"It accelerates development and deployment processes."
"Lifecycle management."
"The initial setup isn't too complex."
"The tool is one of the earliest API management products and is good. It reduces the Time To Market aspects of products."
"The most preferable aspect would be the elimination of the command, which was a significant improvement. In the past, it was a challenge, but now we can proceed smoothly with the implementation of our policies and everything is managed through JCP. It's still among the positive aspects, and it's a valuable feature."
"Cloud Pak for Integration is definitely scalable. That is the most important criteria."
"It is a stable solution."
"The most valuable aspect of the Cloud Pak, in general, is the flexibility that you have to use the product."

"The entire user across all the layers should be singly authenticated through an external authentication system."
"I would like them to add features, such as caching and mediation policies."
"Unlike WSA, Apigee does not have a partnership model, something which makes it a bit easier for companies such as ours to go with the former solution."
"Apigee does not have a testing feature."
"The solution’s scalability could be improved."
"The initial setup is not straightforward, particularly for hybrid solutions."
"The initial setup is not easy."
"Setting up Cloud Pak for Integration is relatively complex. It's not as easy because it has not yet been fully integrated. You still have some products that are still not containerized, so you still have to run them on a dedicated VM."
"Its queuing and messaging features need improvement."
"The pricing can be improved."
