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

"Apigee is very easy to use, and you can code in any language."
"The most valuable features are scalability and technical support."
"Apigee provides good documentation."
"The scalability is incredible."
"From two or three years back using it to now, it's quite fast."
"Apigee brings a lot of projects, including development projects; for example, when an oil company is swiping a card in the palm station for payment of oil, as it swipes, it hits the database, and Apigee manages the entire process with the help of dedicated proxies, and managing those proxies is very easy, and Apigee makes proxy management very simple."
"It nice and easy for the clients and those using the product to access the product's help resources."
"It has a very efficient logging system which is easy to maintain."
"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."
"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."
"Integrations take less time."
"Integration is straightforward. There is no issue with it."
"We can create APIs straightforwardly and quickly and build jobs for data migration."
"We can develop almost any interface that we need."
 

Cons

"The company needs to better support webhooks. It used to support webhooks and their policies and they have since stopped. They had some issues in the product and they abandoned the support for them. It's not come back since."
"For Apigee, I think licensing is on a monthly basis. The cost increases as the usage increases; it's higher than many competitors."
"The solution tends to hide the limitations to keep selling the product."
"An area for improvement would be to provide more information while troubleshooting."
"Could be more user friendly."
"When there is an update on a new version or an automatic update, you have to be present and double-check that the update is reflected in the environment with no issues."
"The integration could be improved within the solution; there is a need to pay more attention to this."
"Maintaining and deploying revisions need to be more defined."
"The API management has room for improvement."
"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."
"The solution must provide more AI services."
"Most of the basic functionality is there in Boomi, but APG is a more feature-rich solution."
"From an improvement perspective, the price could be cheaper."
"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."
"Scalability is an area where Boomi lacks."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management can be improved in terms of threshold management and policy management."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not suited for small companies. It's expensive."
"The solution is a bit expensive. It's not for organizations in the early stages of their lifecycle but is more suited for mid- to enterprise-level platforms. Pricing varies by deployment model, with SaaS being the cheapest, costing around $100,000 per year for a subscription. For hybrid and on-prem deployments, the price increases. The on-prem model includes a license and additional installation and configuration professional service costs, which can be at least $40,000 to $60,000 for the initial setup. While it's not cheap, it offers long-term value and can be worthwhile."
"They need to work on the cost of the solution."
"You do not necessarily pay for the license. The cloud solution is based more on transactions. So, you pay for it either way."
"Apigee is slightly expensive, but again, it can depend on the type of usage. All things considered, it is slightly expensive."
"It is more expensive when you compare to open-source products or other vendors."
"We have a contract for three years. I don't know the cost."
"Its price is reasonable for the features they provide and the maturity of the platform."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management gives customers a good price. Price-wise, the product is good."
"Boomi AtomSphere API Management is a cheap product."
"The price is reasonable."
"The product can get very expensive quickly if you connect to multiple databases."
