## Reviews

### "Budding dev finds it useful" — 5.0/5

> **Stuart** | *9 July 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a budding developer I can try my endpoints without having to build any UI, saving me time and effort.
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes authentication can be a little frustrating for a beginner - bearer token implementation especially.
> 
> Used on and off for about 7 years, from testing other people's end points, testing integrations and starting my own journey in developement.

### "A Reliable All-in-One Tool for Modern API Development" — 5.0/5

> **Jamsly** | *12 December 2025* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Postman is an effective all-in-one tool for API development, supporting REST, GraphQL, and gRPC in a single interface. It streamlines the entire API workflow from building and testing requests to documentation and automation without requiring multiple tools. Environment management, scripting, and collaboration features make it efficient for both individual developers and teams.
> 
> **Cons**: The main limitation in for me is the lack of a fully functional offline mode. Many features depend on an active internet connection, which can be restrictive in low-connectivity environments or when working offline.
> 
> My overall experience with Postman has been very positive. After more than three years of regular use, it has proven to be a reliable and efficient tool for developing and testing multiple REST APIs, and more recently, a GraphQL API. Its consistency, versatility, and maturity make it a dependable part of my daily development workflow.

### "An Essential Tool for Any Developer Working with APIs" — 4.0/5

> **Tyler** | *31 August 2025* | Information Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It completely eliminates the guesswork in API development. I can test endpoints, debug responses, and automate entire workflows without ever leaving the app. The collaboration features are a lifesaver – sharing a collection with a teammate is instant, and everyone always has the latest version. It’s made working with APIs faster and way more reliable.
> 
> **Cons**: The app can be a serious memory hog, especially with large workspace or long-running sessions. I also miss the simplicity of the older versions sometimes; the constant push toward the web app and new features can make it feel bloated. The learning curve for advanced scripting is also pretty steep.
> 
> Extremely positive. It’s one of those tools that feels indispensable once you’re used to it. Despite some performance quirks, it’s the gold standard for API work for a reason. It just works.

### "Useful for API and Integration tests" — 4.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *9 April 2026* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Postman was easy to install and convenient with its Team option. We often used a shared harness to hit our backend and do api testing
> 
> **Cons**: There was some flakiness with retrieving jwt auth tokens (client credentials as well). Often times we would need to manually reset the tokens.
> 
> Overall, it has saved our team a lot of time. AI is becoming more and more of a substitute for Postman now, but at least for the next little while, it will continue to be useful for API and integration testing.

### "FRUSTRATING, Mandatory registration \!" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *30 July 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is a good software, provides quick results for testing APIs and debugging things. Somewhat easy to use. I didn't need to read any documentation to use it.
> 
> **Cons**: FORCED ACCOUNT CREATION \! For testing a simple API they want to track your account. ONE OF THE WORST USER EXPERIENCE \!\!\!\!\! I have been looking for a replacement for a long long time.
> 
> FRUSTRATING experience \! I would never ever recommend anyone to create an account to test something as simple as API. My usage is about once a month in last 12 months and forcing me to login is something I DO NOT WANT. Since they DO not have any feedback system, I am wasting so time to find a place to send them a message. POSTMAN used to be great please remove mandatory registration.
