we use it for our back-end language.""Sometimes when new features are released, they are not immediately stable.""We ran it for a while, but then we decided to move away from Tyk, because Tyk's cloud version, the SaaS version, has a significant limitation of limited flexibility, so you can't program very much."

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."
  • More Axway AMPLIFY API Management Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The price is low compared to other products of a similar type."
  • "There are different versions and plans available depending on the requirements, so there is flexibility in terms of the pricing."
  • "It had a free version, which suited many of our needs, but not all, but we were happy to go ahead with the licensed version as well, which is the paid version."
  • "We are using the open-source version of this product, so there are no licensing costs for its use."
  • "The cost curve is far smoother, both in terms of volume and the number of calls it's running on, compared to most competitors. So it's a tad more expensive at the very low end, but the curve is nothing like Apigee or some of the others."
