## Martini Reviews
  ### 1. Useful API Development tools

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Purbo P. | DevOps Engineer (Remote), Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 22, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

1. Compatible for Windows, macOS and Ubuntu system
2. The documentation is very clear, it explains all the detail and also provide screenshots on how to use the apps.
3. It's very useful and easy to create REST API, it can significantly reduce development time to spend for developing REST API.
4. It even provide swagger to expose API so we can test and use the API with user interactive interface

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

1. Some of the wording in the tutorial and the actaul apps is not synced, for example, we have Loggermethod.Println but we got Logger.println in the actual app
2. The Desktop Icon shortcut doesn't work on my device, when I open it, only open the text

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

1. Surely this app can significantly reduce the development time to spend for developing API along with the documentation and swagger.
2. I believe this app  can be used by people without much programming experience to develop API
3. Usually software developer is very lazy to create documentation with this app, the docs can be done easier

  ### 2. Easiest API Development even for beginner

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Anton S. | Senior Lecturer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

1. Easy to register and verified an account
2. There is a reminder to scroll the agreement. Make sure everyone reads the license agreement. Scroll first, then pick I accept the agreement and click next.
3. Big plus is documenting, testing, securing, transaction, and creating a report for an API. It was very complete documentation and easy process.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

1. Downloading io.toro.martini.desktop.product-win32.win32.x86_64.zip. Prefer to download it first then locate the downloaded file, because the file is more than 900MB.
2. There was a different path, invoke name and step, create an endpoint, and screenshot animation guide to complete between the tutorial and the latest martini desktop from the website. 
3. Other than miss-information, it works superbly. For the difference and the problem I faced in documentation, I had to find the solution by myself and feel which one is right.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I got confused about how to develop an API because I never do how to do it. While it has so many tab views, it was an easy journey to develop an API. I had used API management tools based on web-based before, but it needs big hardware specs. This one is far more light than other tools accessed by web or standalone applications. I highly recommended Martini.

  ### 3. A good and easy solution for automating manual process and workflow

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Astha T. | Software Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

I found Martini to be one of the best alternatives for automating manual processes. It is easy to use and get used to! The UI is very interactive and has a number of great tools.  The installation process was quite straightforward. The search functionality allowed users to get the required tools easily without having to go through each option manually. For me, resetting the workspace was very useful especially if I get overloaded with tabs or get lost while following the instruction. Besides this, I really loved the documentation part. It made documenting the APIs so easy! The end result of the documentation was also great!

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The screenshots in the guidelines did not exactly match and seemed to be outdated. The background of exported report chart’s background was always black while the report’s background was always white and these settings could not be set.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I used Martini to create and document the APIs.

Since it automates the processes, it saves a lot of time. Also, Martini provides a range of functionality that helps provide a number of controls over the process that we are trying to execute.

  ### 4. API Development made easy !

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ankit S. | Trainee, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini comes with a complete package for the software engineers to Create APIs, manage the security, connect with third-party systems, acquiring database connections.
Following are the key feature I liked the most.

- Overall development time got reduced as now the whole process can be completed in 30-40 minutes max.
- We can add documentation and it creates API's equivalent Swagger, OpenAPI, and Postman definitions.
- We can create production-ready endPoints within a few minutes.
- Provides Report for a better understanding of the development made.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The Documentation provided by Martini is efficient and easy to follow, however, some of the pictures are shown from the previous version. Since the screen hasn't changed a lot, the guide can be corrected later also.

I would recommend adding validation checks in some of the places like if we select field of type integer and we are passing string value, It should say "Field not valid for type - Integer"  instead of number format exception. It is again not a functional issue and can be treated as an enhancement.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

Teams!! TORO Cloud is even faster than making an API call.
Please use the software to integrate with your third party system.
It is the future of the API.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I was solving the problem of creating an API for me and documenting the swagger for it as I was having ver less time for the developement.

  ### 5. Great low-code platform to create and manage API and to Integrate

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lakshmi Prasanna K. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 12, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini is very easy to use and get started with the documentation provided. The documentation follows a logical flow, and it has links that describe in more detail how to resolve an issue. For example, if you are publishing a RESTFul API and there are issues with the service. The possible problems are listed in the same document, and more details are present in the hyperlinked documentation on how to solve them.

