We performed a comparison between Microsoft Azure API Management and TIBCO Cloud API Management based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 initial setup is not that complex, but there are certain challenges."
"The solution is reliable and very stable."
"I have found this solution to be easy to configure, simple to use, and flexible."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use and it is a platform that has self-enablement for the customers to be able to register themselves."
"There were no scalability issues."
"I like API Management's sandbox feature. It's an environment where you can test out the API before putting it into production and connecting it to a live environment."
"The most valuable features are the API and integrations."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the integration of CI/CD with the API gateway."
"The solution is a good general API manager. They have a few propriety features but are offering items that are standard in the industry as well."
"The reason why we selected the solution originally was because of its ability to have a gateway both on-premise and in the cloud. This is the most valuable aspect of the solution for us."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to have different packages based on the API keys. The same core system can have different packages based on different environments."
"The platform's most valuable features are its capabilities to support security measures such as tokenization, token refresh, throttling, and enforcement of payloads."
"This has provided a new stream of traffic and exposure of our catalogue beyond the normal web store offering."
"The most valuable aspect of Mashery is its stability."
"When we did the product evaluation, we saw that TIBCO Mashery offers end-to-end API life cycle management. It provides all API features that are required for managing the complete life cycle. It includes the developer portal and tools for API monitorization. The out-of-box security features that TIBCO Mashery provides are enterprise-grade, which gives it an edge over other API products."
"It is easy to work with ."
"In the next release, Azure APIM should include deployment in various environments and CI/CD for deployment."
"Some of the DevOps stuff could be easier to work with. The migration paths are a little complicated, and moving code around could be more seamless. There should be less manual migration when several teams work together to publish code to the DevOps."
"Performance issues from this platform need to be sorted out."
"I would like to see more security features become available."
"One of the most important improvements for us would be if it supported the HTTP/3 version and new protocol over a quick connection."
"Azure is our most expensive resource; it's costly."
"The solution's integration suite needs improvement."
"Specific to API development, I think Microsoft is still far behind AWS. AWS has grown by leaps and bounds, and Microsoft is a close second. But in terms of features and other stuff they provide, Microsoft's compatibility with publicly available APIs is a little limited. So, that is a little bit of a constraint. But what they provide is good, it's just that they need to build more on their API suite. I think Google is doing a really good job at that."
"The security needs improvement, specifically, propagation of security to an API. Calling other APIs is something that is missing in the product and that makes us think about going to a competitor."
"It lacks many features at the API gateway compared to other solutions."
"Policy management has been a bit of a concern."
"Monetization is not that great in API management. You need customization. Improvements are needed with sandbox local as well as with monetization. Those features are missing."
"The way agile life cycle is working needs improvement. I also want to see more support for open API standards. I want to see some improvement on the protocol transformation. That is quite missing now. These are the three main issues."
"They can fix some stability issues and probably make it more user-friendly so that not only an IT savvy person but an end-user can also easily navigate through this solution."
"I'd like to see TIBCO integrate authentication and security features into Mashery."
"TIBCO Cloud API Management should improve its installation and make it easy."
