"Easy interface to monetize and deliver APIs with very easy integration for third-party development environments/delivery."
"It is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of Apigee is its simplicity of deploying an API and restricting access, like rate limit, with the API."
"The most valuable features of Apigee for me are analytics, security, ease of use, and integration capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is monetization."
"The security that you have with Apigee is very good and aligns with compliance."
"One of the features that I like is Object Recognition. It worked very well, and it allowed me to create a dynamic expert based on my requirements."
"Katalon Studio's biggest advantage is its price. It's a good tool for the price, albeit with some limitations when you compare it with tools like Tricentis Tosca."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is the ease of use of the solution."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is visual testing. It compares the look and feel of an application which is useful."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is that everything can be managed from one platform."
"The most important feature is the Jenkins integration; it is pretty straight forward and allows us to run nightly builds."
"The tool is easy to use. The product gives me the flexibility to use Selenium. I can also use my Java capabilities in the solution."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."
"The cost of the solution is quite high."
"Drag and drop of features would be more beneficial, rather than manually working on the configuration and updates."
"Apigee could do more to make users aware of what is available in the add-ons."
"The entire user across all the layers should be singly authenticated through an external authentication system."
"One feature they have to invest time into is the developer portal they use."
"Since it is based on various open sourced projects, we might have to depend on the fixes provided by those components rather than Apigee directly fixing the issues."
"We are experiencing some performance issues."
"The pricing for the product was a bit higher. I also found it challenging to manage sometimes."
"The solution can be further improved with better loading time."
"There could potentially be more reporting within the solution. We need more issue reports, for example."
"The tool's maintenance is very difficult since they do not follow call by value or call by reference. Due to this, any change happening is not reflected throughout all the test cases. There are some issues with data parameterization as well."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"We have had some issues when it comes to stability, which is something that needs to be improved."
"During parallel execution, some reports are randomly switched."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"Katalon Studio could improve having visual testing, but I think they're launching that feature very soon. We would like to see an increase in the usage of AI."
