Postman review for API.
What do you like best about the product?
This tool is best to test API its look and feel is also great. I like the user interface of postman and this is light weighted . Overall user experience is very nice . First time user can use this product without any guidance. It can add another feature to add JSON validation on body of POST and PUT request.
What do you dislike about the product?
When we are testing API which are on HTTPS it gives error insted of giving error i expect POSTMAN to give a popup about SSL issue and give me option to go ahead as non recommended option the way it happens in internet explore and chrome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are connecting different system and exposing API on top of these system. We need to test our API and postman solve the problem of testing API with ease.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are working on API based development then postman is the first thing you need to download to test your API.
Great for basic Rest API testing
What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely easy to save request sessions to to test API's and keep track of what you've done with services so far. It's easier to use than Fiddler.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Chrome extension adds headers automatically, unlike Fiddler. This may make you wonder why the API call is returning 200OK instead of a 4xx response, since you didn't add the content header explicitly in the request. Also, there's no way to see that the header was added, I figured it out by comparing against Fiddler.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
REST API testing. It's super easy to keep track of your tests and also demo API usage to customers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Since Chrome applications will be deprecated in 2017, please give Windows and Mac users standalone apps too. The product is wonderful and I would hate to lose it!
Essential API Development Tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create multiple environments and utilize variables within those environments that you can use to specify things like URLs or authorization tokens. This makes is easy to test you APIs across all the environments, without having to create separate collections for each. I also love the runner, which goes hand in hand with the ability to create tests and quickly regression test changes to your API.
I haven't used it yet, but the generate code feature is awesome as well, and will save a ton of time in the future.

What do you dislike about the product?
This is a minor niggle, and probably just a symptom of it being a chrome addin and not a complete application, but if you make a change to one of your connections and then close the window without saving, it doesn't ask you to save.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allowed me to quickly respond to issues with my API across all of my environments, and quickly regression test changes that I made throughout the development process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to learn about the environments and environment variables ahead of time, so that you don't have to re-write your connections later.
Great tool for API development and testing
What do you like best about the product?
Great user interface, keeps history, customizable, allows creation of a battery of tests.
What do you dislike about the product?
Postman works only as a Google Chrome or Chromium extension. I would like to have it as a standalone application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are building RESTful APIs for healthcare using HL7 FHIR standard. We use Postman to test our APIs and to play with FHIR reference servers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Postman is a great tool to test your APIs and to play with other APIs
Best client tool for testing/sharing APIs
What do you like best about the product?
Requesting, saving all API and categorising them based on the server. It also has sync and share feature so that other members in the team can import latest API updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although there is nothing wrong with it, once in a while, it fails to sync. This is a bug and should be resolved in future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing application API that works with mobile apps. It is used by all the members of our Tech team. A streamline application that has all the necessary feature. New members can easily learn to use this product with 10-15 mins of introduction about the software..
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have been using it for more than 2 years and has recommended to many friends to streamline API testing.
Use this tool. It's a complete app and works with multiple projects and can be used for different environment such as local/staging/live on the same project.
There are new features and native app for windows is on its way.
