A truly amazing productivity tool
What do you like best about the product?
Postman's user interface is perfect for what it needs to do, and I feel right at home when I fire it up. I've only scratched the surface of the features that they've designed, but using Postman is my favorite part of many days.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any strong dislikes. I wish I could implement documentation a bit better, as I am regularly training others and the current documentation tools are good but not yet great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman allows me to increase my capabilities in technical support by leveraging the API which our platform is built on. It also allows me to easily train others on how to do the same, raising the collective knowledge of our team quite a lot.
Postman - All you need for REST API
What do you like best about the product?
Postman is the best tool to use the REST APIs, handsdown. It allows me to view and send the response/request in multiple forms which comes in very handy for the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike about the postman tool. It has been very helpful in my daily working routine. It makes API testing very seemless and the experience has been very smooth.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman mainly helps in testing the APIs. The ability to automate things within postman has been very useful as it reduces the time while doing integration testing.
Good stability and easy initial setup process
What is our primary use case?
We use the solution for rest API testing purposes.
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature is code-based API testing. The technicians have complete control over the business logic code in the test tool.
What needs improvement?
Occasionally, a few variables get errors due to concurrent instances running simultaneously. They should improve this particular area. Also, providing more specific documentation on configuration would be helpful.

I rate the solution as a nine.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Private Cloud
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
Postman great UI testing utility for REST APIs
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use of the user interface. Postman also automatically fills in some expected conditions of the traditional cURL statement making it much quicker to test your APIs without spending too much time writing the same things over and over again.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes Postman will make assumptions about an API call and automatically generate some headers that aren't expected by the receiving party. As a result, I will sometimes have to manually edit/remove some of these assumed headers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman lets me quickly design and test my API calls before implementing them into the codebase that we're working on. This takes a lot of guesswork out of the process and speeds up production.
Using Postman almost every day
What do you like best about the product?
Very useful to test API end-points in a very intuitive user interface. Also very easy to automate the chainning of API call sequences with scripting to input data from one API call to another.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that Postman now runs in the cloud could worry some that their data is being snooped on, but we are only using it against TEST environments (not PRODUCTION), so not an actual worry for us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows us to test our API end-points in an easy way. It also allows us to conduct proof of concept (PoC) when integrating with a 3rd party vendor, before building a full blown integration.
The best software for mocks!!!!
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Postman for more than 2 yrs now. I must say the best thing about it is protecting private apis. Along with it, the best option is can create documentation on it, and from there directly we can mock the documented API.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far, I hadn't had any issues with Postman. Everything is well described in it making it the least hard to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Postman, one can concur that with its help, almost everything related to API working, testing, designing, mocking, etc., has been made easy. I use postman on daily basis to mock apis before integrating them with my application.

2. Not much to dislike
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All the platforms and users use Postman for development and testing; all types of user input, requests and responses can be captured easily. File import and exports can be done with it .
Easy API development and testing that's fast and user-friendly
What is our primary use case?
We used the solution in multiple ways, including:
1. We create Rest APIs for the communication of the front end to the backend. For the testing of those Rest APIs, we use Postman. It provides a user-friendly platform for API testing with all the request methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, and many more. We can create our own collections like group requests. We can easily share the collection with the team.
2. We are using Postman to create the documentation of the REST APIs, which the backend team creates, so the frontend engineer can easily see the request type, headers, methods, and response body for the request.
3. It is also used as an API testing tool by the automation testing team. We can write our own tests with the assert statements in Postman after the response.
How has it helped my organization?
Postman helps us to automate the API testing in the team.
It helps to share the Rest API documents with the front-end team so that they can easily integrate the API with the front-end.
It also helps in the monitoring of the APIs to check the health of an existing API.
It makes API development and testing faster and more user-friendly. It does not require any prior knowledge to work with the Postman.
It supports the GQL requests as well as the REST API.
What is most valuable?
It allows all the request methods like GET, POST, PUT, PATCH, DELETE, COPY, OPTIONS, LINK, UNLINK, and many more.
It allows all types of authentication requests like API Key, JWT bearer, Basic OAuth, OAuth 2.0, Bearer token, and many more.
It allows us to set the environment variables as per our different environments, like QA1, QA2, STAGE, DEV, PERF, and UAT.
It allows you to write the pre-request script that runs prior to any API call.
It allows us to save requests in a collection and share the collection with the team.
What needs improvement?
There is no support for the SOCKET testing with Postman.
There is no support for the testing of the SOAP APIs.
Sometimes it crashes when a lot of collections are imported in a Postman.
There is no mechanism for parallel testing.
There is no scope for load testing like in JMeter.
There is low script reusability.
It does not support SMTP protocols; it only allows HTTP protocol.
It does not allow for a data-driven approach. It cannot get the data from a database and use it for testing purposes.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Postman for the last three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is easy to use and is a lightweight solution. For the last three years it has been working perfectly fine, and we are using it for API development, API testing, and documentation to share with the front end.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We can easily use Postman for large projects. We can create collections - as many as we want - and share them as JSON, for example.
How are customer service and support?
There is a huge community of Postman users. I have never had a chance to connect directly with the support team of Postman as I get help online.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have been using Postman from the start as it is user-friendly and does not require any prerequisite language to use it.
How was the initial setup?
It's quite easy to set up. You simply download it and then install it and start using it.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We are using the free version as of now. However, the paid version allows users to create the workspace and share the common collection with more than four teammates.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We evaluated Katalon as well.
What other advice do I have?
It is easy to use. However, it does not allow for Socket and SOAP API testing.
