Amazon API Gateway Reviews

We use Amazon API Gateway to compliment or to put a security facade on top of your current APIs.

It's flexible. It was valuable.

We have not yet explored all of the capabilities. We are looking for a developer portal that may or may not be included, we are not sure.

The integration could be improved.

I have been using Amazon API Gateway for three months. We are using it for a project but it is not in production yet.

There are no issues with the stability of the Amazon API Gateway.

Amazon API Gateway is a scalable solution.

We have integrated into probably eight different areas. We have high volumes. We probably process over 100,000 contracts a day through it.

Amazon has provided us with a dedicated technical advisor. We haven't had any issues with technical support. We're very pleased with it.

There was a bit of a learning curve because we scripted it, but after that it was fine.

We completed the installation ourselves.

Fees are volume-based.

For our current volume, the price is fine, it is what we would expect.

It is doing what we need at this point, there isn't anything extra that we would want.

I would recommend this solution to others who are interested in using it.

I would rate Amazon API Gateway a seven out of ten.

I use this solution for mobile app development. It is the API gateway for my backend.

The most valuable feature is the ease of managing the gateway.

This solution is useful for making new APIs. We deploy with CloudFormation, so it's pretty easy to use.

The way they manage the headers could be improved and made easier.

There are some certificates that they will not let us use.

I would like to see the web console improved.

There should be more videos and documentation about the new features that are released every month.

This solution is very stable.

It is a scalable solution. We have ten users in my team who service approximately five thousand people through our apps, and we are increasing the usage every day.

We have a solution architect from AWS and he is working with us. The support from Amazon is great. On a scale of one to five, I would rate technical support a five.

We did not use another cloud solution prior to this one. However, we did use an on-premises API gateway from CA Technologies. It is a very capable solution, but it is more expensive and we also had to maintain it ourselves. It is not a managed service like the API gateway from AWS.

The initial setup of this solution is very easy. It only takes a few minutes.

This solution is a managed service, so we don't need to be concerned with maintenance. AWS does the management and scaling for us. It's serverless.

I took care of the deployment myself.

We have seen ROI. It's pay-per-use, so you won't lose any money.

This is a pay-per-use service, where you only pay for what you use.

We had our on-premises solution, and we also evaluated Apigee from Google. Ultimately, we felt that AWS, for our use case, was the best option. The main reasons are the ease of use and pricing.

My advice to anybody who is implementing this solution is to first read the documentation and follow the steps. Make a use case, create a proof of concept, and then migrate it to production environments. It's pretty easy to use.

This is a good product, but there is always room for improvement.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

The solution is user-friendly. 

The course management needs improvement. It's always an issue to set up the course management, especially when you use data form. We use a lot of TerraForm scripts to build up our environment. The rest is pretty straightforward and pretty easy to use.

I have experience with Amazon API Gateway.

The scalability is good. There are one hundred thousand users using it in our company. I rate the overall solution a ten out of ten. 

The initial setup is not easy as it includes a lot of steps. 

Overall, the solution is a nine out of ten. 

We're using Amazon API Gateway for API management.

What I like best about Amazon API Gateway is that it's simple to use, easy to set up, and you can quickly get it up and running. It's a very user-friendly solution.

I also didn't experience any issues in terms of Amazon API Gateway interface, integration, or monitoring. The solution runs smoothly.

Currently, I'm not facing any issues with Amazon API Gateway, which satisfies my requirements. I'm pretty happy with what Amazon API Gateway offers, but as its pricing is on the higher side, that's one area for improvement in the solution.

What I'd like to see in the next release of Amazon API Gateway is an improvement in the status checks you get from the monitoring feature of the solution. Currently, you get the number of requests received, the number of reports, etc., but if there are more details than what's given by Amazon API Gateway, that will improve the solution.

I've been using Amazon API Gateway for around a year.

Amazon API Gateway is a very stable solution.

Amazon API Gateway is a scalable solution.

Support for Amazon API Gateway is quite good. The support team is knowledgeable. I interacted with the support team only once, as it's a pretty stable solution, so I don't need much support, but the interaction I had with the team was professional.

On a scale of one to five, I'd rate overall support for Amazon API Gateway as four.

The initial setup for Amazon API Gateway was easy. I would rate it as five on a scale of one to five.

