Transforms internal APIs with secure, manageable cloud compatibility
Our primary use case for Microsoft Azure API Management is to front internal APIs and make them cloud-compatible. It adds extra authentication on top of old APIs and acts as a proxy towards internal APIs, providing a single endpoint that can manage multiple APIs behind it. This is particularly…

Provides robust security for financial transactions and protects the ERP database from direct exposure
We primarily use Oracle API for the financial database to deal with all the financial things. In our case, it's primarily used for integrating with financial databases and managing all the financial transactions. We've integrated it with REST APIs from banks to enable payments. So, if a payment…

"Everything is already available and ready to operate without a lot of preparation work."
"Azure API is scalable."
"The ease of setting up a new solution is the most valuable feature. It's very easy to set up a new solution and to deploy it to production."
"The documentation and configuration of APIs."
"Azure API Management is an API gateway that can be used for different purposes, for example, to monetize APIs."
"The most valuable features for us are security and centralization."
"It is very secure, easy to manage, and easy to configure. It is a web-based API. Moreover, we get direct support from Oracle guys."
"The initial setup isn't overly difficult."
"The security, the authentication, and the publishing qualities are great."
 

Cons

"Technical support could be more helpful and responsive."
"The solution's data mapping and orchestration are very code-intensive or require callouts to external systems."
"Other products have more customization options."
"The solution’s security and performance could be improved."
"I would like to see more integration with other platforms, as well as increased security."
"Latency is an area that needs improvement, especially for multi-tenant applications."
"Previously, our company's cloud services were shut down, and we used to take more time to update services, so such issues are areas where improvements are needed."
"They need to work on the third party integrations."
"We'd like it if they could reduce the cost without sacrificing on features."
"Oracle should actively seek feedback and tailor the approach to client needs. It shouldn't always be about pushing additional products."
"From an administration and developer point of view, the user interface and user experience are not great."
"Before gaining experience with the product, I found that it was not simple to use and things took longer to do than I had anticipated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Because of our partner relationship, our pricing is pretty decent. But in general, if I compare pricing, I think the initial offer that we got from Microsoft until the relationship kicked in was more expensive than AWS. There were some unexpected expenses because we had to pause. This was due to our inexperience and because we were doing this significant public cloud migration for the first time. We were using SAP on a public cloud for the first time."
"Microsoft is competitively priced."
"We are paying standard fees to use Microsoft Azure API Management."
"It's an expensive solution"
"This is an expensive solution."
"I would describe the tool's price as being in the mid-range category."
"There are no additional costs above the main license."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"Oracle is not a cheap solution and it is not affordable for all of our clients in Portugal."
