Featured Reviews

Dinesh Agrawalla - PeerSpot reviewer
Requires minimal configuration and easy-to-launch
I would like to improve the restrictions and security elements of the solution, as there are certain configurations that are not currently supported. There are certain restrictions that cannot be implemented without web access. In the next release, I would like a feature that can validate requests and filter out any jQuery injections. Additionally, I would like to prioritize these requests. I've noticed that such features are usually not available in web applications.
Sagar SampadMall - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides robust security for financial transactions and protects the ERP database from direct exposure
My main feedback is about the account management. I feel they should connect with clients more frequently, beyond just selling the product. They should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products. My main suggestion is focused solely on the account management approach, specifically fostering closer and more proactive client relationships. So, the pricing could also be bit improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution is solid, robust, and scalable."
"One of the most valuable aspects of API Gateway is its native integration with AWS services."
"It provides the flexibility to configure, switch, and manage configurations through cloud permissions or performance settings."
"It's easy to integrate and provide support for existing AWS services if I use the AWS API gateway."
"It's flexible. It was valuable."
"The best thing about Amazon API Gateway is that it can authenticate and authorize requests without going to our back end."
"Integrating API Gateway with other AWS services was easy. It worked out of the box, so it worked perfectly."
"It is a stable solution."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."

Cons

"There are certain restrictions that cannot be implemented without web access."
"There are features lacking in API Gateway, such as the timeout settings, which currently are set at 29 seconds."
"We would like to see more UI-based monitoring."
"Like most Amazon services, and this one's the same, you're expected to effectively do your own support, and any other support is by emails, so it's quite limited."
"I believe better governance and monitoring features would be beneficial."
"The solution could improve signature validation."
"If I take into consideration the past three to four years, during which I used the tool, I would say that some missing and external configurations were not possible in the product, and it was a bit difficult to manage."
"A lower price would definitely be an improvement."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We use all open-source technology."
"Amazon API Gateway is a very cheaply priced product."
"I am satisfied with the price."
"It is somewhat costly, particularly when it introduces server-related features, which are often scheduled on our end."
"I rate the tool's price as seven on a scale of one to ten, where one means low price and ten means high price."
"The product is expensive."
"The product is a little expensive."
"There are no licensing fees."
"Oracle is not a cheap solution and it is not affordable for all of our clients in Portugal."
