Postman Demo - API Design
You can design your API specifications in Postman using OpenAPI, RAML, GraphQL, or SOAP formats. Postman’s schema editor makes it easy to work with specification files of any size, and it validates specifications with a built-in linting engine.
Postman Demo - API Documentation
Postman automatically generates documentation and supports markdown-enabled and machine-readable documentation. Docs automatically include request details and sample code. Share the docs with your team, in a public workspace, or in a dedicated portal.
Postman Demo - Public Workspaces
Public workspaces allow you to share your APIs publicly with anyone. You can use public workspaces to gather feedback on your APIs, onboard developers quickly, or just showcase your work.
Postman Demo - API Testing
Build and run functional, integration, and regression tests directly in Postman or as part of your CI/CD pipeline with Newman (Postman’s a command-line Collection Runner that enables you to run and test a collection directly from the command line).

"Effortlessly Test APIs with Versatile Features"
What do you like best about Postman?

I really value Postman for the wide range of API request options it offers, including numerous parameters and support for WebSocket, Socket.IO, and GraphQL. The platform is quick, dependable, and free, which I find especially appealing. I appreciate not having to create a frontend or rely on command-line tools like cURL to test APIs; Postman also allows me to convert API requests into code, which I find very helpful. The ability to easily share my workspace and requests adds even more convenience. Getting started was straightforward—just a simple sign-up and I was ready to begin.

What do you dislike about Postman?

The product could benefit from additional AI features, such as suggestions for improving APIs and implementing faster methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined API Testing with User-Friendly UI"
What do you like best about Postman?

I love Postman for its user-friendly UI, which makes my workflow much easier compared to using curl commands. The ability to segregate endpoints into different projects and functionalities is super convenient for me, eliminating the hassle of manually tracking them. I find it really helpful that I can categorize my endpoints and test them whenever needed. I also appreciate the feature that lets me validate JSON easily, ensuring I send the correct data and nothing breaks from my end while testing API endpoints. The workflow control and collaboration features are a big plus, allowing me to effortlessly communicate with team members for more collaborative work. Additionally, Postman enables smooth monitoring of regression testing to ensure APIs are up-to-date. I feel like Postman is always ahead with industry changes and provides continuous support.

"Reliable and Efficient Tool for API Development and Testing"
What do you like best about Postman?

Postman helps in testing the APIs during the course of development. This helps in analyzing the responses as well as authentication processes before features are put into production. Collections assist in arranging endpoints for various projects or environments. Workspaces enable collaboration between various developers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Large collections need to have a good structure to maintain a manageable and team-ready system. Some features related to collaboration and monitoring are only available to premium users. Performance degradation is possible when handling a large number of request interactions and environments. The system interface might be steep for new team members to learn.

"Essential Tool for API Testing with Minor Tweaks Needed"
What do you like best about Postman?

I kinda like the user experience of Postman. We can easily manage our API in a particular format, export them and import them easily. The main feature I liked is the two-way panel to see the request and response in one frame. It's the most important tool for my industry to test all the development we are doing at the testing stage. The initial setup was way easy and easier to learn too. I would give 10 out of 10 for this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Sometimes, I get frustrated when we duplicate our tabs and when we name it, it's all messed up. There should be an easier way to rename and identify and manage the names of tabs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless API Management with Stellar UI"
What do you like best about Postman?

I use Postman to manage my API collection and build and test RESTful APIs for our client apps. It makes it really easy for me to share request and response data with developers and show how the API architecture works. I love the impressive and easy-to-use user interface for setting API parameters. What I like most is the user interface, ease of use, collection sharing, and real-time API collection saving features. The predefined variables are a cherry on top to avoid redundant URL exposure. It's extremely easy to set up, and switching from manual API testing to Postman has brought better features and content sharing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Nothing for now from the existing features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great tool for API testing and debugging"
What do you like best about Postman?

I use Postman pretty much every day to test APIs and integrations. It makes it really easy to build requests, adjust payloads, and quickly view responses without having to write any extra code around it.

The collections feature is especially helpful for organising requests, and the ability to save and reuse them saves a lot of time. It’s also great for sharing with others when you’re working on the same integration, so everyone can stay aligned. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

It can start to feel a bit cluttered once you build up a lot of collections and environments, and navigating everything isn’t always as clean or intuitive as I’d like.

Some of the newer features also feel a little over the top if you’re mainly using it for straightforward API testing. I’ve noticed performance can dip slightly too as projects grow and things get bigger. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Powerful UI and Mock Server Capabilities Make Development Easy"
What do you like best about Postman?

Its Powerful User Interface and ability to build MCP servers. Also we can create mock servers as well in postman to make it easy for frontend developers. Also have a steep learning curve, means digging deep feels good ( personal fav). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Its is resource heavy and eats up a lot of RAM and CPU. Also free tiers are amazing, but as long as you're working for a company and it pays for it, its the best. One more dislike is one can only use JavaScript to write custom Scripts. As I am python developer, I would prefer Python in testing as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless API Testing and Collaboration with Postman"
What do you like best about Postman?

What I like best about Postman is how easy it makes testing and validating APIs. Creating requests, adding headers or parameters, and checking responses is straightforward, which helps speed up testing.

Collections and environments are especially useful for organizing APIs and switching between different setups like staging and production. It also makes collaboration easier since requests can be shared with the team, which reduces duplication and keeps testing consistent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

One thing I dislike about Postman is that it can feel a bit heavy at times, especially when working with large collections or many environments. The interface has a lot of options, which can be overwhelming for new users.

Some advanced features are locked behind paid plans, which can be limiting if you’re using the free version. Also, performance can occasionally slow down when syncing workspaces or running multiple requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Structured, User-Friendly UI with Powerful Scripting and Collection Runner"
What do you like best about Postman?

Its how structured it is. Very user friendly UI for editing the request body/header and different forms of request body/headers. Also to write post and pre request scripts. It provides collection runner facility. Its the best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

The new UI is little bit time taking to get adjusted to. When they had the best UI , why change it ? Also i feel , Postman should develop in load testing facility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Efficient API Management, Easy Setup"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like that Postman is easy to use and allows us to manage API collections effectively, which helps in organizing work. I find it provides clear and clean responses each time, and it's versatile in allowing us to format responses according to our requirements. I also appreciate the ability to make multiple collections, which saves me time and adapts to different environments easily. It's straightforward to set up by just downloading and logging in with Google. Postman also eliminates the need to remember commands, making it more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Sometimes it gets slow and if I want to use automation it does not fulfill my requirement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
