Good automation and analytics, but is costly
The report model was our main concern. I believe currently the solution uses a third party for the reporting. As part of a consulting firm, one of the challenges we face is the difficulty in producing reports that meet the expectations of our clients and customers. It would be beneficial if the focus could be shifted toward improving the reporting aspect. The impact report is a crucial aspect, as we only have one opportunity to create it. Galvanize HighBond can improve by generating more impact reports post-project, and allowing access to the reports using a web version, which would greatly benefit us. The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement.

Secure tunnels have transformed how my team tests webhooks and shares live development demos
The biggest friction point I faced with ngrok was the limitation on the free plan and the occasional need to manage sessions or URLs again. For very heavy use, the advanced capabilities are very useful, but some of them feel quite restricted unless you are on a paid tier. ngrok works very well, but the main frustration is when you need the same tunnel setup repeatedly or want more advanced controls. In those cases, you start to feel the pain. I wish ngrok had more flexibility in the free or low-tier plans, especially around persistent tunnels, reserved URLs, and usage limits. It would also be very useful to have even better traffic analytics and easier collaboration features for small teams. If I could change one thing about ngrok, I would make persistent tunnels and reserved URLs more flexible in the lower plans. That would make my workflow smoother because I wouldn't need to keep redoing tunnel setup for repeated testing and demos. Making persistent tunnels and reserved URLs more flexible in the lower plans would change my workflow by reducing repeated setup and making webhook testing and demos faster while giving the team more consistent URLs for local services.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In one year we were able to accomplish what we could not in our 3 year Archer contract, and we did it with half the consulting services and one-third the administrators."
"We have far more visibility into our compliance, risks and controls over the areas we are managing versus accepting risk, and Rsam has also been extremely helpful with the annual audits we receive from our regulators."
"The most valuable feature is automation."
"Overall, ngrok is a very useful tool for developers, simplifying local testing, especially for APIs and integrations, which helps speed up the development workflow and identify issues early on."
"For a simple college project, ngrok was more than enough and definitely met my needs."
"ngrok has positively impacted my organization by helping keep everything transparent."
"We see a return on investment with ngrok; there are many benefits I can list down, such as very easy setup, no need for hosting, great for debugging, real-time request inspection, and many more."
"The specific outcome my team experienced is easier collaboration."
"This made my productivity very quick and allowed me to finish my task very fast."
"ngrok did change team collaboration because earlier it was quite a waterfall model, but today, with ngrok, we are able to utilize the public URL and instantly demo the features that we develop, keeping everybody charged up to deliver quickly and show the version that they have locally."
"ngrok saves weeks of development time, as I am able to catch problems and fix them without deploying resources in dev servers or production servers."
 

Cons

"While they don't need as much consulting to get the product implemented, I do wish they had more available."
"The cost of the solution is expensive and needs improvement."
"Ngrok offers excellent features including how quickly it operates, how easy it is to set up, and it is free for use for a limited time, though it does have a good amount of latency which I consider a drawback."
"One improvement I have noticed is when configuring integrations with external APIs like Slack."
"In terms of features, ngrok is very feature-rich and reliable, but with heavy usage, the costs can increase based on the usage plan, which could be improved to be a little cheaper."
"ngrok can be improved in the following way: when we unexpectedly close the laptop or sometimes close the page where we are running ngrok, that can be improved."
"The biggest friction point I faced with ngrok was the limitation on the free plan and the occasional need to manage sessions or URLs again."
"When I hit the limit for the first time, I was taken aback as I was not paying attention, and at that moment, I wished the limits were a little higher."
"For the documentation part, ngrok should provide an easy transition for legacy users."
"To make it a very easy and user-friendly experience, I will give it a nine."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I give the cost of the solution a six out of ten."
