Easy to set up. You just need to provide your database's connection info, and you can create an API within minutes. Also, you can create an API for so many things like database, file systems, email services ...etc. And I am particularly intriguted by the potential to do data meshing where you create seperate APIs for each of our departments' databases, and then you can perform data join in real-time during the serving layer in DreamFactory. This make it very agile as the traditional way to join data from different departments can take months. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At the time when I tried using it, Google Cloud Platform and Impala were not supported yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No coding, ready to deploy, speedy APIs are the best thing about DreamFactory. Absolutely loved it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
At the moment I can't find major downsides to the platform, however, it might get difficult to debug for complicated processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It has allowed us to create a single data layer that unifies all our underlying platforms. It does this elegantly, with consistent architecture, taking care of authentication and caching.
DreamFactory is itself an API, and this has allowed us to use the product not only for our own business, but also OEM'd as part of an on-premise solution we sell to our customers. We have found it easy to package and configure into portable Docker containers.
Although DreamFactory comes with its own database, we have deploiyed it to run on Postgresql, thus allowing it to fit into our backup and sysadmin processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is currently nothing I dislike about DreamFactory. I cannot fault the platform in any way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They provided an automated, managed, authenticated API layer on top of almost all our databases and systems. Great for any teams looking to scale up and out, as well as the ability to offload hard but required infrastructure like rate limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When first starting out, the trial period feels rather short. I wish it could be a bit longer since there is a bunch of config required on both sides. Also, offering and pricing could be tailored better for smaller companies and developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When I found DreamFactory, my top priority was to find a solution that would support the needs of an enterprise API strategy with the flattest possible learning curve. They exceeded all expectation in that category as well as others such as cost and customer service. There is a lot to love with this company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
That I spun my wheels trying to do it without them for so long! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It allows quick integration and communication with various systems according to the modern standard. The support is beneficial and goes beyond a minimal effort to answer the questions (further links, ideas, approaches). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Rarely longer response times (which can probably be shortened if necessary for an additional charge and is perhaps related to my time zone). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Simplifies architecture, speeds up development times. When combined with our Hotstone product, this really brings to life the concept of (near) zero coding. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing to dislike. It is highly intuitive and makes life easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to install and use, you can expose any kind of legacy and connect as well easily to any brand new technology.
Commitment of sales and techs from Dreamfactory, fully engage in the success of your implementation is very enjoyable as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
nothing at this moment - everything's fine so far Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This tool is basically an open source platform, which offers different benefits that differentiate it from other similar software, for example; Security is critical and indispensable for APIs, but DreamFactory makes it easy enough for its users, it has specifications that applications must follow to communicate with each other, and the user interface facilitates human-software interaction. This tool has a type of API that turns out to be innovative, this because it provides users with all the essential middleware content so that they can create continuous and powerful connections between a wide number of systems, without worrying about technical or infrastructure scopes. The software allows you to attach your systems or databases to the system itself, which makes DreamFactory a fully flexible and automated function tool, the latter could also be highlighted as being compatible with different equipment and operating systems.

I had a few mishaps to set up the app at first, despite having read and gone through the manuals over and over and watching video tutorials on how to use it, it took me longer than estimated, plus updates are usually very invasive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
