Unified API gateway has reduced tool sprawl and has improved traffic control and observability
I give Gloo Platform a rating of 10 out of 10 because I genuinely appreciate it; it has all the features and requirements that I need. I give it a 10 because it fits my use case perfectly, enabling me to achieve my objectives, and I genuinely appreciate the Gloo Platform community and the people there. Regarding Gloo Platform's AI capabilities, I find them beneficial because they recently added agentic features and many AI capabilities that I find helpful. The accuracy and reliability of Gloo Platform's AI features is mostly consistent, although sometimes it does experience hallucinations. If you need a solution that provides management for your APIs along with features such as rate limiting, mTLS, and other functionalities, I would recommend Gloo Platform; it is truly excellent. I rated this review 10 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You don't need many frameworks or other things to run Glue."
"Gloo Platform's features are optimal for my use case because I have numerous applications and microservices running, requiring rate limiting and traffic management integrated into one platform, which proves very beneficial."
"The Gateways are communicating with a Management Service, which lives in the Cloud, to send usage information or to fetch changes for the deployed APIs."
"The security mode and the deployment process are significant assets, offering simplified deployment and effective troubleshooting options, including Docker support."
"The solution is stable."
"This is part of our new digital offering for customers and has helped with new prospects to offer a modern secure API solution, therefore it is having a real impact on the business adoption of API integration for customers."
"The ease by which you can define policies to manage is impressive."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model."
"I find the customizable dashboards convenient. When you have a privatized dashboard, it's easy to log in, get an immediate snapshot of what's happening, and quickly address any problems."
"All API usage is now governed and tracked."
 

Cons

"I sometimes face issues with integration."
"Even when an API is functioning correctly, there seems to be a glitch within OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated."
"In the next release, I would like to see more security policies and for it to include an on-cloud gateway."
"I would like to see enhanced support for SOAP Service and the corresponding WS-Security policies."
"The challenge is the product is getting new features at rapid pace."
"The solution's cost in terms of scaling could be better."
"The on-premises connectivity can be improved because it is still not at its best."
"In future updates, we might be interested to see more enhancements after exploring the existing features over the next year."
