AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Postman excels in overall user satisfaction, boasting a significantly higher G2 Score compared to Intruder. Users appreciate its intuitive interface, which simplifies API testing and debugging, making it a favorite among developers and testers alike.
- According to verified reviews, Postman has a much larger volume of recent feedback, indicating a more active user base. With 148 recent reviews compared to Intruder's 7, users can feel more confident in the reliability of Postman's performance and support.
- Users say that Postman's powerful features, such as automated testing and the ability to organize APIs through collections and environments, make it a standout choice for managing complex request flows. This level of organization helps prevent confusion across different stages of development.
- Reviewers mention that while Intruder is praised for its ease of setup and execution, particularly with its autoscanner feature, it lacks the extensive capabilities that Postman offers for API testing. Users find Intruder's focus on security vulnerabilities helpful, but it may not meet the broader needs of API development.
- According to user feedback, both tools provide clarity in their findings, but Intruder shines in prioritizing critical vulnerabilities without overwhelming users with low-value information. This focus helps teams take decisive action to enhance their security posture.
- G2 reviewers highlight that while Intruder has a slightly higher star rating, the overall user experience and feature set of Postman make it a more comprehensive tool for API testing. Users appreciate the flexibility of testing both locally and online, which is a significant advantage for those needing mobility in their testing processes.
