Perfect in Everything
What do you like best about the product?
I am using postman from last 3 years and this is the best for Callouts, to check the APIs of any aplication to change the data of the particular apps.
Like I am working as a Salesforce Developer, So It helps to integrate any software with Salesforce to check which Outh that app using to run the apis smoothlt also we can change the data using POST callout.
In Postman there are several pre defined API which you can use to intergrate something or to make callouts.

Solution simplifies web service testing with impressive speed and accessibility
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
It is very easy for me to use and I highly prefer it compared to SoapUI and other products for performing its job. It is more handy and faster. It has impacted us very nicely.
Postman is used for free by us. I'm not sure if there might be a paid version for multiple users. It is a very good product used for development. It is easy to install, as well as to learn, particularly for new users, even if they are not developers. I taught my business analyst to use it. I just showed them once, and it was easy for them to understand.
For example, I gave them the URL and request format and asked them to test independently. They were able to use it on their own and do their testing as well. It was a good experience, especially for generally smart people, like those we usually hire in our company. It is pretty easy to explain, and learning it is not complex.
What needs improvement?
It is really good. I don't think there is any need for comments on improvements. It is super.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have used the solution for five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate it ten out of ten for stability. It is a good product. It is a very good product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
This solution is scalable. It can be scaled. Maybe, as mentioned, an automation feature would be beneficial. However, it is good in its own right. If it is changed, it might lose its purpose.
How are customer service and support?
It is a good thing that it was never needed. It is not needed. That is the best part. They might be there, but it is so good that you don't really need them.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I didn't really use it. I was the manager of the team, so I am not sure if it even has a collaboration feature. Maybe it can have a collaboration feature if it doesn't.
How was the initial setup?
The setup is very straightforward. It can be downloaded directly from the browser. It gets installed immediately. It is a good tool and doesn't even need to be installed; it can be used directly from the browser. It is good.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
I have used Eclipse, Eclipse Duo, and all their versions, as well as Microsoft Azure or Visual Studio. I have used many tools actually.
The main difference is that it can also be used in the browser. It doesn't need to be installed always. Or even if it is, it is very easy to install. You just search for Postman, click download, and you start working on it.
Maybe there is a workspace requirement if your company needs it, however, that is also easy to manage. The main advantage is that getting started is quick and doesn't require going through a lot of documentation. It is pretty self-explanatory.
What other advice do I have?
If I have the use case to use it, like testing web services, it is the best tool out there. If I am developing any application, I should definitely use it because it is very easy. Also, in dark mode, it looks really cool. The dashboard looks cool in dark mode.
Overall rating: Ten out of ten.

Streamlines API testing and enhances endpoint management for diverse environments
What is our primary use case?
I am currently using Postman when working with different web applications. I use it particularly when working on APIs and endpoints, especially in testing REST APIs that I've built with Django REST framework in Python.
How has it helped my organization?
Using Postman has allowed me to efficiently conduct many tests on REST APIs. It has facilitated my ability to manage different data, handle various protocols, and process numerous customer requirements across various projects.
What is most valuable?
I mainly use Postman to conduct extensive testing on REST APIs, particularly those built with Python and the Django REST framework. Postman is very user-friendly and accessible even for those with minimal experience. In my role, I appreciate Postman for its parts in managing and testing APIs.
Postman also simplifies working with endpoints by allowing different methods to send information, making the debugging process more manageable. It also offers robust compatibility with various environments, making it a vital tool in my operations.
Additionally, the desktop version's features like cookie management, environment compatibility, security settings, proxy integration, and data synchronization add significant value.
What needs improvement?
One of the primary challenges with Postman is handling authentication issues, especially relating to tokens and passwords. The management of endpoints' headers sometimes conflicts with APIs that require information in the body, leading to difficulties.
Furthermore, connection and timeout issues, like when testing APIs that require authentication, can occur.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Postman for eight years, utilizing it mainly for testing and working with different technological protocols.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The tool is generally stable, though there are occasional challenges, such as authentication issues causing errors or issues with connection stability.
