Pros
"The solution is easy to use.""The technical support services are good.""The most beneficial feature for our clients is the easy access to their information, achieved effortlessly through integration.""The SAP Integration Suite can work with different authentication methods. It supports physical authentication, certificate-based integration, and mTLS authentication. This allows customers to choose the best integration approach based on their policies and procedures. Additionally, the suite offers both push and data integration capabilities."

"What I like the most about the solution is that it comes with ready-made tools like handling security tokens and OAuth.""The developer portal is a valuable feature.""Within the new version, webMethods API Gateway gives us an end-to-end lifecycle from the creation of the API up into the development, deployment, and promotion into production/live. The current end-to-end lifecycle of the API gives us enough authority and governance of the API. We know what are currently live services, what is in the testing stage of development, and what version that has been commissioned. So, the full life cycle itself gives us full authority and governance of the API.""It's a good tool, and it has a stable messaging broker.""In the API gateway, there is a new feature that allows us to filter logs within a payload. This has been a useful feature.""There were no complexities involved in the setup phase...The product is able to meet my company's API protection needs.""I like the solution's policies, transformation, mediation, and routing features.""The most valuable aspect of this solution for me has been the configuration-based UI. Once you get the hang of it, it enables you to easily develop an API. In addition, it has many in-built policies that are quite handy."

Cons
"The setup process for the SAP integration Suite is not straightforward. It involves some technical aspects and can be complex.""The product's UI could be faster.""The instances are costly.""They could provide graphical data for over-viewing metrics such as payments, receipts, creditors, and refunds."

"The price has room for improvement.""They should develop clear visibility for the onboarding.""The configuring of the JWT token would be improved as it is a confusing process. We require more information on this part of the solution.""There are things that could be improved with the webMethods API gateway. One thing is that it's too attached to the integration service and we'd like it to be a little bit more independent. We would like for them to separate operations so that it doesn't rely on the bulky integration server and so that it can be used everywhere.""Understanding the overall architecture is difficult.""With performance, there is room for improvement in regards to if we would like to put another extra layer of security on it, such as SSL. This is affecting their performance quite significantly. They need to improve the process of managing the SSL and other things inside their solutions, so there will not be quite such a significant impact to the performance.""It is an expensive solution and not very suitable for smaller businesses.""With respect to the API gateway, the runtime component, the stability after a new release is something that can be improved."

  • "I do see a lack of capabilities inside of the monetization area for them. They have a cloud infrastructure that is pay per use type of a thing. If you already use 1,000 transactions per se, then you can be charged and billed. I see room for improvement there for their side on that particular capability of the monetization."
  • "The price is high and I give it a five out of ten."
  • "The product is very expensive."
  • "This is not a cheap solution but, compared to other products such as those offered by IBM, the pricing is similar."
  • "It is an expensive tool. I rate the product price a nine out of ten, where ten means it is very expensive."

    Overview

    Connect and automate business processes to innovate now with proven pre-built integrations, APIs, connectors, and best practices.

    Once your APIs are “out there,” hackers have a “way in” to your business. Lock that door! Protect your data, applications—even your company’s reputation—with robust API runtime security. The right API gateway will keep out wrong-doers and welcome only authorized consumers.

    With cybercrime costs surging to $2 trillion by 2019, look for the most impermeable API gateway you can find. You’ll need basic security features, like authentication, authorization, digital encryption and digital signatures. You’ll get that with Software AG’s end-to-end API management solution—and another lock on top.

    Our webMethods API Gateway uses reverse invoke, or inside-out, service invocations. This protective technique reduces the need to open holes in your firewall. It’s one more way we help you lock down your APIs—and protect your business from malicious attacks.
