"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model."
"Specific to API development, I think Microsoft is still far behind AWS. AWS has grown by leaps and bounds, and Microsoft is a close second. But in terms of features and other stuff they provide, Microsoft's compatibility with publicly available APIs is a little limited. So, that is a little bit of a constraint. But what they provide is good, it's just that they need to build more on their API suite. I think Google is doing a really good job at that."

"The developer console for external users could be improved, especially in the testing site."

"API Management's price could be lower."
"I would like to see enhanced support for SOAP Service and the corresponding WS-Security policies."
"Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated."
"Even when an API is functioning correctly, there seems to be a glitch within OCI (Oracle Cloud Infrastructure)."
"In the next release, I would like to see more security policies and for it to include an on-cloud gateway."
"There should be closer integration between the API Platform Cloud Service and the Identity Cloud Service to allow IDCS Applications, protecting backend systems, to be linked to the API Applications that consumers use to access APIs."
"The solution's cost in terms of scaling could be better."