I would use Martini more often to build integrated applications in a short span of time.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The screen recordings present in the documentation need to be updated. It should allow more of customization by allowing easy addition of scripts. Or by allowing users who have development expertise to edit the service files

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

Get started with the documentation and build small services. Martini provides many features, and if you are facing any issues, go through the documentation. I am pretty sure you will find your answer there.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With Martini, I was trying to publish an API that can save scores for a ScoreKeeping application. This product helped me publish the API with the least amount spent. Even though I am a Software Engineer, it takes some time to get the setup running before you get down to thinking and writing about the logic.

  ### 6. Incredible API management and integration tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Hristijan M. | Junior Software Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

- Familiar and comfortable GUI layout
- Creation, testing, management, and updating of API flows are genuinely much faster with this product. This is a great time saver for a lot of developers.
- Installation and setup of the product are simple.
- The product offers integration of many of your current workflows.
- The website for Martini and its documentation were incredibly intuitive to use and helpful.
- Martini is available both on desktop and online, offering greater flexibility, should you need it.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

- Documentation was often inconsistent with the current version of the product. (However, the contents were still well written and offered a lot of helpful information.)
- Performance felt inconsistent at times. Not sure if this can be significantly helped, though. It might just be the requirement of the product.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Martini helps you manage your API worries in a very intuitive, efficient and elegant manner. I would say that Martini significantly increases the productivity of its users.

  ### 7. Nice tool for creating and managing APIs, even though it is pretty buggy in Linux

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Domagoj K. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

The idea behind this application is actually pretty nice - it allows you to create an API with zero (or any?) coding knowledge. 

All the main platforms are supported (MacOS, Windows, Linux) and installation on Linux is easy and straightforward (even though I did encounter some problems when running the installation script on my Fedora setup).

The GUI (desktop version) is based on Eclipse IDE so it will be pretty familiar to tech-users. 

Besides the general API creation functionalities, the quick guide also describes how the API can be secured, how the documentation can be generated automatically, and how the reports can be created, which is a really nice touch.

The quick start guide is nicely written and it contains a step-by-step guide which is really easy to follow.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

On my machine running Fedora Linux OS, IDE was pretty buggy (because it crashed couple of times while working on the API) and slow. Also, I had some issues with the installation itself. After the app was "installed", I was unable to run the app so I had to start the installation process once again and this time the app worked.
Since IDE is built based on the Eclipse IDE, I assumed that I should expect "classic" Eclipse-related things such as sometimes a bit jerky/laggy performance, but while testing Martini it even went beyond this point.

User interface definitely needs some additional work: sometimes it was hard to find the proper components and select desired options (for example if you would like to define the new input parameter, the Input/Output window should be active/you should click on it, and only then you are able to click on the green icon which opens a dialog that allows you to define the input parameter) and overall I would say it is a bit cluttered.

The Quick start guide is nice but it should be updated as some of the screenshots or described options do not match the options provided in the IDE.

Even though I do understand why this tool might be interesting to someone who is not preferring writing code, I would still like to have the possibility to code the API instead of just dragging and dropping elements in the IDE.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows us to build simple APIs pretty fast and without manually writing a single line of code.

Documentation is generated automatically and that is a really nice feature.

  ### 8. Great API Managment and Integration platform

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nizar b. | Senior Solutions Architect, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

-It-Easy to use for people who are familiar with Eclipse.
-Smooth Start of the application
-User-friendly user interface because it uses Eclipse IDE.
-Support for multiple Endpoints like JMS Endpoint, File Endpoint, SOAP Endpoint, SQL Endpoint, and especially WebSocket Endpoint which other vendor does not support .
-The ability to use the designer for writing our APIs/Services and writing the code manually.
-Have predefined functions in either Java or Groovy that you can use when developing your services.
-Support for RDMS systems as well as NoSQL servers like MongoDB.
-Friendly designer for integrating and automation of your process.
-Support for multiple JMS brokers like ActiveMQ/Artemis , RabbitMQ as well as Kafka.
-Helped me a lot in throttling my Rest APIwhich others do not support.
 -Helped me write SQL Service that supports XA Transaction between two Oracle databases.
- You can use the desktop or online version.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

-The black GUI screen . It would be better to have the ability to change it or let the user choose the color of his IDE.
-Exception that can happen if you have already an activemq or artemis broker started.
-Issue in downloading the application if you are behind a Proxy.
- Documentation is not  synchronized with actual product.
- Missing 32 bit Desktop version.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

Can you please change the color of the IDE from black to white or let the user choose the correct color.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

-Testing my Rest services easily
-Exposing some Sql services as well as JMS Broker.

