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 solid, robust, and scalable."
"The initial setup is pretty easy. Deployment only takes five minutes."
"In terms of most valuable features, it would say that it is really easy to start working with it."
"All information and data needs to be sanitized before it enters a private domain and we use this solution to do this."
"This solution is useful for making new APIs."
"t is easy for integrations if it is deployed in AWS Services."
"It's flexible. It was valuable."
"The technical support is very strong. We've had issues with the solution and configuration and we got very good support."
"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."
"It's a good tool, and it has a stable messaging broker."
"The cloud version of the solution is very easy to set up."
"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."
"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."
"What I like the most about the solution is that it comes with ready-made tools like handling security tokens and OAuth."
"They could include more support tools in the product."
"Its performance and scalability could be better compared to one of its competitors."
"I believe that there could be more features associated with analytics since it is an area where the product lacks."
"The integration could be improved."
"I am not completely satisfied with Technical Support."
"It would be useful to have a more complete development environment for the developer, with different integrative capabilities to manage all the life cycles for the API. I think the full version formula for that is really useful. They should improve the development environment for easier integration."
"Amazon API Gateway is not as complete as Apigee and needs to be improved by adding more features to become a more robust application."
"The only real problem is that you have to know a lot about what is outside of the API gateway in order to make the best use of it."
"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."
"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."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"With respect to the API gateway, the runtime component, the stability after a new release is something that can be improved."
"In terms of improvements, maybe on the API monetization side, having users able to create separate consumption plans and throttle all those consumption plans towards the run time could be better."
"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."
"The price has room for improvement."
"It is an expensive solution and not very suitable for smaller businesses."
