Amandeep Pawar - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Engineer at Airy Software Technologies Private Limited
Centralized API gateway has improved microservice security and provided deep traffic analytics
Apigee's API gateway could be improved. There are some limitations for high throughputs, which we can address. Overall, Apigee is a robust API management platform where we can configure centralized traffic management, but there are a few areas for improvement. The developer experience could be more intuitive, especially for configurations and complex API proxies and policies. Debugging production issues can sometimes be challenging, so more detailed diagnostic and easier-to-use troubleshooting tools would be valuable. The analytics dashboard could offer more customization and deeper insights without requiring additional configuration. Simplifying pricing and licensing would make Apigee more accessible for smaller organizations. I would like better support for cloud-native deployments, Kubernetes integrations, and AI-assisted policy recommendations. I would also like to see AI-assisted troubleshooting, more customizable analytics and developer portal, better enterprise documentation, easier policy configuration, and a simplified licensing model to enhance both the developer experience and day-to-day operations.

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."
"Highly scalable from any initial topology to horizontal extension"
"Customer support for Apigee is fantastic; I receive responses within a minute, which is very useful."
"From two or three years back using it to now, it's quite fast."
"Its customer service is good."
"Before using Apigee, we used to have file transfer integrations; with Apigee in place, we are directly integrating or exposing our APIs to our partners who can access our services directly in real time."
"This solution is much easier to set up compared to any of the other API gateway solutions."
"If you have very complex scenarios where you are trying to embark on a cloud journey and you still have systems on-premise or some systems are hosted on some other cloud and you want to do an integration, Apigee is really good."
"The product's stability is good."
"The user interface, which we use to create the integration, basically has the data structures collected, is pretty easy to navigate, is a drag and drop style of working, and there is very little code required so the creation of the endpoints is very simple."
"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."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"Integrations take less time."
"Integration is straightforward. There is no issue with it."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
 

Cons

"It needs predictive analysis of consumption."
"iPaaS is something that we would like to see. For example, MuleSoft is kind of an integrated platform as a service (iPaaS), and it provides a lot of out-of-the-box connectors and other such things. This is where Apigee lacks. I'm not sure if that's the roadmap for Apigee, but any improvements on those lines would be helpful where things become easier to implement."
"The technical support could be improved because their response time is slow."
"I don't have any notes for improvement."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"Apigee could do more to make users aware of what is available in the add-ons."
"The solution can be improved by simplifying the account creation process."
"We found a glitch in Apigee, and we raised it with them: It's the response overlapping from the API with high traffic."
"Overall, I would rate AtomSphere lower than solutions like APG or API Connect."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
"The product is really complex to manage."
"The API management has room for improvement."
"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."
"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."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution’s pricing could be more competitive."
"Apigee is subject to licensing fees."
"It is not suited for small companies. It's expensive."
"The cost increases as the usage increases."
"The current version of Apigee is not too expensive, but we are currently in talks with Google to understand their roadmap for Apigee X. However, we anticipate that with the introduction of Apigee X, the pricing will likely increase."
"The prices are comparable."
"Apigee is slightly expensive, but again, it can depend on the type of usage. All things considered, it is slightly expensive."
"The iicense is subscription-based."
"The price is reasonable."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
