Understand the projected or expected growth rate, the nature of your API usage, and any industry-specific support available from Tyk or its competitors. Some tools are better suited for certain market sectors. 

Most importantly, focus on the total cost, including anticipated server growth, not just call volume growth.

Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten.

If they are considering an API gateway for a straightforward API gateway case, use case, but if they are considering something more, something that an ESB should support, such as orchestration, transformations, flow management, routing, if those are the capabilities that they are requiring, then it is better to avoid using an API gateway and instead go for a more complex solution, like MuleSoft.

From my experience, I would rate Tyk a six out of ten.

In rating the product overall, I'll give it a seven out of ten.

They could really improve on recognition of their brand name, their marketing and their overall appearance in the market.

Our customers are happy with the features and performance, and I have not heard any complaints with respect to technical support.

Tyk only has a single product, so the length of time between updates is really short. For example, if there is a change in a security specification then they catch up quickly.

Overall, this is a good product but they could improve in terms of stability and performance with new updates that are released.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I would advise organizations to start small with the solution, and ensure that the configuration is complete before beginning implementation.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I will rate this solution a nine out of ten. If they add extensions for back-end development, I will give a rating of ten.
