"This platform can be highly scalable."
"The administration tool for this solution is good."

"This product is a ten when it comes to API management."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is security."
"We like the portal for documentation a lot."
"The API portal capability is a valuable feature."
"It allows enterprises to expose some of their tech to outside stakeholders."
"API Connect's most valuable feature is its ability to act as a gateway. It's very easy to configure security and everything else in it. You don't have to kill yourself implementing custom configurations."
"Since it runs on top of Datapower, all Datapower based custom policies can be utilized and exported to API connect but its not straightforward/simple process."
"The functionalities on offer are very good."
"Scalable and stable API platform for creating and managing APIs."
"IBM API Connect is a good product, and their technical support is excellent."
"The management of the API and API portal is good."
"It is quite stable. We've not had any problem. It has made for a good buy because we are finding that other companies that have similar set ups go down maybe once a month."
"The portal still has room for improvement."
"Team management capabilities could be improved."
"The areas for enhancement should be improving certain filters within the solution. Although they are generally functional, there are occasional problems that could be more precisely adjusted. Additionally, the solution performs well within its workload limitations, but it may not be suitable for scaling up or managing a larger volume of transactions through the gateway. To address this, it may be necessary to adopt a unique architecture rather than relying on traditional pre-packaged options."
"Areas of improvement include marketing and enhancing the data products area by using ETIs."
"The product shows a lack of maturity. The setup is difficult, the tech support and community are lacking, and it is not very stable."
"The API Mocking tools need to be improved."
"It would be great if they have an asset report. It's hard to get support for that."
"This solution does have some limitations regarding the deployment model."
"The initial setup and installation could be easier."
"In the next version, I don't know if they've already been included it or not, but the designer and all the tools should be on the cloud. I don't want any external installation or local installation."
"The integration of cloud-based services is where we're looking for improvement in this platform."
"The installation process could use improvement. I hope that in the next release, the installation process is easier."
"IBM info-center help documentation also needs improvement. Competitive product like Apigee provide out of the box policies to run Javascript, JAVA and better/flexible logging policies."
"The administration of the user interface and the technical documentation are areas of concern in the solution where improvements are required."
"The implementation process could benefit from improvements, as it may take some time to become accustomed to the deployment."
"Different versions of the same thing can mean unnecessary duplication."
