Great Tool to create/test API
What do you like best about the product?
I was introduced to POSTMAN back in college. I used it to send POST and GET requests.It was a great tool to get API data and receive the output in a variety of formats like JSON or XML. But the best feature I used was when I started my first job and I used it to build a mock API for an app. It helped me create mock API callouts which could be shared across with your team without worrying about having an actual backend.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had to read a lot of tutorials on how to create mock API requests and how to save the response. The tutorials provided don't go in depth on each use case. A better walkthrough of all the features would really make it easy to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped me create dummy backends for my web app without having to worry about having an actual backend while working on my front-end. Helps in creating API structures by allowing us to save responses for a callout request.
Postman - Efficient and reliable tool for API
What do you like best about the product?
This application is easy to use, secure and reliable. Easily can test API on cross platforms. Using this application now i can test APIs quickly. I can create API keys to authenticate the request to Postman. As well as i can create new workspace easily for the developer and integrators as per requirement. Easily can review the history of request as this stores all these.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only thing i noticed that if there is a large scale of array then it becomes a little bit confusing to identify the objects even this can be problematic for fresher developer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman made development and integration task easy for us. On requirement base easily we use to update the resource utilization limit. Keeping backup of our data on the cloud with the use of Postman. Feeling more secure as now we are validating request through API key. We automated the API testing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For API testing this application is a great choice and this is cross platform tool.
Postman really delivers
What do you like best about the product?
It all comes down the ease of use. I used to have to develop mini test apps in order to hit a REST or SOAP service. Postman eliminates that altogether!
What do you dislike about the product?
A very limited subset of client certificates are supported. It would be nice to get all the common ones in there.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were trying to help with testing time. Before, custom, messy test apps were being used, which added a lot to testing time. Postman really eliminates that need. It's been great, and turned something that caused a lot of friction, into something that just works smoothly and takes almost no time at all to setup.
Great tool for Rest Services
What do you like best about the product?
I like the exhaustiveness of this tool to shoot out HTTP requests
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool offers a lot. So much that sometimes it becomes difficult to navigate. This is definitely not a con but the only thing I dislike
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Invoking Rest APIs and shooting HTTP requests. I was also able to store sessions so that I dont have to remember details.
A must for would be API Librarians
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use yet powerful provided you can code a bit.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't access databases (or at least I have not found a way).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documenting and testing APIs is a matter of organisation, and Postman makes it very easy to organise API tests into logical suites (collections). I call myself an API Librarian rather than a tester because to me the greatest aspect of Postman is the ability to organise requests.
When it comes to repetitive coded test elements, like setting a valid future date or calculating and expected value, Postman offers very powerful variable options at a local and global level.
We are writing Javascript to provide additional functionality, which could become a maintenance headache, but in Postman you can load the Javascript into a variable and simply call the function you need into the individual tests.
Using Newman we integrate the Postman collection tests into our CI environment, running automatically at every build and deployment. This works with Jenkins, Bamboo and GoCD (and similar tools).
And finally because the tests are easy to understand our non-technical stakeholders can get involved. I only wish I could write tests that go to check the contents of databases (like Couchbase or MongoDB as well as SQL databases) from within Postman.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make extensive use of yourself an easy life and treat it like a library or catalogue of API requests.
Quick and reliable
What do you like best about the product?
Takes out the headache of trying to run queries on an app
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there are too many input fields that can get confusing for simple queries
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman allows us to quickly test our database API programmatically instead of constantly running through test cases in the app
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The UI is friendly and the functions are just what you need to quickly test your APIs instead of wasting time manually triggering GET and POST requests within your mobile app or website
Wonderful way to easily test apis
What do you like best about the product?
I like how the combination of a good UI and how the features provided allow such an easy way to quickly hit APIs for testing purposes
What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't run into any problems yet, it gets the job done just as expected
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing API endpoints
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for hitting API endpoints quickly.
Allows saving request configurations and grouping them into collections for quick access

Useful for testing and niche integrations
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can use it to manage processes that aren't fully baked into platforms yet. Supports a wide range of testing scenarios.
What do you dislike about the product?
The usability is definitely expert-level. I need tutorials to know how to use Postman on a regular basis.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using to create manifests for specific types of shipments. This is a quick solution that allows us to stay ahead of the curve.

- Limit access for "API mock server"
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to test API before integrating with a Mobile app or Web App.
The benefits: API test is faster if using Postman because postman is easy to learn.

Easy to use and easy to learn
The most used software at work
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to save and manage API calls. Lot of great features to make lives of API developers easy. This is one tool every API developer must have. It is more powerful and easy to use compared to some of its competitors . It rolls out upgraded versions pretty often and usually new and good features are added. Lot of information about the information is made available to the users, including cookies.
What do you dislike about the product?
Probably when it was new, it was a bit hard to save and maintain requests for multiple environments, but now this is not the case. Saving or cloning can sometimes be a problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This is used to test API calls while developing or used by quality engineers to test various API calls. It is used to test our APIs on multiple environments, including our local boxes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A Must have tool for any API developer or tester. Definitely needs to be tried.
