Find out in this report how the two API Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution is very stable."
"We are able to share those APIs instantly within the organization; even if we want to share it outside publicly, then we can have those capabilities."
"The management of the API and API portal is good."
"It acts as a central gateway for both external APIs and underlying systems. It's basically a central middleware for hosting APIs to the internet and consuming APIs from internal systems. It provides central governance for any APIs going outside the network, ensuring security and a common contract for API definitions."
"Our version supports containerized integration. I can write APIs, which can be moved into a testing environment without needing a forklift. It can check if APIs are compliant before moving them into production."
"The most valuable feature is the security we get from this solution. I know of a bank that uses it to ensure that everything is secure. The second feature I like is the retail environment, where we actually want to be able to provide as many suppliers and consumers with APIs as possible. If you are well-trained in the writing of RESTful API's, you can actually publish an API in a matter of minutes, test it, and publish it."
"API Connect's most valuable feature is its ability to act as a gateway. It's very easy to configure security and everything else in it. You don't have to kill yourself implementing custom configurations."
"The interface is very nice. It makes the solution easy to use and navigate."
"There's hardware, software and application integration, providing hosting flexibility."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's easy to construct new interfaces like apps and client portals."
"The connectivity that the tool provides, along with the functionalities needed for our company's business, are some of the beneficial aspects of the product."
"I like the tool's scalability."
"Oracle's self-service capabilities, of which we make extensive use, is the most valuable feature."
"Our use case is for integration factory for SAP. It is mostly for SAP integration."
"The design time setup has a lot of customizable fields, but we need certain standard fields to be added, such as what all of the consuming systems are. This needs to be very clearly articulated during the design time."
"Due to bugs in integration, we have to look for workaround on fixing and using DataPower as gateway."
"The new version is very unstable."
"Documentation for the CLI is not very complete. Also, the support could be improved, and we have had several problems with backing up and restoring the product."
"In terms of what needs improvement, some of the product documentation could be better."
"The solution is overly complex."
"We've had some issues upgrading to the latest version of the solution."
"There are issues with upgrading in the cloud version. The cloud version is extremely buggy. We prefer to use the on-premise version."
"The products, at the moment, are new and there should perhaps be support for the older version of the protocols."
"webMethods.io Integration's installation is complex. It should also improve integration and connectors."
"The solution's release management feature could be better."
"I am not satisfied with the solution because it takes too much effort to migrate and add new information. The migration could be easier."
"It is difficult to maintain."
"Rules engine processes and BPM processes should be improved."
"The product's stability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
