Great features for combining APIs and data sources with server-side scripting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dying product, overpriced, terrible customer service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of connecting relational data sources with file systems and objects, generating understandable and extraneous powerful APIs in a few clicks, coupled with ACL control and triggered script processing in internal API events, is extremely scalable, run it all on the infrastructure provider I want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Debugging scripts is not always easy, deploying role modifications also requires extra attention. A command line tool to represent configuration state through code would be very welcome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DreamFactory provides you commercially ready APIs instantly via what I guess you could call an API Framework. Many of the decisions are made for you, and intentionally so. Building APIs is mundane and involved, so a tool that moves you through this process fast by automatically providing best practices allows our team to focus on higher value add tasks.

DreamFactory is also very lightweight and fast for a full lifecycle API Management tool. By that I mean that you don't need to firstly incorporate an enterprise message bus that realistically requires its own full time developer. As DreamFactory is ROA based, you don't need to worry about this.

The API orchestration afforded by DreamFactory is also fantastic. The ability to incorporate multiple, unrelated data sources in single API calls enables us to develop some great services that would otherwise be cumbersome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is a little dated, but this in no way takes away from the functionality.

Some of the documentation was a little lacking (the wiki), but the new guide that has just been released has been a fantastic resource for us on how to leverage the solution to its fullest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

is a great tool that allows you to manage and carry out the control and proper handling of the data handled by the entire work team, thus helping to improve the performance of the entire work team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you want to debug problems, it does not allow you to do it for me to be the main inconvenient because I try to eliminate information and do not allow it to be done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

APIs are built for you - and not just any APIs. Fully documented, fully secured (OAuth, LDAP, Active Directory, SAML Integration...) and accessible through a 3rd party client.

Very easy to import Active Directory. Very easy to create roles with appropriate limits.

Logging functionality great as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UI isn't very pretty, but its an 11/10 on functionality, & productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fastest and easiest API Management tool my department has ever used. We used DreamFactory to build the REST APIs we needed for a series of projects and were able to save tens of thousands on the developer hours it would have taken otherwise.

The UI is also very easy and made our particular use case involving turning SOAP services to REST a dream. Once we configured server side scripting it our SOAP to REST translation automatically for us. Support has been fantastic! Erik, one of the engineers there, has been notably excellent.

I dislike that we didn't find DreamFactory earlier! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

DreamFactory has saved us countless development hours by providing an extremely easy way to bridge our data sources. Before we replaced our homegrown solution with DreamFactory, we constantly had to make code updates on our end. Now it all happens behind the scenes without any manual intervention.

One feature that we didn't know existed at first is the abiliity to write you own transformation scripts/routines. You can think of it as a the "T" layer in a ETL process, but applied directly to your API. This was our original concern with using DreamFactory, but after seeing they had this already bulit-in, it washed all our concerns away. They have this stuff set up really well.

We haven't run into any issues with the product yet. It's a pretty intuitive UI so all of our team members have been able to get up and running pretty quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dreamfactory is super easy to configure new endpoints in. Connecting to both closed and open source dbms is easy and the consistent way of exposing endpoints take make libraries of code really easy to reuse. The support is also really good - often just a few second on chat. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The hardest part are the upgrades. For a mission critical app, downtime needs to be minimal. The upgrades certainly don't require much downtime, but it does .ean we have to do upgrades off hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The full documentation and testing features of the API Docs section of the software. It allows even a novice user to spin up Postman and start experimenting. It is truly one of the best features of the package. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Current pricing is a bit high for the enterprise level connections. Going from open-source and free to use to tens of thousands of dollars is a big wall to climb. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simplicity - DreamFactory's easy API solution to put on our db's makes life really easy. Gets us our data quickly and easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there's not a lot I don't like. Things can always be a bit easier, a bit simpler, etc., but overall they do a great job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
