Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Google, Amazon Web Services (AWS) and others in API Management."It's easy to use compared to other products. It's easy to set up."
"This solution is very flexible, and it's very compatible with the other Azure products."
"Microsoft Azure API Management is better because it has a DevOps integration by default."
"Without a doubt, it has a very robust, strong marketplace where we can directly integrate with existing APIs and begin working on those."
"The price is pretty reasonable for us."
"The integration with Azure Active Directory is a good security feature for authentication and authorization. There is multifactor authentication. You can also use all of the Azure AD features integrated with API Management."
"I like the support they provide for the APIs more than the solution itself. First of all, documentation-wise, both Microsoft Azure and even Google Cloud are up there. But in comparison, the real-time consulting and support for APIs make Microsoft stand out a little. I also like the performance. Standard public cloud provider-built APIs are more resilient and flexible in terms of what feature you want to use and what feature you don't want to use, and they're more customizable. They are more resilient in terms of performance in that particular environment because that is the design aspect of the offering. When public clouds build APIs and deploy them after testing them on their framework for a certain amount of time, I feel there is a massive difference in the product's performance. On the interface, everything is strong."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft Azure API Management are the easy configuration and deployment with automation."
"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."
"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"Azure is our most expensive resource; it's costly."
"Sometimes when immediate support is required, it isn't available."
"Other products have more customization options."
"Maybe the customization could be a bit better."
"Microsoft Azure API Management is lagging behind Apigee and should also have a better CICD process."
"API Management's price could be lower."
"They're trying to implement versioning and trying to be able to manage different versions of your API all at the same time, but they're not doing that just quite right yet."
"The portal where we publish the APIs could be improved. Maybe this is because we didn't configure it. It is quite easy to bypass API management because we have a lot of information shared on the portal, where we publish our APIs. I worry there is potential for a security breach in the API publishing. There needs to be more security available on terms of the way we publish them."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
