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

"Support is good."
"The central monitoring feature is the most valuable. It also provides security for the APIs and high availability for our use cases. Apigee is the best product in the industry in comparison to other API management solutions. It helps in fast development, which is a top point. It also supports a lot of industry standards and has excellent documentation."
"The ease of creating policies has been the most useful of the solution's features; it's a quick ramp-up time and it's easy for our support staff to implement the policies in the API management layer."
"We are achieving five thousand TPS (Throughput per second) on peak load, and managing thousands of proxies against K8s cluster services."
"The usability is one of the best aspects of the product and it is broadly used in different functional areas, almost in all the contexts that we have."
"Its customer service is good."
"A very functional solution."
"The drag-and-drop and click-through functionalities, alongside minimal code requirements, make Apigee valuable. It is intuitive and user-friendly."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a good product for integrating with Boomi as a backend service."
"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."
"Integration is straightforward. There is no issue with it."
"Boomi allows for more secure URLs and easy customization of HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which I find very beneficial."
"The product's stability is good."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
"AtomSphere is tightly integrated into the Boomi iPaaS platform. And Boomi has been augmenting AtomSphere API Management for the past couple of years so version 2.0 is better than 1.0."
"The stability of the solution is good."
 

Cons

"Access restrictions can be improved. For example, you can't restrict access to some people or some groups."
"Role-based access management needs to be improved. It would also be nice if the solution could be integrated with code versioning systems like Git/Bitbucket."
"We do not have control over the installation."
"Could be more user friendly."
"I am still struggling to understand how we can use Apigee as a hybrid system."
"The cost of the solution is quite high."
"We found a glitch in Apigee, and we raised it with them: It's the response overlapping from the API with high traffic."
"The solution can be improved by simplifying the account creation process."
"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."
"It's difficult to integrate the on-prem application with the Dell Boomi Cloud. We have to check to ensure the Dell domain engine is running. It just requires some service endpoints from our on-prem application to connect to Dell Boomi Cloud to make it available to integrate. It would be better if AtomSphere API Management were offered as a purely SaaS application, so I wouldn't need an on-prem component to make it available. We could make a test call or provide some connection parameters. That should enable it to pull the data."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"The solution must provide more AI services."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Apigee is slightly expensive, but again, it can depend on the type of usage. All things considered, it is slightly expensive."
"I would like to see the implementation of further options for billing because as it is now, the opportunities you have in terms of a package are limited."
"Apigee has several different licenses you can obtain depending on your needs."
"Based on your usage of the APIs you can take a decision to go with either an on-cloud or OPDK version. Get in touch with the sales representatives of Apigee."
"Its price is reasonable for the features they provide and the maturity of the platform."
"Pricing options need to be chosen on a case-by-case basis."
"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."
"Apigee is subject to licensing fees."
"The price is reasonable."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
