We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution is stable.""The most valuable features are the easy integration with the Oracle cloud, and that it's easy to use.""Oracle's APIP CS is a platform capable for consistently covering the complete API Lifecycle from design to retirement, supporting an API-first approach.""All API usage is now governed and tracked.""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.""Oracle API Platform Cloud Service's UI is quite user-friendly and supports a hybrid deployment model."

"Code generation is one of the important features of SwaggerHub. We design our API, and we can generate a very rich codebase and add to it. The code generation feature is very valuable.""The scalability is endless.""The tool's most valuable feature is licensing.""It is a stable solution.""The most valuable features are the collaboration between multiple teams and the control and distribution of specifications.""The product's initial setup phase was easy and not at all difficult.""It is quite a useful tool. It is quite good with the validation of the spec. It works quite well in terms of errors and conformity to the OpenAPI standard. It is better than Visual Studio Code in terms of editing.""I rate the solution's stability a ten out of ten."

Cons
"I would like to see enhanced support for SOAP Service and the corresponding WS-Security policies.""The solution's cost in terms of scaling could be better.""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consumers use to access APIs.""Oracle API Platform Cloud Service provides an API documentation tool, which is quite outdated."

"SwaggerHub could be improved with better integration for tools.""SwaggerHub's UI needs to be improved as it looks very old school.""More integration and usability with the cloud microservices would be nice""It has limited functionality...Unfortunately, some of its features are not what we need.""SwaggerHub lacks in terms of integrations. They have APIs integrated, and they also have some connectors, but they don't have integration with many of the things that we use. For example, for connecting with SVN, we had to implement external scripts. So, they should work on the integration because currently, we have to work on the integration with our DevOps, continuous delivery, or continuous deployment. It would be great if these integrations are built-in. Mainly, we would like it to integrate with SVN and Jira.""It could be more intuitive compared to one of its competitors.""We have to use additional tools to test APIs.""The review process should be improved. There seem to be some gaps, at least for us, for the editing part because we would like to have a full request review mechanism. They support some comments, but it is really hard to manage those comments. We would like to use the full request. Therefore, we are now looking to integrate with repositories. It has integration with Bitbucket and GitHub, but we have some internal constraints, and we need to move some of the repositories to GitHub. Our source code is on-premise in Bitbucket, and it was a bit of a problem for us to integrate. Now we are transitioning our repositories to GitHub, and hopefully, we can enable the integration. This will probably solve the problem with the review and approval. Its customization should also be improved. There are limitations around the support for the developer portal. There should be more customization options for the website that you can use as a developer portal. Currently, it has only Swagger UI with minimal customization. You cannot actually add additional pages and documentation for explaining concepts and general things. That's why we have started to look around to see what other tools are doing. They should also allow tagging on the API. We would like to add some tagging on the API to reflect certain things. Currently, any metadata that you would like to have has to be a part of the spec. You cannot do anything else. It should also have support for Open API 3.1, which was released at the beginning of the year. It would be great to be able to switch to that."
