SwaggerHub simplifies API development for developers by providing a platform where they can efficiently create APIs without manually creating JSON or visual files. Developers can streamline the process of developing APIs and generating requests. SwaggerHub is a platform used for API design and management. Postman serves as a tool for creating and testing API requests. While Postman offers capabilities for scripting and automation, SwaggerHub focuses on defining APIs using the OpenAPI Specification, facilitating collaboration, and generating documentation automatically. While there may be ways to integrate Postman scripts into other testing tools like JMeter, such integration would typically require manual effort and customization. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We want some regulatory control to understand who is reading our documentation in the space where we are active. It would be interesting to see who is looking for our API documentation, so that would be one way to understand the users. If it supports public API documentation, it's public. You never know who is likely to use it. There are other smaller things like tagging APIs and various other details. The workflow for editing to offer OpenAPI is not as rich as we would like, so we did the editing with other tools. Additionally, you cannot include additional pages explaining certain workflows you can do with the API. These additional content pages would enhance the OpenAPI specification for the API. So these things are not significant, but they can make a difference when you don't have them.

The best feature of the product is that it is very easy to use. With SwaggerHub, users need not work a lot and insert tokens all the time as they do in Postman, which is obviously a big tool compared to SwaggerHub, which offers a lot of advantages. SwaggerHub is an easier tool to use than Postman.

Room for Improvement
