What do you like best about the product?

We evaluated a handful of APIM solutions and Tyk ended up as our clear favourite. Here are a couple of points which to us made Tyk stand out over other solutions:

- Truely On-Premise and open source option without any "phone home mechanisms" (other vendors tend to push their Cloud/Hybrid solutions)
- Very easy to set up on Kubernetes
- Excellent choices of technologies which fit our existing tech stack (e.g. Postgres, Keycloak, Redis)
- Config as code ("Tyk Operator")
- Portal highly customizable via custom themes
- Well designed and intuitive UI (we found other solutions to often have overloaded UIs and/or a worse UX)
- Fair pricing
- Amazing communication and interactions with Tyk people, highly professional processes and materials
- In general a very well thought out solution

What do you dislike about the product?

During our setup process we found parts of the Helm/Kubernetes documentation to not be entirely exhaustive, however the Tyk team was very quick to help us with any questions we had

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We wanted to provide an API portal to our API consumers, where we can offer documentation and API credentials in a self-service manner.
