Provides high visibility and control with good traffic monitoring
Analytics is one of the areas needing enhancement, specifically more visibility and control over traffic to improve capacity management and high availability. The replication process between Master and Slave for disaster recovery takes too long. Dependencies on analytics impact the performance of the user interface, which should be separate. The complex setup process on-premises, especially with multi-node installations, could also be improved. Additional control in product declarations, based on operations like POST and GET, is needed.

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

"Apigee is stable, and we have had the system running on Apigee servers for more than four years without any stability issues."
"The use case which I have installed serves the intended purpose."
"It's stable."
"It provides secured incoming connections with data and cloud-based API functionality, which results in efficiency and reliability."
"It is easy to use from a developer perspective and a customer perspective; it is easy to set up, it is on Google Platform, and there are multiple deployment models they support, which is great."
"The most valuable feature of the current version of Apigee, such as Apigee Edge, is that the maintenance and scalability of the service are not our responsibility. As a SaaS platform, Google takes care of it, ensuring the system is stable. Another valuable feature is the ability to customize the platform extensively. We can add JavaScript functionality to cater to any use case that is not available out of the box."
"The scalability is incredible."
"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 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."
"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."
"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."
"Boomi allows for more secure URLs and easy customization of HTTP and HTTPS protocols, which I find very beneficial."
"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."
"Integrations take less time."
 

Cons

"The solution’s scalability could be improved."
"The integration could be improved within the solution. There is a need to pay more attention to this."
"The technical support could be improved because their response time is slow."
"The solution could add even more functionalities."
"Apigee is costlier compared to other solutions. For government organizations, especially those that do not want cloud-based solutions and prefer on-premise implementations, we recommend WSO2 due to its cost-effectiveness and suitability for private cloud environments."
"Apigee has a lot of components, which means that management will be a bit difficult."
"The cost of the solution is quite high."
"There is room for improvement in v-logging for each transaction."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"The product is really complex to manage."
"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."
"Overall, I would rate AtomSphere lower than solutions like APG or API Connect."
"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."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive solution."
"Its price is reasonable for the features they provide and the maturity of the platform."
"They need to work on the cost of the solution."
"The cost of the licensing is based on the number of API calls that are made."
"Apigee is slightly expensive, but again, it can depend on the type of usage. All things considered, it is slightly expensive."
"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."
"My clients pay for a license."
"The iicense is subscription-based."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"The price is reasonable."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
