Featured Reviews

Dinesh Agrawalla - PeerSpot reviewer
Requires minimal configuration and easy-to-launch
I would like to improve the restrictions and security elements of the solution, as there are certain configurations that are not currently supported. There are certain restrictions that cannot be implemented without web access. In the next release, I would like a feature that can validate requests and filter out any jQuery injections. Additionally, I would like to prioritize these requests. I've noticed that such features are usually not available in web applications.
Sagar SampadMall - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides robust security for financial transactions and protects the ERP database from direct exposure
My main feedback is about the account management. I feel they should connect with clients more frequently, beyond just selling the product. They should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products. My main suggestion is focused solely on the account management approach, specifically fostering closer and more proactive client relationships. So, the pricing could also be bit improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Amazon stack is easy to use in combination with other Amazon services, so it was a logical continuity."
"The product is stable."
"All information and data needs to be sanitized before it enters a private domain and we use this solution to do this."
"It is very helpful, with our API-based applications."
"The solution is solid, robust, and scalable."
"From my perspective of ease of use, it is very good."
"API Gateway offers a multitude of configuration parameters that enable versatile request filtering and protection against potential attacks."
"What I like best about Amazon API Gateway is that it's simple to use, easy to set up, and you can quickly get it up and running. It's a very user-friendly solution. I also didn't experience any issues in terms of Amazon API Gateway interface, integration, or monitoring. The solution runs smoothly."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."
"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."
 

Cons

"The integration could be improved."
"API Gateway lacks some governance features that MuleSoft offers, and there are additional features that could make it even better."
"API Gateway could improve by allowing debugging capabilities, particularly when dealing with high volumes. At scale, it is expensive, and latency sometimes occurs."
"We faced a few issues with the documentation."
"An interface more friendly for new users would be helpful."
"If I take into consideration the past three to four years, during which I used the tool, I would say that some missing and external configurations were not possible in the product, and it was a bit difficult to manage."
"The product's high price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The course management needs improvement. It's always an issue to set up the course management, especially when you use data form."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"AWS charges for data ingress and egress, which could be further reduced. This would be helpful for customers dealing with large amounts of data coming in or going out from their systems."
"Since it's a serverless solution, Amazon API Gateway is not so expensive."
"It's cost-effective, even as our workload and the number of APIs we manage have increased."
"My understanding is that it easily goes to $14,000 or $15,000 USD each month for each account, and we have several such accounts."
"Amazon API Gateway is a very cheaply priced product."
"The product is expensive."
"Amazon API Gateway has various pricing plans, but I cannot give the exact cost, though I can say that it's expensive. On a scale of one to five, I'd rate the pricing for Amazon API Gateway as two, as the solution is one of the most expensive products in the market for API management."
"The product is a little expensive."
"Oracle is not a cheap solution and it is not affordable for all of our clients in Portugal."
