Apigee empowers effective API management while needing improvements in technical support
There is room for improvement with Apigee as OPDK private cloud enhancements have stopped, focusing only on Apigee hybrid and Apigee X, with Google no longer adding new features to OPDK private cloud. I am not currently utilizing AI in the private cloud with Apigee, but I'm unsure about hybrid and Apigee X.

Has required significant improvements due to limited features but offers simple implementation and good support
Boomi AtomSphere API Management has very few features. If you ask me to name the top two, I would say MuleSoft and Apigee, as it depends on the customer-to-customer use cases. After those, WSO2, Kong, and whether you say Informatica API Manager or Boomi AtomSphere API Management, they stand with only three out of ten features which are essential for API management. All the features that Apigee has, they need to add. All the features that MuleSoft has, they need to add. It is not a simple task. The problem is that they lack features. It is not their performance. There are many features to mention. When you take and compare all the features that Apigee has and all the features that MuleSoft has, they need to implement those features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's good for development, we like that the solution offers easy integration, it has a good UI and is user-friendly, the solution scales well, and it's stable."
"The ease of creating policies has been the most useful of the solution's features. It's a quick ramp-up time. It's easy for our support staff to implement the policies in the API management layer."
"The stability of the solution is good, there aren't issues surrounding bugs or glitches, we don't find that it crashes or freezes, and it's pretty reliable."
"Support is good."
"Technical support has been decent."
"We are pretty happy with their service overall."
"Apigee has better scalability than WSA."
"Apigee is the heart of the architectural design for building an integration layer in our digital transformation projects. Organizations need an integration layer to connect their legacy backend services with the external world, such as Fintechs. This layer must be secure, not just a simple pass-through or gateway."
"Boomi allows for more secure URLs and easy customization of HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which I find very beneficial."
"We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration."
"AtomSphere API Management is a simple platform that's easy to use. If you're using it on-prem, there's a little learning curve."
"The product's stability is good."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"Integration is straightforward. There is no issue with it."
"The stability of the solution is good."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
 

Cons

"Apigee is not a solution compatible with public clouds, making it one of its shortcomings where improvements are required."
"More documentation on the Open Banking Standard will help."
"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."
"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."
"The cost of this solution could be improved and it would be better if it were on private cloud."
"Integration should be improved."
"The initial setup is not straightforward, particularly for hybrid solutions."
"Apigee is demanding on the infrastructure so the setup cost is very high for an on-premises deployment."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management has very few features. If you ask me to name the top two, I would say MuleSoft and Apigee, as it depends on the customer-to-customer use cases."
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
"To some degree, you need to know what type or amount of API you are creating - whether it's a rest API or web service API. You need to know ETL in order to really get the most out of Boomi."
"The API management has room for improvement."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"The product is really complex to manage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The iicense is subscription-based."
"The cost of the licensing is based on the number of API calls that are made."
"Since it was acquired by Google, we can get a license based on our requirements and the cost level will depend on cloud access and support."
"It is a bit on the expensive side. Its licensing cost is a bit high, and that's where we've seen people going back on their decisions."
"In Latin America, Apigee is expensive. It's not for small businesses; it's more for big businesses."
"The cost increases as the usage increases."
"The prices are comparable."
"Apigee is expensive and not cost-effective. On a scale of one to ten, I would rate it an eight for the high cost. The changes individuals need to make on their side are costly."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"The price is reasonable."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
