Apigee Reviews

One feature I found most valuable in Apigee is its simplicity. All features remain the same in all of the API tools, and I have experience with IBM API Connect and Apigee, but Apigee is easier to work with, plus the learning curve is not that steep.

Another thing I like about this solution is that the support is really good, and this gives Apigee advantage over other providers.

I like the development feature of Apigee. You will find it easier to work with Apigee than IBM API Connect.

We found a glitch in Apigee, and we raised it with them: It's the response overlapping from the API with high traffic.

They have been working on that, and they have shared a patch with us, but I'm not sure if that is publicly available for all users. It was made available to our organization: one single patch of Apigee.

I've been using Apigee for over two years, and I've used it in the last 12 months.

This product is is stable.

Apigee is a scalable product.

Technical support for Apigee is very good.

I used IBM API Connect, but found it easier to work with Apigee.

I evaluated IBM API Connect.

I'm both a user and an integrator of Apigee.

We have deployments both on-premises and via cloud. We use both, like Google SaaS and the on-premises solution.

We are a consultant for different organizations. Some organizations prefer on-premises deployment, with everything on their private cloud, and this means they use the older version of Apigee. Some organizations use the latest version because they're using Google SaaS directly.

My advice to people who are looking into implementing Apigee in their organization: If it fits your budget, then it is a good product. If it fits into your ecosystem, e.g. you are in that ecosystem, not in IBM or other CA-based ones, Apigee is something you can go for. It is a good platform.

I haven't worked with CA, and there are others, e.g. MuleSoft, so I can't comment on how Apigee compares with those competitors, but compared to IBM API Connect, Apigee is a good one.

I'm rating Apigee eight over ten. There's still room for improvement, so it's an eight for me.

We use it for API monitoring purposes, and for the management of KPM metrics around the APIs.

They need to work on the cost of the solution. But again, it depends on the use case. The use case which I have installed serves the intended purpose. I don't have any negative feedback on it.

We have been using the solution for the last six or seven years.

I am satisfied with the stability of the solution.

I have around 500-2000 users using the solution in my company. It serves the purpose of my use case.

There is no real technical support unless you have a problem with the servers or something gets lost. It is only when the service is down or there is some issue, there'll be a reply from them depending on your subscription.

The biggest advantage of the competitors over Apigee is cost. I would advise you to be careful due to its cost.

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We use this for intuition with a third party.

It is easy to deploy, configure, and monitor the APA.

The hardware is extremely high compared to other similar products. The entire user across all the layers should be singly authenticated through an external authentication system.

I have been using Apigee for the past four to five years.

It is stable.

It is scalable.

Technical support is available twenty-four hours a day. When it is a critical issue, they come online and support us. They take real-time access to our system and support us in solving the problem. It can take time, but they are able to solve the problem.

Our initial setup and deployment took six months with the help of a partner.

Apigee is easy to deploy, configure and maintain.

I would rate Apigee a nine out of ten.

I mainly use Apigee to allow partner applications to consume services outside their organizations, for security, and for creating API proxies.

Apigee's best features are flexibility and breadth of capabilities.

I've been using Apigee for three to four years.

Apigee is stable.

Apigee's scalability is one of its main advantages.

Apigee's technical support is really good, and they have a community forum where we can ask questions and get help.

We previously used WSO2.

The initial setup for the on-prem solution is a little complex, but the hybrid setup is very easy because detailed steps are provided. The hybrid version takes one or two days to install, but the on-prem version takes a minimum of a week.

For on-premises, a consultant is required to install.

Apigee is a good product, and I would recommend it to others. I would rate Apigee eight out of ten.

We use the Apigee platform for analytics, specifically for retail customers. We have used this solution to enhance the capability of some of our legacy systems. We have 300 users on this platform. 

One of the best parts of this solution is the implementation as we did not need to use code or out-of-box policies. When it comes to the cloud-based architecture, there is a high level of reliability.

When it comes to the rate limit, we don't have a specific category for rate limits for a particular customer.

