Its an app to test the REST

  • February 13, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is just a plugin to do the job hence I like it the most.
Its not a heavy software that is installed on your machine.
The plugin is just 23 Mega Bytes and the its worth the size and everyone who wants to work with web services should work with this software , it is one of the best plugin that is available in the market as of now.
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing about this i dislike, unless i would say other apps should be like this.
Any one can not dislike this , Its awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We need to test our web services with this application.
And mostly rest web services only.
And it is just perfect in testing REST services.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
i would definetly recommend to all the users who are using SOAP UI for testing the REST web services.
Just give a try to postman , You won't go back to SOAP UI

Postman Made My Life Easy

  • January 31, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Postman is you can make request in all the forms like JSON, Form-Data, Form-Url-Encoded using this tool, and we get the data in JSON or XML format. I would believe that for a backend developer this the best tool to test the API's.
What do you dislike about the product?
When there is a big array of data, If there was a place to make it short and and understand how many objects are there in the array. To check the issues with the JSON response data this is little difficult. I use a online tool http://www.jsoneditoronline.org/ to verify the JSON. If this tool would have been integrated with the POSTMAN, then it would have awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am nodeJS developer so I use this only for API development.
I also use this tool to test the performance of the API (Response Time)
I also use this tool to check third party API's, When we have to integrate with our Application.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Yes I would definitely would love to recommend Postman to others, In fact even now I recommend it to my friends, colleagues.

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, no bug, great performance, can save url that we tested. It comes in google chrome application, I install in google chrome so automatically install postman when I use google chrome with my account on every computer that I use.

I think saved url name can be just display url name itself instead we have to named it and change it if url changed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing and debugging Web API for Android and iOS Application.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use postman to tested your Web API, it comes with great features to ease you testing response from Web API.

Postman review for API.

  • November 07, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

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

  • September 12, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

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

  • September 06, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

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

  • August 25, 2016
  • Review provided by G2

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
