I have been using Postman for three years. I am not using the tool's latest version, Postman v10.11.1, but I am not sure. I think I am using the older version, Postman v9. I am just a customer of the tool.

Postman, a user-friendly approach of testing APIs
What do you like best about the product?
There are certain features in Postman that look really good to me : 1.) Response formatting (can format the API response in JSON etc.) 2.) Environment setup (I can create and switch to a new environment which is very helpful to test the API response either in Quality or Production) 3.) I can easily get the code snippets for the provided API integration in the desired coding language, which is very helpful and time saving. 4.) I can also create my team, where all the members can perform testing simultaneously.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much to dislike in Postman, but few are: 1.) I can add only limited member in a team with a basic/free plan. 2.) Sometimes, I get 429 for repeated API calls. 3.) Sometimes I also feel like Postman should also allow the user to manage workspace as code blocks rather limiting it to endpoints only.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides various features that solve common problems faced during API development and interaction:
1.) Simplifies API Testing and Debugging : Simplifies API testing by providing a visual interface for interacting with APIs, making it easy for developers and testers to debug requests and responses.
2.) Collaborative API Development : Increases productivity by providing a shared environment for developers, testers, and stakeholders to collaborate on APIs.
3.) Comprehensive API Documentation : Saves time by generating real-time documentation and provides a clear reference for developers using or consuming the API.

Best API tool
What do you like best about the product?
It lets me to design, call and test APIs and share the configuration and collections with my team
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found anything I dislike about it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I can design, call and test APIs in a very easy way
User-friendly for users and has a good user interface
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The solution's most valuable feature is the data flow. In Postman, the API additions are very easy to process. I think there is no other tool that makes things very easy like Postman. Postman is user-friendly. We can understand all three types of calls very easily in a single frame only. Everything is available in just a click of it. I think the user interface is really good for the application because there are a lot of tools available that let you handle API integration with Postman.
What needs improvement?
I am not sure where the product can be improved since I have used only one particular application to work with API and not any other applications. I currently do not have anything, you know, for Postman to be improved upon because I am very satisfied with whatever they have right now.
The product lacks a good console. In the future, I would want the tool to have a better console. I feel that the console can be a better option that can be added to the solution. When we use the API calls, the results are available in the console. The tool's console can be a bit better and more interactive. It is very weak currently, and I feel that it could have a better interactive console.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Postman for three years. I am not using the tool's latest version, Postman v10.11.1, but I am not sure. I think I am using the older version, Postman v9. I am just a customer of the tool.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a very stable solution. For the past three years, I have not faced any major problems related to Postman.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
A lot of people in my team use the product. I would say that over 100 people are using the solution.
How are customer service and support?
I have not had any interactions with the product's support team since I have not faced issues with this solution.
How was the initial setup?
The product's deployment phase is easy.
In terms of the deployment model, I would say that I use it locally in my system.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Postman is an open-source product. It is free to download from Google.
What other advice do I have?
Postman is really great if you are working with APIs. It is very easy to understand, and I think that a lot of tutorials are already available on YouTube. I don't think you have to break your head to understand it separately. The tool's user interface is very friendly, and it is very easy to use.
I have not used to the monitoring and automation features of the product.
The integration capabilities of Postman help streamline development processes, and it is one of its main highlights. Presently, I think Postman lets you interact with other tools and web applications. It makes the development phase easy.
Postman is a really good tool for API integration. I don't see the tool lacking any features because Postman helps us with all the data governance parts.
It may not exactly be easy for beginners to start learning how to use Postman for the first time. If he or she has experience working with API, then it might be easy to use Postman. For people who have no experience with APIs, it might be a bit difficult in the beginning to use Postman, but after a certain point in time, it will be easy.
I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
Postman api
What do you like best about the product?
Postman is very useful when we have to send and receive requests through application programming interfaces especially while working with python I found it very useful
What do you dislike about the product?
The implementation process is quite complex as we have to set it to send and receive requests
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can use to to test or we can use it in client side where they don't want to give the inputs and get the outputs in console
Best software to work with the APIs.
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing i like is whenever i request api then the code is automatically generated. It stores everything in the history tab which helps in tracking. Postman sandbox is a great feature to test and build requests. And it is very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike about it. It is better than other softwares like Insomnia.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of this we can reuse the cookies later which is very beneficial and time saving. It has the best authentcation protocol like OAuth 2 which is very secure. With the collection feature all the Api can be managed easily. When working with the big team it is easy to share the environments and collections with other co-workers.
Offers a free version that is easy to implement
What is our primary use case?
I use Postman from time to time to test real-time API connections.
When I receive documentation regarding API services, I use Postman to verify that the explanation in the documentation I received is working as described. In general, the tool is good for testing purposes.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of the solution are drafting requests, pushing the standard, and receiving responses. The tool's basic operational stuff is valuable.
The automation testing capability is something that I haven't used. In the past, I have used SoapUI to automate tasks, but I haven't tried it in Postman. I was not even aware that it was possible to automate tasks in Postman.
What needs improvement?
Some features related to the automation of tasks need to be added to the solution. The tool may already have some automated testing features, but I haven't discovered Postman's full operational status. When I need the tool's automated testing features, I will certainly have a look at the documentation.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Postman for four years. I am a user of the tool.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
The stability of the product has been better since last month.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I have experience with SoapUI. The environment where I work for the moment is more Postman-oriented. In the past, some government departments in Belgium were using SoapUI. Postman is similar to SoapUI. The features in SoapUI, for instance, the automated testing features, are things that I don't need at the moment. Postman performs how I like it.
How was the initial setup?
The product is easy to implement. You need some knowledge to implement the product. As I was more or less familiar with SoapUI, I could very easily pick up the way Postman works.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I use the tool's free version.
What other advice do I have?
The product is not used for collaboration but for testing purposes in my company. In short, I use the product, and it is not used for exchanging or exporting data. I use the product at a very personal level, considering its API-related capabilities.
The tool performs well enough to meet my expectations.
I rate the tool an eight to nine out of ten.
A review of Postman
What do you like best about the product?
It is a helpful tool that is Api-First oriented. The principle was developed a decade ago and Postman has many features to perform API governance. Postman illustrates Automate Programmable Interface like a product. The documentation of an API is a starting point. From there, I may reach the code and add multiple tests. Postman is available online and also on several Operating System.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Api client lacks of archives for the previous versions. Besides, It is complicated to reach out to the support team payment issues. In addition to this, The Api client moves from an open source initiative to a licensed software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The issues sorted out are numerous. Firstly, Postman resolves the methodology to develop Automate Programmable Interfaces. Postman is an API client that provides solution for unit tests, scenario tests or validation tests.. There is an opportunity to work without sillos through Postman.Besides, the API client is a helpful tool for API monitoring, API observability and API governance.
A highly stable solution with an easy initial setup phase
What is our primary use case?
I use Postman in my company for API testing.
What is most valuable?
Postman has a lot of additional features like the ones offered by SwaggerHub. Postman is a bit more complicated compared to SwaggerHub since you have to insert bearer tokens all the time and set everything from the start. I mainly use SwaggerHub as it is easy for me. I always get back to SwaggerHub from Postman.
What needs improvement?
Postman is a bit more of a complex tool, making it an area where improvements can be made.
Postman is good the way it is right now, so there's nothing to change in it.

I have been using Postman for a year. My company is a customer of the product.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It is a stable solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
In my company, over 50 employees use Postman.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was easy and not difficult.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
