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.

"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.

"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.

"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.

"Streamlined API Testing with Great Scripting Capabilities"
What do you like best about Postman?

I use Postman to test APIs and debug them. It tells me if an API works or if it has any issues and gives reasons why it fails, which makes debugging faster. I like its very clean UI that helps keep APIs well organized. It's also very powerful with built-in scripting and tests. This helps in automating repetitive tasks like validating responses, catching breaking changes early without manual testing, and saving a lot of time. Additionally, the initial setup was very easy and straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

I find Postman's pricing to be expensive and I think it could be reduced. Sometimes the app feels heavy or slower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick API Testing but Slow at Times"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like using Postman because it helps me quickly verify my API endpoints without having to write extra frontend code, making debugging requests and responses much faster and more reliable. The ability to send requests and inspect responses all in one place is what I like most about it. This feature speeds up API testing and makes debugging straightforward. I can quickly see headers, status codes, and response data, which helps me catch issues early and makes development more efficient without additional setup. Plus, it was wonderfully easy to set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Postman can feel heavy and slow at times, especially when I only need to test simple endpoints. A lighter or faster mode for basic API checks would improve the experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes API testing faster and easier across environments"
What do you like best about Postman?

postman makes API testing very easy even when the workflows get complex. Creating requests, organizing them into collections and switching between environments like dev, QA, and production is smooth and saves a lot of time. I like how environment variables and prerequest scripts help avoid repetitive work such as manually copying tokens or headers. collaboration is another strong point sharing collections and working in team workspaces keeps everyone aligned and reduces back-and-forth Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

postman feels a bit heavy on system resources especially when working with large collections or multiple workspaces. The app can become slow or require a sign in after being idle for a long time. Also, some useful features are available only in paid plans, which might not be ideal for individuals or small teams. Cosmos DB integration testing with postman is bit difficult Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A huge time-saver for API testing and debugging"
What do you like best about Postman?

Postman saves me a lot of time when working with APIs. It’s quick to set up requests, handle auth, and switch between environments using variables. Collections make it easy to stay organized, and sharing them with teammates helps everyone test the same endpoints consistently. The built-in tests and pre-request scripts are also very handy for validating responses without writing extra code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Sometimes the desktop app feels a bit heavy, especially with very large collections or many workspaces. A few collaboration and advanced features are tied to paid plans, and managing multiple environments can get a little cluttered. That said, these are minor issues compared to how useful the tool is overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Postman makes API testing fast and teamwork simple."
What do you like best about Postman?

I really appreciate how easy it is to organize and share API collections with my team. The interface is intuitive, and testing different endpoints feels smooth and fast. Also it does not force you to buy a paid plan ,it basic plan is free which really helped me to learn various tech . And also its easy to learn how to work with this. And one more thing i would like to add once i reported a bug to their customer support and it was removed within 10 days so that was their plus point according to me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

The thing which i dislike about postman is sometimes Postman uses too much of my computer memory and slow it down especially when I am working with big API collections. Also, many useful features that are used to be free are now paid, which makes it hard for small teams or beginners to work with . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
