Stoplight has a simple interface, just what i expect from an open api platform. It's easy to create, sync and update documentation. Git integration and hooks work well, and the CLI is simple to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is no async api option. The CLI does not allow us to edit the files after the upload has happened. You can not sync back files to github. Would be nice if there was a 2-way file sync. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is simple and easy to get the documentation ready for your users. We were looking for a 3rd party tool to launch our developer portal, and we were able to do it quickly. The platform is growing in the right direction, and indeed it would add more helpful features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While we were creating the docs, it had few limitations and was automatically changing the indent by itself. But it's resolved for now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a simple tool to learn and easy to install. It is a great tool to create API mocks and to test apis. It is a API suite which helps in developing, managing and testing APIs. It has inbuy integration with GitHub and it is quite similar to Postman and provides multiple workspaces to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There could be more integrations with different tools which are used on day to day basis. For example it is missing integration with Microsoft active directory. The UI can be improved as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Excellent UI, easy code snippets, easy to get started with, good mocking tools.
Good integration with Jenkins allows easy deployments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Stability is the biggest con. Internally we have discussed multiple times to have a self hosted version because the platform goes down from time to time. Performance is also an issue as speed is quite slow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Best at easily documenting apis by simply importing a swagger file. Shows you where errors occur in your file. Syncs with GitHu files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Caching issues. Must delete Stoplight cache occasionally for things to pull from GitHub. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The visual editor and the clean user interface makes it easy do set up the docs. The support is also great and will find a solution for every single problem if there is any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
the pricing model could be better to match different needs with a small addon rather than a +200% plan upselling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Stoplight allows me to manage Open API, JSON Schema, AsyncAPI, and markdown documents locally. It is the best thing I appreciate and like in the Stoplight tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As per my current requirements and usage, I have not faced any difficulty or issues with the Stoplight API tool, but I am still trying to improve the setup process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Compared to the previous version, we had an improvement in the usability and visibility of publications Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I didn't notice significant improvements compared to the previous version Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With ui you can create open api specs and if you don't use you have to write yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not many themes at the UI. And sometimes the diff thing is not working well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Stoplight provides an excellent API design and documentation platform, unlike anything else available in the market.
It is useful to:
1. Developers because they can export the OpenAPI file and import it into their development environment. They are also able to access API mocking to test their implementation.
2. Business and Product teams to be able to access business/functional requirements (beyond just the technical API specifications).
Stoplight, by far is the most progressive and comprehensive technical design and documentation platform we have come across. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are opportunities to improve certain user experience features, such as being able to drag and drop to reorder the menu of pages/APIs and, within particular models or methods, the order of fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
