I like the available support and features currently they are offering, one of the best things I like is the available plugins and the option to create your plugin so technically you are not missing anything and you have complete control to API.
The data transformation feature is also very useful and gives you the flexibility to connect/use any type of data source. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Lack of training and industry-standard examples are missing or difficult to navigate. You can't use plugins in the free version. Tooling is missing, I think Kong should launch Kong Developer Studio or similar kind of IDE. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is easy to understand. It is secure and procide good performance via load balancer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
