Perfect solution to test and document APIs

  • December 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I had been using Postman since it's first public release. Before Postman, I don't know if there was any solution like this which makes API testing and sharing APIs so much easy. Best thing is that it works, easy to use, sharing through Export/import features is super easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
As Postman desktop app is not open sourced, I'm concerned about privacy of my data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Testing and documenting APIs
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Using postman makes it easier to collaborate over APIs. Saves a lot of time and mistakes.

Simple to use, powerful tool

  • December 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tool is easy to use and quick to get used to. There are many options, and if you have any knowledge about how REST APIs work you can quickly understand all of the functions it offers.
What do you dislike about the product?
The functionality to save and recall settings/API calls is REALLY not intuitive. The function exists, but as far as I can tell, you can only do it as a "library" or "collection". Also, when the program updates, sometimes the API settings you have been using will all be lost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool helps us immensely when trying to use third party REST APIs. We are able to quickly test connectivity, validate responses, and figure out implementation details.

Fantastic API Testing environment

  • December 28, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman's design is very intuitive and impressively supportive: cookies, custom headers, diverse POST data methods.
Lets you set defaults by environment, capable of auto creating documentation, able to simulate a mock server, and even capable of performing automated tests.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sub folder architecture is less robust than the root folders; for example, we can only auto-create API documentation for everything in a root folder, not just for one sub-folder in a root folder.
Unable to send multiple TYPES of POST data. For example, I can't send a file as form-data AND JSON key:values as url-encoded.
The default key:value input for "x-www-form-urlencoded" doesn't support nested JSON/key:values
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Postman allows us to quickly and efficiently test our API responses speeding up sanity checks, response, and error handling.
It may not be a substitute for unit testing, but highly effective at testing quick calls, suites, or production issues without much overhead.

Great tool for API testing

  • December 21, 2017

What do you like best about the product?
Store variables in environments;
Saved requests in collections
Generate code snippets in different languages
What do you dislike about the product?
Does not save response history
More automation features
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I do a lot of API integrations for our customers and need to run quick API tests everyday. Postman really makes this process easy and fast. You can build your own environments and collections and share them with your teams as well.

Postman is so useful and features full of a free product!

  • November 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman is so useful and features full of a free product! I almost want to pay for it just to contribute. Saving a collection of server requests for future use is nice. Love the environment variables. The automated test is pretty awesome! There is a neat feature that I use pretty often is to generate code from a particular request and you can choose the language.
What do you dislike about the product?
Environment variable autocompletes would be pretty nice. I find myself needing to "edit" the variables to view the name I gave something.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Web developers should really have this in there top tools. A huge amount of time saved with requests templates i can quickly go in an tweak to do server testing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a free product so give it a try. Really nice and i think you'll agree.

Great tool for testing APIs

  • November 27, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Postman makes it easy for even non-developers to test url's when creating or testing APIs. It is the main tool I use for testing.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not the most intuitive user interface but there is a lot of help available until you get used to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have several vendors who have setup comprehensive APIs to share and update information remotely. We use postman to test APIs before moving into production within our regular programs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am not aware of any other tool available that makes it this easy to test any type of API, even for non-developers.

usefull even for non tech guy like myself

  • November 09, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the interface very much even if not clear at the first sight for a "noob" in IT like I am ;-)
Set up multiple environment is really usefull, as well as is the option to save them
All API call are listed the right way.
Clicking on a collection web link and opening the client right away with the good setup is very nice and very convenient.
What do you dislike about the product?
Download time to open the client is quite long (windows 10)
Setup of API to test is quite complicated for beginner non technical like I am, and require from a developper.
UI good but could be improved.
WYSIWYG could be improved
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it mainly for functional review and testing and this is quite usefull and convenient to do testing by myself without asking a developper (or at least, ask less to them)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
for testing purpose, can be good

Best API development tool for beginners

  • October 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Simple and easy to use. You dont have to struggle to install or use it. Easy to save and reuse the development you have done. Have been using this for the past 3 months and for a beginner it has provided what he would need.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to create multiple user accounts and switch between them. Sometime it becomes a pain. It would be good to open the tabs/windows that were opened last time when the app was closed. If you have a large set of tabs opened, it becomes difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to use is the first thing that comes to mind. When i used to use RestAPI extension in chrome it was not easy to read/write APIs. this one is very good.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Considering the chrome extension to test/develop APIs, it was becoming increasingly difficult in terms of ease of use. Postman solves this. Easy to use and also best one for beginners.

API Testing tool one of its kind

  • July 14, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Best things in postman

1. Sign up/in feature available for saving the test data
2. Can add certificate for testing https apis
3. Collection (group multiple requests together)
4. Sharing feature
5. History of previous requests
6. Interactive user interface(UI)

and much more....
What do you dislike about the product?
nothing to dislike apart from it hangs sometimes if a very long response is present for some api
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Previously Android or iOS developer used to blame server APIs for incorrect responses. But now all API are tested throughly before integration. It reduced final development time as testing was done in parallel.