I have been using Apigee for more than seven years.

This is a stable solution. 

This is a scalable solution. 

The customer support for this solution is very good. We have received immediate responses from the technical team.

Neutral

The initial setup is not that straightforward. 

This solution offers annual licensing.

I would recommend this solution for API management and is one of the best on the market.

I would rate it an eight out of ten.

I use it at home to scan my local drive for malware or viruses. 

I like Apigee's automatic plates.

Apigee's user interface could be more straightforward and have more options. Also, it would be nice if it were ready to work out of the box without so much configuration. Regarding features I'd like to see, they could add self-recovery from the last hour, the last day, etc.

I've used Apigee for around five years.

The stability and performance are both pretty good. However, I have an FFD disc, so I don't see the scans anymore. They're all done overnight.

The version I'm using isn't scalable. It's not the professional version. 

I have never called Apigee support. I haven't had any issues.

Installing Apigee is very simple and only takes two or three minutes.

The home version is completely free.

I rate Apigee seven out of 10. It's a good tool, but not a fantastic tool. I use it because it's simple, it automatically updates, and It hasn't given me any issues. 

We are a solution provider and Apigee is one of the API management products that we implement for our customers. Most of our clients want to expose their APIs to their consumers and they need to have a generic infrastructure for it. At the same time, they want it to be scalable as well as highly secure.

We have been able to fulfill all of our use cases with Apigee.

Tracing in Apigee is a very good feature.

The scalability and performance are both very good.

As it is now, the rotation of certificates is a manual task and is something that can be improved. It only has to be done once every two or three years, but I would state that there is still room for improvement.

We have been working with Apigee for five years.

The last time we had a disturbance was a year and a half ago, and it was due to an AWS infrastructure failure. Apigee was not to blame for it. For the most part, it has a very high availability.

We have some very large customers that make a billion API calls a month and we have never heard any complaints about scalability. It's not an issue.

About half of our clients are mid-sized companies, with approximately 5,000 employees, whereas the other half is made up of companies that are bigger than that. 

We have engaged multiple times with Google's technical support. I can't say that they're necessarily very quick in their response. It can take a couple of days. That said, they're very knowledgeable and to the point. In the five years that we have been working with them, we have built a big network with them.

We use several similar solutions including Mulesoft, SAP, and Azure. Mulesoft is the one that we use the least and try to replace it with other systems. Out of ten customers, we have two using Azure, six using Apigee, and the final two using SAP.

The initial setup is very straightforward and we perform it as a service for our clients. Normally, it takes us about a week to get it fully operational with all of the rules in place, and fully onboarded.

When it comes to deployment, we have variety with our customers. 60% of them will use a cloud-based deployment, while the remaining 40% work on-premises. We are now just engaging the first customers using the new hybrid model from Apigee.

We perform the deployment and maintenance of Apigee for our clients.

My advice for anybody who is implementing Apigee is to use it as an API platform, and not as a full-stack integration platform.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We are customers of Apigee. 

This solution offers a lot of flexibility in its features. Other tools like IBM Data Power have limited capability when it comes to features like data control, VPN management and monitoring. 

I think the portal could offer a better user experience. It's functional and does what it's supposed to but it's not user friendly. I'd also like to see better routing features. Currently routing is limited and the setup is complicated. From a VPN management perspective, I think we would like to have more user training available, particularly for advanced users, without having to pay. There is generally a learning curve for advanced usage and configuration, and troubleshooting is a steeper curve. Whenever we have an issue, we're dependent on support. We'd like our personnel to be better trained by Apigee so we can handle issues in-house. 

I've been using this solution for six months. 

The solution is stable and, from an enterprise perspective, it can handle volume which is important for us. 

We have good support from Google. They provide onsite support and everything is available to us. We are happy with the support.

The initial setup is quite easy. 

I recommend this solution. Apigee offers a month free usage so you can play around and explore the product and then make a decision. We had a good opportunity to test things out before purchasing the solution. 

I rate this solution an eight out of 10.
