I currently use Postman but havent had problems yet, though next week I'm joining an API crew. Your opinion seems strong; could you tell me where you ran into pitfalls with it I should look out for?
- smt88 4y agoPostman is a classic victim of venture funding. It was a great, simple, useful product, and then they had to become a rapid-growth business. The app has been buggy since its first major overhaul, and it now also has incredible feature bloat. It's hard to find what you want, and the UI is constantly pushing you to make use of features you don't want to use. It no longer works well as a scratchpad because they want you to organize everything into a full API IDE, which is not something I want or need.
- porker 4y agoAgree with all. There are also inconsistencies between Postman running in the browser and the desktop app. I documented a 3rd party API in Postman desktop and the called me all sorts of names because it didn't work. Postman support told them to download the desktop client and then it worked.
