Best tool for API Testing

  • November 13, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use while testing REST APIs. Customizable HTTP API requests and exporting them to multiple programming languages is super convenient while testing. The ability to save our work in workspace and organize them as collections help a lot in replaying or resuming an old testing session. Allows for collaboration between teams with the help of an invite option.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, it is a bit slow to start up at times and it can be frustrating when you are testing a crucial API endpoint. Also, the UI/UX! Scrolling sometimes hide the params in the request and it is not intuitive to realize it actually has those params you configured and impacts productivity.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly, API testing. When you have different microservices running in multiple containers, postman comes in handy to configure the HTTP API endpoints for each of them differently and helps you switch between contexts quickly and efficiently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Top quality API testing. Cant get any better than this!

The world runs on APIs and postman helps build good APIs

  • November 12, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is not an understatement if one said the entire world runs on API also known as application programming interfaces. We are an API vendor and without API testing features, life would be much hard for us. With the advent of reload less single page applications, APIs become mandatory for all software development oriented organizations. Postman is an all in one tool box that helps us take care of API architecture, building, testing, deployment and maintenance. These are my top likes in Postman API management platform

Debugging APIs: Debugging to find and fix bugs on APIs is an arduous task with command line clients like curl, so before we started using postman we used to write complex python scripts with our parameters stored in environment variables, but with postman, we care able to use a nifty GUI to change parameters in a jiffy and make sure our bugs are eradicated and they work as intended

Support for multiple request types: Postman supports all REST api requests like Get, Post, Put and Delete.

Support for multiple response types: Postman also supports the rendering of multiple response types like JSON, XML, HTML and raw text. It can also render the document object model based on the user agent used.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not in a position to dislike anything about postman.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Build and scale APIs from the ground up.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is no real competition to postman, so if you're considering postman, go for it. Many tech giants use Postman and they are not wrong.

Whatever your area is, this application is a must if you deal with certain APIs or connections. Postman certainly helps me to build automated systems, connections and much more.

The application needs me to sign up which is a bit irritating. The cloud functionality is alright but it's seriously frustrating to setup for other people.

Generally automating problems and creating solutions.

Must have tool for api development

  • October 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is a very essential tool for api development in backend. You can customize any input there is to an http request such as params, auth, headers, body, etc. And at the output you can check the response body, cookies and headers. At the body you can even specify an encoding or a raw input and select from JSON, TEXT, HTML, XML even Javascript. It offers a lot of flexibility. You can develop your own workspace or share with a team which all development needs today. I am not sure if it's only a mac feature, but I really like returning back to the sessions I did not even saved on application or OS reboot.
What do you dislike about the product?
I cannot really see anything I dislike from this tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Developing and testing backend API. It is a really flexible tool for development and testing API, I have not tried automated test yet but there is an option to do that too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For backend development, this is the first tool that I recommend, since you don't need to wait for the frontend to actually test your implementation. I also recommend it for testing APIs. It's free to download the app, or you can use the chrome plugin too.

Recommend to all my direct reports

  • October 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is a super useful tool when working with REST APIs. I always recommend my direct reports and teammates use postman when working with APIs. I think its very helpful to get a curl working in postman first and then from there program out your script.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I had to list a complaint I'd say that I dislike the sneaky way they darken the text that lets you skip logging in, so that its hard to notice its an option.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When building out a script or a dataflow that uses a REST API, I find it very useful to have the first step of my process use postman. It helps me identify if a curl fails because of something wrong with my actual script or if it was an issue with the call.

Postman

  • October 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the easy to use interface. The error handling is easy to understand as well, and there are not many areas that mess up as you build out your calls. The ability to create and manage collections is simple, which makes sharing them easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any dislikes about it.
I guess if I would change something, it would be how many defaults are in the headers area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use postman to troubleshoot our API handling within our organization. A lot of our end users rely on our API to pass and manage data within custom integrations, so postman allows us to test calls and make sure things are working properly
