Apigee Reviews

I use Apigee as it is an API gateway.

The live tracking API feature of the product is Apigee's most valuable component.

I don't see any problems in Apigee where improvements are required.

Apigee is not a solution compatible with public clouds, making it one of its shortcomings where improvements are required.

In the future releases of Apigee, I would like it to offer more cloud compatibility features.

I have been using Apigee for four to five years.

It is a stable solution.

It is a scalable solution.

Apigee's technical support is okay. My company did not have any issues with Apigee's technical support.

I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Positive

I haven't used any other solution before Apigee. My company chose to work with Apigee since it offered an enterprise edition, making it an easy-to-maintain solution with live tracking API features.

The product's initial setup phase was not difficult.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

Apigee is a very good product since my company hasn't faced too many issues with it. The tool allows users to look into the performance metrics, dashboards, and proxy performance, which are some of the positives. On the negative side, Apigee is not a cloud-compatible tool because it serves as an API gateway and a lot of systems are connected to it, which was a bottleneck for our company to deal with since we wanted to move to the cloud.

I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.

The bank embarked on a journey towards open banking solutions, particularly in the realm of online banking and medical services. This initiative prompted the need for a gateway solution, and after careful consideration, the bank chose Apigee as its API management platform. Since then, the collaboration with Apigee has proven beneficial, leading to ongoing improvements and learning experiences for the teams involved.

We find great value in the ability to segregate distinct projects within the system and extract security statistics. Its flexibility allows seamless management of different products, showcasing scalability to handle extensive solutions. Whether dealing with hundreds or thousands of nickel services, this configuration enables us to sustain ongoing work effectively, ensuring real and efficient management of diverse IT projects.

Our focus on improvement primarily revolves around security, differing somewhat from the Connect endpoint. We've encountered challenges in leveraging Connect functionality, prompting us to explore additional tools, such as Fergus, to address implementation and security issues.

I have been working with it for four years.

The stability issue occurred once in a real-life scenario at the bank, causing a downtime of approximately one hour, leaving the entire bank without internet access. This incident was not typical of a bank, and other companies might view it as an isolated event. Occasionally, a service may slow down due to factors like migration, causing disruptions within the timeframe of a timeout.

The system is scalable; however, achieving scalability involves updating numerous properties and parameters. While it is manageable, the learning curve proved significant, and we gained insights through collaboration with a team of three during the development process.

The initial setup is relatively complex. While it may require learning, trial, and understanding, once you reach an advanced level, it becomes a more personalized experience.

The deployment process involves sharing JSON or Slack commands, and the subsequent steps are then taken over by the company from the Apigee, initiating the process from scratch or refreshing it.

Overall, I would rate it seven out of ten.

Apigee is an API gateway used for API management.

The most valuable feature of Apigee is its simplicity of deploying an API and restricting access, like rate limit, with the API.

The technical support could be improved because their response time is slow.

I have been using Apigee for two and a half years.

I rate Apigee an eight out of ten for stability.

Apigee is a pretty scalable solution. Approximately ten developers use Apigee in our organization. The traffic that we have is close to 10,000 API requests a day.

I rate Apigee a nine or ten out of ten for scalability.

The solution's deployment is quick and does not take more than an hour. However, when you face challenges, the support is not very great.

I would recommend Apigee to other users.

Overall, I rate Apigee a nine out of ten.

It is mainly used for business applications.

Some of the essential aspects that organizations consider when selecting a product like ETG, which offers tracing tools, bug tracking, AI capabilities, scalability, and performance-related features, include strong community support. Having a robust community can be invaluable for finding solutions to various problems, especially during migrations and other challenges. Large companies tend to favor such products because of their established user communities and excellent support. While there may be alternative products with advanced API management features, they often fall short in terms of the support they provide, making products like Apigee a preferred choice.               

The product offers numerous features, but our organization primarily utilizes only a few of them. While I focus on the essential features required for my work, I'm aware that there are many other features within the product that I rarely or never use. Therefore, when evaluating the overall performance and capabilities of the product, it's not outstanding. The features we do find valuable work well, but there might be shortcomings in other areas. To provide meaningful feedback or identify weaknesses, I would need to have a comprehensive understanding of how the product supports a diverse range of customers and their experiences. Otherwise, it wouldn't be fair or practical to pinpoint specific issues.

I have been using Apigee for the past four years.

It is a stable product.

It is a scalable product.

I have used other solutions such as WS02 and Westworld API Management.

It is straightforward until and unless there aren’t any custom installations. Dealing with issues can be challenging, especially when custom installations are involved. Problems may arise with components not responding, leading to overall system malfunction. Installation failures, interruptions, and errors are common issues encountered in this context.

Normally it takes one to two hours. But when problems arise, it can take up to one week.

It is an expensive solution.

If you have numerous applications and high traffic, Apigee is a strong choice for its excellent features and outstanding performance. However, if your requirements are minimal and you don't need many features, there are other competitive API management products available. These alternatives can be more cost-effective. If you're looking for an open-source option and don't have critical applications that necessitate specific features, then Apigee is a suitable choice.

I would overall rate it an eight out of ten. 

We use the solution as a platform to integrate different APIs and provide authentication, authorization, and performance security services.
