Must have for API users

  • November 11, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman has a very intuitive UI. It is easy to use and not confusing at all. They also have a very good support community where you can talk about your concerns and questions. They are answered quickly as well. On top of all this, it supports all sophisticated REST APIs which is icing on the cake. The best part is you get all of this at no cost to you. What else can you ask for? Also they continually improve the software which is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the fact that they discontinued the chrome webapp support. Previously you could run it right on your chrome browser(which everybody uses it anyways, these days) As most of the apis run on the web, you could previously just quickly switch tabs and try it out on postman. Now it runs as a separate app. This is a bit of inconvenience as it runs in a separate window and takes more resources of your computer. I hope they bring back the native chrome webapp support in near future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Api testing. Benefits have been increased revenues. The software does not break very often and third party vendors who use our API are happier resulting in long staying customers
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Adopt it. It is the best API management app in the market.It supports all REST APIs including the latest HATEos architecture. Also the software has a free plan so you have nothing to lose. There are no ads as well to distract you. They have a paid plan for $24 which is cheap in my opinion for an enterprise software.

Postman is probably the best Api testing tool.

What do you like best about the product?
User interface is pretty good compared to other testing tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
Multiple api testing is still a limitation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I belong to an Automation team and in orders to trigger our bots we depend on Api, so it helps us to trigger the bot providing payload and the bot easily runs in unattended mode.

Well designed API Testing Tool

  • November 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Postman tool is it creates a setup like the actual environment, so we can try a variety of test cases through it to analyse the overall functioning of API. We can use all types of API options like POST/PUT/GET/DELETE with either HTTP or HTTPS protocols. We can send and receive data in XML or JSON.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a heavy software, so it usually takes time to start. Also, this is not for beginners those who do not have much knowledge of API's functioning and testing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this tool to test RESTful API's which we have created for different services of our project. Postman let us try these API's as it was used in the actual environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are an experienced developer or tester looking for an API's management and creation tool, Postman is a good choice. You can use to verify your test cases created for the API with ease. Postman has all features to test an API like the actual environment.

Great tool for API call verification

  • November 10, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a non-programmer myself having a GUI tool that helps be verify that everything works before handing it to the customer is a big plus, no awkward moments of something non-working by a typo or a syntax error, if something is wrong I can ask for help from our engineers or fix it myself since the error messages are so easy to read
What do you dislike about the product?
API calls sometimes depends on the browser and many other factors I use it as a "no obvious errors" checkmark but our QA team does a bunch of tests before making sure it works, our engineers and me are only users of the API. Using Postman is a really cool tool but is not enough for a developer
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a delivery manager, my main role is to deliver the service and explain it to our customers. I sometimes get ask technical questions and how to use the Meraki API that we use, Postman helps me understand and explain the use of our products without having to always resort to more technical focused people
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's not hard to use even if you are not a programmer or an engineer, learn the basics, and even if you are not able to write an API call you'll be able to understand it with no issues

Best API testing tool

  • November 09, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is super simple and easy to pick up quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
For a very beginner to APIs it can be a little difficult to understand the terms used within the software but I don’t think that would be Postman’s target customer
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whenever I’m utilizing an API for the first time I always use postman to run the testing and get a feel for what kinds of responses I can get. It cuts down a lot of the time it takes to figure out authentication and sets me up for success when authenticating on my own.

Postman great experience for long time.

What do you like best about the product?
- Test API Calls During development.
- We can create and manage Environments based on each projects.
- We can set Environment variables, so we can use easily at all other places wherever we want that value.
- Convert API call code to different language that helps a lot to developers.
- We can save API response to help other developers to identify what response should return.
What do you dislike about the product?
- We can only test REST APIs and can not test SOAP APIs
- Sometime, Memory usage is increased as you continuously using this App.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Save completed APIs and save them, so other developer easily identify how they needs to implement.
- We can save response, so developers can easily create models based on response prediction.
- Sharing postman collection with other, so they can easily import and check.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for proper application to test your APIs, then Postman is great tool.

A Great Way to Test Your APIs

  • November 08, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to create API calls and then organize them around your project. Postman can especially useful when you are testing across a variety of environments. I love that you can build around these environments and have different variables to fill in depending on which you are using.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you're not paying for it, the only good way to share data with your team is by downloading and sending files. Still, not bad at all for a free platform. I haven't used lots of the features they have like the collection Runner, so there are still things for me to discover.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use postman to test every API I create. As someone who primarily works on the backend, I love being able to work directly with my APIs and know that they are working as intended. It is also a great way to test third part APIs that you might be interested in using.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Set up environments so that you can use your collections across all your deployments, and take the time to organize your collections in a clear way.

A great tool to test, validate, and deploy your APIs

  • November 08, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is very simple to use. You can easily run REST API calls, pass in variables in various formats (query string, request header, body, etc), set it as a Get, Post, Put, etc. You can also export your API setup to easily install onto another computer or share with a co-worker.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally on Windows 10 Postman won't open. But that usually means that the version I had was too old, so I just needed to update.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I needed to consume API calls from other companies, and validate that the data I receive is what I expect. Before Postman, I had to build a program to run the calls. Postman is so much quicker and easier to perform these tasks. It even gives you code snippets that you can use to paste into your code to let you consume APIs quicker!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it. You won't regret it.
