Kong API Platform Reviews - Page 18

Kong API Gateway is a fantastic product that supports the process of holistic API management excellently. It's super lightweight, especially with its plugin-based approach. Their support makes the daily work of API development much easier and saves many lines of code in your applications.

In addition, I have found the support to be very competent and helpful. So far we have always received quick and appropriate answers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, I have almost no criticisms. In some cases, the documentation could be more precise or more detailed. In the case of more complex architectures, the examples in the documentation could be presented more specifically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Kong is a great solution for deploying a cloud vendor-agnostic API Gateway. You can deploy it from a container or with the native binary. I am especially fond of the leveraging the Kong Ingress Controller in K8s as I find it to be on the simplest ways to handle both Ingress and Routing with the other Kong feature as frosting on the cake.

Kong's freemium model of open source can be frustrating for some, but in my opinion, it averages out in the end. You either have the internal team members on your roster to support the open-source product at enterprise scale or you leverage their team to support you at enterprise scale.

The infrastructure of Kong is it's the best thing which separates it from others.We can easily customise our business flows and also make the plugins customised and then we can deploy them easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Plugins can be made in multiple languages and some easier path for deployment can be made as it is hard to debug and test them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Kong is very deligate and light weight to use. No very high specifications of your system are used casue generally people might find difficult when their system specifications are low Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Everything is pretty nice, but can improve some in documentation on how to setup initially, and made some nice tutorials. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
