Highly Recommended.

I like Kong as an API Managemnt tool because I am using for almost 2 years. It is well structured and there are so many plugins which we can use and play with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There us nothing which I dont like about Kong. However the plugins documentation can be improved or It would be good if there is an example using kong Manager.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have everything in one place. It is well serialized. Services -> Routes -> Plugins -> Consumers. At the same time we can multiple plugins and the Kong dashoboard is not so complex. Anyone can be habitual of using Kong in few minutes.

Decent API Management platform

  • August 24, 2022
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Kong Gateway provides various options to configure and run in customer-hosted infrastructure. Kong also provides a lot of ready-to-use artefacts to install and configure the Kong gateway with a few steps. It out of the box offers a lot of plugins (policies) to govern the APIs and also provides the capability to develop our own custom plugins.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Kong community is still evolving and there is little help available in the community to discuss issues. The documentation is also limited over the internet. There are only few trainings available in their LMS and there is no support available if something is wrong with the training steps.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Kong Gateway in hybrid mode with Kong Mesh in our organisation. We are using Kong Mesh for our microservices and this allows us to efficiently communicate with other services without leaving the Mesh network. We use Kong Gateway to govern and protect our API proxies running in Mesh.

What do you like best about the product?
Kong has an incredible UI experience and the accessibility of various plugins and the simple accessibility to various stages makes it more utilitarian when contrasted with other platforms.
What do you dislike about the product?
There aren't many dislikes on my list, but some plugins are only available as an enterprise license, which can be somewhat annoying. I believe it is slightly expensive for smaller teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Kong Plugin, we were able to scale API Products with more confidence and resilience. This way we get more Productive & the performance has increased. Kong API Gateway assists us with dealing with these means in a central point.
