Room For Improvement

Postman Enterprise users request improved documentation, UI, integrations, automation, and pricing, while addressing compatibility, speed, and testing challenges.
Snowflake needs better UI, analytics, integration, documentation, governance, AI features, and cost management solutions to address user concerns.
One of the primary challenges with Postman is handling authentication issues, especially relating to tokens and passwords.
Senior developer at Digital world advisory
If they can enhance it to have a database kind of validation like we have in ReadyAPI, it would be better.
Automation Architect at Cognizant
Maybe Postman can be a good contender and replicate some features such as more scripting and control over API calls.
Senior QA Manager at a tech services company with 11-50 employees
Enhancements in user experience for data observability and quality checks would be beneficial, as these tasks currently require SQL coding, which might be challenging for some users.
Data Architect at a tech services company with 10,001+ employees
What things you are going with to ask the support and how we manage the relationship matters a lot.
Asset Builder at Genpact - Headstrong
If more connectors were brought in and more visibility features were added, particularly around cost tracking in the FinOps area, it would be beneficial.

Automated testing optimizes API workflow and collaboration
Since I am using the free tier, one improvement would be to increase the number of requests you can send in a short time period. Currently, if I send 200-300 requests in a short period, Postman Enterprise requires a 30-second wait before sending another bundle of requests unless you upgrade to a higher tier. Secondly, Postman Enterprise sometimes takes several minutes to load the whole workspace. With 2,000-3,000 requests in a workspace, it can take a minute or two to load all requests. When creating a new workspace and moving requests between workspaces, depending on internet speed, it can take a longer period to copy those requests or workspace from one place to another.

We utilize Time Travel with Snowflake because this is a very useful feature. Everyone finds it crucial because in conventional data platforms, it's very difficult to handle these kinds of things. This feature is essential, though I don't have the use cases currently; it is just there for implementation. Regarding Snowflake's automated scaling and suspension features, this auto-scaling is very significant. We had a comparison with Databricks and Snowflake a few months back, and this auto-scaling takes an edge within Snowflake; that's what our observation reflects.
