The project is very well documented. I like the fact that Mashape released the API as an Open Source product some other could benefit from it. It's also a very valuable addition to the API ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Kong lacks a User Interface which I think might speed up the process of getting familiar with Kong. It will makes sense far more intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
First of all it is easy to setup and start playing with. It is super important for microservices to have full control and it is easily deployable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
actually there is nothing that i can not already implement with kong, i just wish it was easier to implement plugins based on more popular languages like python, ruby or even javascript. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Open source nature.
Plugin approach and available built in plugins that cover the most of the basic necessities.

No built-in UI for non-programmers to access admin UI - For onboarding clients, APIs etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No worries about implementation, Takes very little time to setup and get things running. I was using way2sms api to send sms for my project work. I used their python library which was great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I was a bit doubtful about the auth system. which involved sending the sms text, and login credentials as url parameter in the GET request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The documentation is well-organized. Getting things running in Docker as a test was very easy. It has many potentially useful features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I understand Mashape had Cassandra running already, but it's a ridiculous requirement for a configuration store. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
