Centralized research workspace has streamlined GPU access and simplified remote collaboration
The best features Coder offers include easy integration into a remote environment that is accessible from everywhere, VS Code integrations, and AI integrations. The AI integrations I mentioned include various ways people access AI, such as using Cursor and Claude with various models. We have fairly extensive licensing as we are a biologics company, so the integration with Anthropic's Life Sciences has been wonderful as well as the integration with cloud workflow. Coder has positively impacted my organization by providing a central place for people to run their research and enabling us as administrators to focus on one aspect of researcher interactions with our clusters, so we do not have to provide much education or options for integrating their workflows into our clusters.

Centralized collaboration has transformed API testing and documentation across multiple teams
In terms of improvement, the UI can sometimes feel heavy for larger collections in the workspaces. Additionally, performance may slow down with complex API projects, and pricing can be expensive for smaller teams. However, it is quite suitable for bigger teams. Other areas for improvement include better reporting and analytics dashboards, and more advanced native test environment features could enhance workflow, with smoother offline support and sync handling. Additionally, better performance for very large collections would be helpful, along with more intuitive navigation for enterprise-scale workspaces, stronger reporting analytics, easier management of permissions across large teams, and more flexible automation and testing report options would be beneficial. Small usability and performance improvements would make Postman Enterprise even more efficient for larger organizations. Postman Enterprise needs better performance optimization for large enterprises, more detailed analytics user reporting, improved API governance and audit visibility, simpler permissions and access control management, faster sync and loading times for larger collections, and more advanced built-in testing and reporting capabilities.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Coder is very stable and incredibly reliable."
"Coder is a strong solution for developers who want a consistent cloud-based and repeatable development environment."
"This product deserves an eight out of ten."
"I rate Postman as a ten out of ten."
"The solution has a great user interface and collection of features."
"The API testing features are valuable."
"When it comes to anything API related, I would recommend this solution."
"It is a very stable solution."
"Postman is better than SoapUI when it comes to usability."
"Postman offers great features, so I get a better opportunity to run bulk tasks through single command lines and single APIs, and we have an internal Postman AI tool, which helps improvise the code and analyze the quality if you find any errors."
 

Cons

"Coder can be improved by making setup easier for users who are not very experienced with infrastructure or Terraform style."
"Postman needs more advanced data-driven testing."
"Integration should be improved with our continuation system because we use Azure DevOps separately."
"I would like to have a code snippet where I can write a code and for the responses of the endpoints to be validated using my custom business conditions."
"When you try to code something and put it in the code, it's not useful."
"I have not seen much use of Postman Enterprise for API governance capabilities in maintaining compliance and consistency within my organization up until now."
"I have recently noticed that, for some reason, I am not able to import collections in JSON. It is weird because I was able to do it before. When you create a new collection and documentation, in tests, you usually have to click Save. If you don't click Save, your collections don't sync with other devices, which is something I don't like. It is not clear for the users in a shared workspace, and I usually forget to click Save and end up losing all the collections that I created. I create a lot of routes, and clicking Save all the time isn't efficient. Instead of clicking Save all the time, there should be an option to save everything in one go."
"There is no support for the testing of the SOAP APIs."
"Could be more user friendly."
