"The product is easy to implement."
"The interface and the different types of API methods you can use are the most valuable aspects of this solution."

"Postman allows you to incorporate and export the test cases we create. It enables me to share the test cases with my colleagues, so I don't have to copy them into an Excel sheet. Postman lets me export the dataset and share it with my team. They can use my test case for their testing."
"It's user-friendly. Anybody can learn it within five to seven minutes."
"It allowed us to understand the working and performance of the APIs."
"The UI could be more attractive."
"It could be more secure because security is always a problem."
"The product must improve its security features."
"An area that needs some improvement would be to allow multiple windows with different collections to be open at the same time."
"Could be more user friendly."
"Postman could be improved by providing options for performance testing of APIs."
"I have display issues in my Windows that need to be fixed."
"One area that could be better is collection management."
"Testing API is pretty straightforward in Postman, but it falls short when testing web services. For example, when we test web services, there is a visual component that we can import in SoapUI but not in Postman."
"I have recently noticed that, for some reason, I am not able to import collections in JSON. It is weird because I was able to do it before. When you create a new collection and documentation, in tests, you usually have to click Save. If you don't click Save, your collections don't sync with other devices, which is something I don't like. It is not clear for the users in a shared workspace, and I usually forget to click Save and end up losing all the collections that I created. I create a lot of routes, and clicking Save all the time isn't efficient. Instead of clicking Save all the time, there should be an option to save everything in one go."
"Postman is a bit more of a complex tool, making it an area where improvements can be made."
