Efficiently filters API data though experiences slower performance with larger projects
What is our primary use case?
I primarily use Apollo GraphQL to work with APIs in conjunction with Node.js. When I make API calls, I receive a lot of information, but I only need specific details like names, emails, and photos. Using Apollo GraphQL, I can filter out unnecessary information, which improves performance. I have deployed it on my GitHub account.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of Apollo GraphQL are its security and authentication process. These roles are crucial, especially when working with APIs. Its ability to filter and streamline API responses for performance efficiency is also highly appreciated.
What needs improvement?
I would like to see better performance in larger projects. When dealing with large amounts of data, it can become slow, causing users to potentially abandon the application. Improving performance and ensuring the app runs smoothly would enhance user experience. Stability issues, where it sometimes breaks down, need to be addressed as well.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Apollo GraphQL for about three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
While Apollo GraphQL is stable 70% of the time, it does have breakdowns. Sometimes it does not connect, and given that they are continuously working on it, these issues occasionally arise.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Apollo GraphQL's performance depends on API requests, updates, and deletions. However, scalability can be a concern as network issues sometimes cause it to break down.
How are customer service and support?
I have not contacted Apollo GraphQL's support team directly. I usually get help from friends and developers who are familiar with it.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
How was the initial setup?
The setup process is not very easy but not too difficult either. It is more of an intermediate level process.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I am not sensitive to nor very knowledgeable about the pricing and setup cost.
What other advice do I have?
From one to ten, I would rate Apollo GraphQL six or six point five. Despite its benefits, it can sometimes break down badly, and the need for continuous improvements might involve handling heavy loads, especially for smaller to medium apps. I rate the overall solution at 6.5.
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

What do you like best about the product?
As someone who has used apollographql.com, there are several aspects that I really appreciate about the platform. One of the things I like best is the comprehensive documentation they provide. The documentation is well-structured, easy to navigate, and covers a wide range of topics related to GraphQL and Apollo. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can find everything you need to get started or dive deeper into GraphQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
Complexity for Simple Projects: If you're working on a relatively simple project with limited data requirements, the comprehensive features provided by Apollo Client and the entire Apollo ecosystem might feel like overkill. The additional layers and abstractions introduced by Apollo Client could potentially add unnecessary complexity, making the development process feel more involved than necessary for simpler use cases.