  ### 10. Probably the best platform for API management.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Muhammad T. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 08, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

The platform itself is easy to install and ready to go. As a person who has not much experience in backend development, I was able to handle it easily. It is the best tool even if you have less knowledge in backend coding. You can analyze data using endpoints which is an excellent and effective way. For those who don't want to code from scratch but are willing to use other tools, you can give a shot to Martini.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Some of the steps given in the documentation seem to be of older versions. So I faced difficulties in using some features. So the documentation and videos could've been a little more latest.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I used to create backend APIs for my project.
Benefits: 
- Configuring a project is not needed as it was already there.
- I was able to get reports regarding endpoints usage.

  ### 11. Very Good API Managemento Tool

- I really liked how simple it is to bind an HTTP call to a service.
- The tool has numerous features to provide everything the developer needs to create an api.
- It is a platform that needs very little code to be used, which should greatly reduce the need for training for the formation of new developers.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

- The documentation in some parts is a bit confusing and outdated, especially for those who are not used to this type of tool.
- Some parts of the tool is still not very intuitive, so the documentation needs to be always up to date.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- The ease of managing your APIs and significantly increases the productivity of its users.
- It help us to build APIs very fast and without have writing a lot of lines of code.
- Helps on the creation of the Documentation.
- Make testing very easy.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

sometimes I need to restart because some dropdown list not shown
I'm a developer at the end I like the source option near design  so it will be great if I have a configuration option that builds everything (I things they have !? )

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I work with Martian and try to build some functions and connect them using Messaging (Kafka)  my idea I try to build a microservice using this framework the flow is fast so I thank I will stop writing code when doing any small services again

  ### 13. Feature rich software for API and Integration management

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ryan K. | Founder & CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

  ### 14. An innovative way of creating APIs

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Osman G. | Software Development Team Lead, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini is a great way to build apis and web services with a blueprint fashion.
You can create your APIs as if you are drawing a UML diagram.That makes it super
useful, especially for busineses with no development background or short on time.

Do you want to build a prototype? No problem.
Do you want to want to build an MVP product. It is easy.

I was pretty impressed by the varity of technologies it supports.

It is not only easy to use but also a very powerful tool.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

There are a couple of improvements needs to be made.

First of all, although UI is looking great, it can still be improved, especially
the coloring. Some icons are hard to see because of the icon/background color
choice. 

Although it is well documented, it is a bit outdated.

Sometimes, especially resizing or moving the window, it took about 10 seconds to
adapt itself. 


Overall, it is a great product and worth giving a try.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is easy to use and a quick way of creating API. When I need a prototype, I can easily create the required APIs.

  ### 15. Great Api Management tool

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ortela G. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 10, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

- It is very user friendly and has very cool features
- You have everything in one place, the IDE for development, connection with databases, browser to test APIs, etc., which saves a lot of time.
- It is both an online and desktop application for different types of operating systems which gives a lot of flexibility
- The documentation is pretty helpful to explore the application and use its different features.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

- The documentation is not very up to date with the current application.
- Some features are not very intuitive to find, so you need the documentation as a guide.
- In the current version for Linux, there is a problem with adding a parameter to a get API as the dropdown shows only the first option, "new" and not the rest of the list

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Have all the integrations in one place
- Saving time when creating APIs

  ### 16. A future of API development for software engineers.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

With no doubt, I believe Martini is part of the future software engineering. Creating APIs, managing their security, generating database connections, etc., is no longer an annoyingly long process with a lot of issues on the way. By using Martini, the cost of creating a project is significantly reduced therefore creating more opportunities for creative thought processes and innovations. The diversity of features in Martini is something I found the most fascinating. Another great thing is its documentation, which is simple and very useful for use. I haven’t come across the question (which occurs rarely), that I couldn’t solve within 2-3 minutes of searching. Since I have discovered Martini, it became my go-to API development tool.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Although the documentation for Martini is efficient and easy to use, some parts require an image update since the new version came out. This wasn’t a major issue; since it only took a few more seconds to figure out the small changes that have occurred.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Me having a low experience in enterprise API development, Martini has created a really great opportunity for me to work in this field and not stay behind other professionals. It boosted my confidence and added more skills to my resume.

  ### 17. Avoid common mistakes and hand coding boilerplate when integrating different services

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Leisure, Travel & Tourism | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

I didn't use low/no code platforms extensively before and when I tried to use them, I often found just writing the code yourself was usually faster and simpler than learning to use a new platform. This wasn't the case with Martini, when you need to wire up many different endpoints (queues, JMS, REST endpoints, directory polling etc.) there are a lot of common mistakes and pitfalls when coding it yourself, which often leads to bugs and extra development time. If you need to do this kind of integrations often, Martini can help you save time and avoid doing the same exception handling and boilerplating all the time. For me the main attraction was being able to wire up this many different interfaces together.