Amazon API Gateway has various pricing plans, but I cannot give the exact cost, though I can say that it's expensive. On a scale of one to five, I'd rate the pricing for Amazon API Gateway as two, as the solution is one of the most expensive products in the market for API management.

My company has around three to four team members who use Amazon API Gateway, but the solution is also being used by many clients who connect to it and consume APIs.

Amazon API Gateway is being used daily.

I advise anyone looking into using Amazon API Gateway to go ahead and use the solution. Still, you should consider your load requirements and what you're looking for in a solution before making that decision.

My rating for Amazon API Gateway is nine out of ten.

I'm a customer of Amazon API Gateway.

We use it for normal API purposes.

Its security feature is the most valuable because it is mainly a security solution. It has easy authentication and authorization, and its integration is also useful.

The user interface, in general, can be better. The user interface for the entire Amazon cloud can be more friendly. There are some scenarios that are not really easy to manage and configure through the user interface.

I have been using this solution for more or less one year.

Its stability is great.

It is very scalable because it is in the cloud. We might have around ten thousand users of this solution. The client for whom we deployed this solution is using this solution and won't be changing it or increasing its usage in the near future.

I haven't really used technical support. Its documentation is really good and complete. There are a lot of things on the website that you can use.

We didn't have a different solution. 

It is ready to be used because it is in the cloud. It is very straightforward to set it up with some support. The deployment duration depends on the number of services, but generally, it takes around two hours.

We used an in-house resource. In terms of maintenance, we have a team that supervises not only this product but also other products. I think the product itself doesn't require much monitoring or maintenance. It is really managed by the cloud.

We didn't evaluate other options because our environment is in Amazon, so it didn't make sense to use another solution.

This is a good solution for anyone whose strategy is to run entirely on Amazon. You basically have to use another approach if that's not the case. If you have a hybrid cloud or if you are trying to be independent of the cloud, this is not a good solution for you. 

I would rate Amazon API Gateway an eight out of ten. It is a complete solution.

We use the solution to protect APIs from malicious attacks.

The solution's performance and scalability could be better than Azure.

We have been using the solution for two years.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

Comparatively, Azure is better than AWS in terms of performance and scalability.

The solution's initial setup process is straightforward.

The solution's price is reasonable.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

We primarily use this solution for exposing internal data sources to the internet.

The ability to proxy has been the most valuable feature.

The pricing could be better. Also, possibly better technical support services or possibly just more documentation to assist users.

The scalability is very good. We plan to slowly increase usage. We have a number of things we need to do with it. It won't grow substantially, but maybe to double what we've done so far.

Like most Amazon services, and this one's the same, you're expected to effectively do your own support, and any other support is by emails, so it's quite limited.

We didn't previously use a different solution.

The initial setup is pretty easy. Deployment only takes five minutes.

We are an integrator, so we did the implementation ourselves.

We've not yet directly seen any ROI, but we weren't expecting to.

The pricing can always get better, but it's pretty reasonable and it's a pay as you go model.

We evaluated Dell Boomi and we looked at Informatica.

The user interface is easy enough to use. I don't really have any complaints about it. In terms of advice for implementing and using, I would say you should make sure you've got good internal skills.

I would rate this solution 8 out of 10.

We use an API from Amazon to assess our internal services in our VPC and to limit the access of certain users to API and to have an execution plan. Certain users have certain access to API calls that they could use to give them an assessed quota.

The solution is deployed on a private cloud.

Amazon stack is easy to use in combination with other Amazon services, so it was a logical continuity. We use Amazon Lambda, so using Amazon API Gateway is the logical continuity of the same step. It wouldn't be very practical to use technology from Azure because we are already using Amazon.

The user interface could be improved, as well as customer support and having a local customer representative in a country. Monitoring could also be improved a bit.

I have been using this solution for one year.

The solution is stable so far.

It is scalable.

I haven't had a case where I needed to talk to a local representative, but as an overall problem for sales, that is something that could be improved.

We usually find answers on the internet or through other materials.

The solution was easy to set up. I did the setup by myself.

I am satisfied with the price.

We evaluated other options like Microsoft. They are very similar, but because of our customers, they insist on using Amazon.

I would rate this solution 8 out of 10.

If you get used to a certain technology, you would definitely recommend it to your customer because you have experience. We recommend this technology to our customers because we are using it for other products and we have experience, and then the core learning or integration course is shorter.
