Sagor Rana - PeerSpot reviewer
Front End Engineer at Upwork
Efficiently filters API data though experiences slower performance with larger projects
I would like to see better performance in larger projects. When dealing with large amounts of data, it can become slow, causing users to potentially abandon the application. Improving performance and ensuring the app runs smoothly would enhance user experience. Stability issues, where it sometimes breaks down, need to be addressed as well.
TS
API Integration Engineer at Airbnb
Automated testing optimizes API workflow and collaboration
Since I am using the free tier, one improvement would be to increase the number of requests you can send in a short time period. Currently, if I send 200-300 requests in a short period, Postman Enterprise requires a 30-second wait before sending another bundle of requests unless you upgrade to a higher tier. Secondly, Postman Enterprise sometimes takes several minutes to load the whole workspace. With 2,000-3,000 requests in a workspace, it can take a minute or two to load all requests. When creating a new workspace and moving requests between workspaces, depending on internet speed, it can take a longer period to copy those requests or workspace from one place to another.

"The most valuable features of Apollo GraphOS OS for me are its security and authentication processes."
"Simple to use and you can easily store your projects."
"It's easy to see different versions of responses."
"Postman is useful for API testing."
"It is a stable solution."
"We can test APIs. We know if they are functional or throwing any errors."
"It is nice to have different workspaces. You have your personal workspace, and then you have a team workspace. In general, I like its UI. It is quite cool."
"What is most valuable for me is that we can create and share collections between the team members."
"Postman is easy to use and enables us to test all possible API testing scenarios."
 

Cons

"Apollo GraphOS OS is using a detailed project, and it can be time-consuming because it has a lot of data to manage."
"There’s room for improvement in schema collaboration tools, especially in large teams where multiple developers are working on overlapping parts of the API."
"Apollo GraphOS OS is using a detailed project, and it can be time-consuming because it has a lot of data to manage. It sometimes takes longer than three seconds, which can affect loading times and lead to user dissatisfaction. I would like to see improved performance."
"Reporting can be better. If you have bigger APIs, it takes time."
"The main improvement needed is better integration with test management and other tools to allow a common dashboard for all testing metrics and details."
"The management of endpoints' headers sometimes conflicts with APIs that require information in the body, leading to difficulties."
"There needs to be more flexibility surrounding the testing of SOAP APIs."
"Postman could be improved by providing options for performance testing of APIs."
"Something that could be better is the inclusion of another type of test, for example, end-to-end tests."
"The product lacks a good console."
"We have previously used Tosca which allowed us to verify information using authentications. It would be useful if this was also possible using Postman. In a future release, Postman should connect to DB."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Postman is a free service."
"The solution has a licensing fee which might be prohibitive."
"We use the open-source version. They introduced a new licensing model where your company must subscribe to their services if you're using it for business purposes. However, I think they charge too much if you're only using the basic features. It limits what your organization can do if you're not a paying customer."
"We do not pay any money for Postman."
"This is an open source solution."
"This tool is open-source and free to download and use."
"It is free."
"The solution is free for individuals, but for companies that use it across the organization, you have to pay per user."