Clear and detailed documentation supported by short animations on where to click and how to do things helped a lot when starting out. Common problems which may arise are addressed in documentation too, such as a view being closed or a service not running etc.

It has built-in helpers to try out what you just wrote is running correctly or not such as triggering a JMS message or or sending an HTTP request. For REST API's it is very easy to generate modern documentations, Swagger or Postman definitions while building the API at the same time, which is usually a pain when you are hand coding a service.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

As a software developer myself, I know how hard it is to keep tutorials and documentation always in sync with a large product. There may be very minor differences with the documentation and the latest version you installed but most often they are easy to figure out yourself, such as a method being named LoggerMethods.println in documentation and Logger.println in the actual application.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our microservices have many different surfaces to interact (JMS, queues, directory polling) with them and Martini is usable to wire them up together quickly.

  ### 18. One of the best tools for low code API management

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rusiru D. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini is the best tool if you don't have much coding experience with backend languages. If you are looking for a tool where you can connect to databases without any hassle, write APIs, expose those to the outside while following all the security best practices I can recommend Martini to you without second thoughts. Apart from that, you can analyze the data related to the endpoints you create using the reporting features available in Martini which comes in handy when managing public APIs. If you are a software engineer with the mindset that the duty of a software engineer is not to code from the scratch but to use the available tools to design a solution within the given budget and time, Martini is for you.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The documentation is very descriptive and understandable. But there were some places where I faced issues due to the reason that the documentation was referring to the older UI versions. Also, it would be better if the videos in the documentation are a bit slower than the current ones.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I used it to create the backend APIs for my project. The benefits are,
* I didn't want to spend time configuring a project, hassle with connecting the database, and deal with all that traditional approach headaches.
* I was able to follow the built-in security best practices.
* I was able to get data about the endpoint usage with reports.

  ### 19. Awesome Next Gen Low Code platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

Developing and deploying api in a jiffy with least code and  best standards and integrating with different middleware integrations

  ### 20. Martini saves time & effort for APIs management, integrations, & automation.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Fawad K. | Business Development Executive, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 10, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

The best thing I like is, I can create & manage APIs in a good manner & time-efficient way. It also can connect with relational databases including MySQL, PostgreSQL, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, and DB2, as well as NoSQL databases including MongoDB, Redis, & Cassandra. It saves many hours off of using traditional code-based solutions while still giving you the flexibility you need to create fantastic software applications.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

There is no dislike, whenever you first install a modern low-code platform we use to face some issue, but it can be easily resolve when you keep understanding the working of the platform.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

Developer should have to shift toward the modern way of creating & managing APIs, and leave the traditional way.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being a Mobile Application Developer, now I am able to create & manage APIs for the android & iOS apps I am developing. Martini is a life saver platform for me.

  ### 21. Easy Way for API

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joao R. | Especialista em TI, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

The best thing about Martini is how easy it is to create APIs, eThe best thing about Martini is how easy it is to create APIs, especially if your question is time to put services online. It's very fast and easy to create variables, paths, data delivery. It offers a wide range of connectors and types of services, it can be used with SQL and NoSQL databases. It's thinking about the shape and building without having to understand all the complexity of the code.specially if your question is time to put services online. It's very fast and easy to create variables, paths, data delivery.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The documentation does not seem to demonstrate some changes that have taken place in the names and types of connectors and services. Normal for a service that is changing all the time.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I solved API creation problems without having to think entirely about code, it's possible to create shapes and think more about the architecture of the System, than having to think about code types, libraries - it makes life easier when necessary to create a fast service and allows the quick modification.

  ### 22. Fantastic time saver for backend developers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Eoin M. | Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini makes it trivial to write, deploy, maintain and manage an API. It shaves many hours off of using traditional code-based solutions while still giving you the flexibility you need to create fantastic software products. Most companies that adopt Martini can expect to shave weeks off of development time; it allows developers to concentrate on what matters in development, removing only the mindless, time-consuming boilerplate that needs to be set up whenever using traditional solutions.

  ### 23. Super easy tool to Create and Manage APIs on the fly

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aneesh C. | Freelance Software Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Create an API with almost zero coding. 
The GUI allows a developer to create and test APIs quickly within a short period, reducing the overall time to market workflows.  
Adding the security layer to the API, automation of API documentation are some simply fantastic functionalities.. 

