"The cloud version of the solution is very easy to set up."
"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."
"This solution has given us a competitive advantage because we have better automation and insight."
"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."

"One of the most important improvements for us would be if it supported the HTTP/3 version and new protocol over a quick connection."
"They should improve the inbuilt policies that they have and that should properly create a deployment architecture as well."
"The licensing tiers can be misleading."
"Performance issues from this platform need to be sorted out."
"I would like to see better scalability and better performance."
"I would like to see more security features become available."
"Understanding the overall architecture is difficult."
"With respect to the API gateway, the runtime component, the stability after a new release is something that can be improved."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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 price has room for improvement."
"It is an expensive solution and not very suitable for smaller businesses."
"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."
