The solution lets you integrate multiple environments and their features. Either the tool’s pro or premium version lets you do the merge and pull request for the Git directly."

"What is most valuable for me is that we can create and share collections between the team members."
"The user-interface is very good."
"Good at simulating the API code from a fictitious client application to check API behavior."
"The developers put the API in a common workspace which is a nice feature. It makes things much easier and faster to start testing."
"In Postman, we have an option to directly import a call, make it a Postman collection, and execute it in a batch. This feature is very useful. It saves a lot of time. The manual effort is also reduced when we can just pick it in a Postman collection and then run and execute it to get the results."
"I would like them to add features, such as caching and mediation policies."
"Drag and drop of features would be more beneficial, rather than manually working on the configuration and updates."
"The analytical aspect of it could be better. I think it is fair if Apigee lets you configure some of the metrics of the key details you want to monitor in terms of analytics."
"One feature they have to invest time into is the developer portal they use."
"I don't have any notes for improvement."

"Postman is a bit more of a complex tool, making it an area where improvements can be made."
"Postman quality assurance could improve when doing tests."
"The scalability of the solution can be improved."
"To get this email reporting function, we have to integrate Postman with Newman. If the two are not integrated, we won't be getting all these things in one group."

"I rate the support for Postman a four out of five."