The TORO market place is having a huge collection of production ready APIs which is awesome.
The reporting feature is amazing with  several graphical representations. 
Kudos to the entire team behind this.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Even though the tutorial is well written and clearly explained, a few parts still refer to the old application version, which might confuse the user in the initial phase.

The workflows within the GUI can be enhanced by removing the tabular views to some wizard views.

In between the several steps, while creating the services, endpoints, etc., some error messages (run time errors) are displayed, and a provision to inform/mail the support team is missing. I believe this will assist the developers' who will be using this tool as the Martini community is still growing.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creating and Testing REST APIs is no more time-consuming as this tool does it all with minimal effort.
This tool gives an entire picture of an API  from a single view point which is fantastic.

  ### 24. Seamless service creation and integration with rest API and endpoints. Tracker is a bonus.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Prakash S. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

The key highlight of the Martini is 

    Easy to get started as almost all the preferences of IDE match with either IntelliJ and Eclipse so migration is pretty simple. 

    The creation of a simple service can be done without much coding knowledge. Content assign help with functionality and linking of input functional parameter is done via linking param on click of a mouse. 

    Properties tab provides configuration to mark the parameter as required or optional. 

    The run console already pops up with the parameter required for running service. 

    We have basically run a service without writing a single line of code. 

    JMS Listener endpoint invocating can be tested without worry about setting up broker/topic. Functionality is built into the application and we only to select/create a destination topic. 

    Creating rest endpoint to a definition its input/output definition along with type and doc information is very simple to expand/collapse-based form with sophisticated and easy to under. 

    Creating an HTTP client based on the definition of rest API is automated. 

    Security group and user functionality are also inbuilt to test various authentication like 0Auth 2.0 and basic. 

    The API generates a schema that can be imported in swagger, postman, and open API. 

    The various invocation on service can be tracker in tracker which when configured will capture each request's details about the sender, receiver, content type, etc.  

    The report can be generated out of the transaction in the tracker in either tabular or chart form for better visual representation. 

Hardware recommendation from my end is min 4 core CPU with 12 GB of ram for seamless operation.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

There is no dislike as such as I am still exploring the application.  However, 
I would like to see tracker logs getting synced to ELK/Kibana from various microservices so that I can see a consolidated report getting generated out of the tracker in various systems.
Still getting used to the various shortcuts due to a large set of features.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Service integration and exposing a rest endpoint out of an existing service at a click of the button. Tracker is coming in really handy for debugging breaks in the sequence of flow that has more than 2 layers of invocation.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

To improve the user experience, there should be more space between toolbar buttons. Workflows are difficult to understand. To make the procedure easier, related workflow processes should be popped out of the user. For the time being, the user must navigate the app to discover the next procedure.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Easy to use for API as I am developing some apps. It saves time compared to other services. Especially I use in integration for API and I find it safe.

From a developer perspective, I like to do more code than drag-drop, so I guess you should support writing code a little more and keep the easy way for new developers or people from other fields.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use it to make my life easier when writing APIs and integrating with other systems.

  ### 30. Feature-rich low code platform

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 07, 2022

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini is a wonderful low code API management for anyone with little coding experience looking to implement backend services without the hustle of actually learning to code or for a seasoned developer who likes to write as little code as possible. If, on the other hand, you love coding, this is probably not for you. I think it's really feature-rich, implementing some complex concepts like OAuth 2.0 authentication in the blink of an eye. If you get used to it, you'll develop backend services in record time compared to actually coding everything yourself.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Some of the GIFs in the tutorial were outdated. I'd recommend switching from GIFs to videos, so one doesn't have to watch it all over again every time you want to check something. Also, the UI feels somewhat outdated. A nicer one would be appreciated

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows to lightning-fast speed of development of backend services, enabling people with low coding experience or interest to implement backend solutions with lots of features.

I couldn't find any resource on the internet about my error and the error alert doesn't give me any hint to solve. It was hard to install the app properly.
-User interface steel feels a little bit ugly. UI colors and components should be redesigned. Icons that potentially will be the most used ones aren't as clear as day. It was hard to find proper components to navigate over application functionality.
-Still, it is hard to get used to work quickly and relax way.
-Error part of the documentation is relatively weak.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

You should definitely give a chance to Martini. At first, UI is a little bit complex but you will adapt easily.

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Martini is one of the best end-to-end application integration platforms of recent years. Martini's intuitive Low code environment allows developers to create an enormous number of services within a few hours, and one could become very conversant with the platform immediately. With Martini, we can:
- Create packages, services, reusable functions, and many connectors to connect north and southbound applications
- Expose the services over several endpoints like JMS Listener, Kafka Listener, Scheduler, Redis Pub-Sub listener, HTTP filter, FTP Server, FTP Client etc which pretty much covers most of the external touchpoint requirements

Apart from basic service creation, this platform supports the complete lifecycle of API. Once a web service is created, it can be exposed as SOAP/REST API. With in-built API Gateway capability, these APIs can be authorized (OAuth2.0), throttled, documented, published, and tracked. We can smartly report whole API usage in various reporting formats like Bar chart, Pie chart, Area chart, Line chart, Tabular form etc

Also, Martini is offered in various forms, namely a fully supported SaaS platform, on-premise installation, or installation on the public cloud, undoubtedly helpful for any enterprise.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

There are very few issues during installation and instance lauch which was resolved with restarts. Also it is highly recommended to update the tutorial to depict last terminologies used in Martini desktop workspace. API Gateway functionalities can be further enriched.

- The UI helps in creating REST APIs in a matter of minutes along with documentation and specification which can be later exported as a swagger specification and used in various platforms with changing anything.
- Documenting the API is very easy and involves less effort as we just have to write the description and the application creates the documentation on the go. We can document up to field level going up to the API.
- Creating HTTP methods with various configuration and Authentication methods such as OAuth2.0 is really easy. We can easily integrate OAuth2.0 and create users and groups that can access the API using a token generated.
- Logging and Monitoring are made easy with the help of inbuild tacking and visualizing tools, We can track and visualize any field or API that has been used in the API's specification.
- Generating a report is also a piece of cake from the pre-existing tacking system.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

- The documentation is a bit outdated and takes manual effort to find the things that are different from the documentation and the actual application.
- It takes some time to adapt to the UI and there is a learning curve to e=understand each feature of the application and that can take some time.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

You should definitely give a chance to Martini.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Creating an API requires time and effort, although there is a lot of thought that is put into designing and creating API, Martini reduces the time aspect of creating an API by providing a good tool.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Since many of the manual workprocess and flows are automated, it gonna save lot of time.
Extremely well-written documentation of martini makes it quicker and easier to learn and adapt.
Low code environment with drag and drop feature  makes implementation and usage of API  easiest of all . Even backend services can be constructed just by drag and drop rather than traditional code . 
Usage of number of diffrent tools during the diffrent stages of API development and management is no more required as the martini singly  provides all  the support and feature for authentication, security, testing, documentation, and reporting of API. All the tools required during the development and management of API is packaged in martini.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Initially , GUI seems to be clumsy in the first usage . But , with the help of well step by step and understanable tutorial, one would get used to with it shortly.
So far, there is not any discomfort in using martini. However, the documentation needs to incooperate some of the slight  UI changes in the latest version.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

Those organizations and professionals who came across the development and management of multiple ApI on a day-to-day basis should give a martini a try. It seems to save a lot of time and effort.

As a backend developer, I need to test and create APIs faster and easier, and Martini is an excellent option for that. I have made and documented an API in a few minutes. On the other hand, Martini has tutorials to learn and practice, each one with clear instructions and screenshots (useful for beginners).

The best of all is that you can do that in a single user interface, and the desktop version is free!

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

The installation file is quite large, and I would like to get access to different themes and the first contact with the software could be a bit difficult because there are too many features; however, the user only needs some time to learn how to use it.

**Recommendations to others considering Martini:**

This a perfect tool for you if your primary role is the backend but also if you are a specialist doing integrations between different platforms.

**What do you like best about Martini?**

* the most significant advantage, in my opinion, is that you can create, for example, APIs in a fast way
* it’s low code but still contains ‘everything,’: extra’s like httpclient, internal browser, reporting … + you can tweak a lot
* friendly professional site with good documentation: explained in detail/each step +  gifs. 
* desktop and online
* they have a nice feature when you mess up the layout: just reset perspective
* automatic yaml, json etc. generation for documenting your API
* nice looking professional IDE user interface
* CPU of martini-desktop usage is not high (was lower than VS Code which is already light-weight)
* no need to spend a lot of time taking screenshots etc. for reporting as a report can be automatically created

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

some minor points: 
* documentation is a bit outdated in the sense that menus are a bit different, but the logic is luckily the same
* for a non-developer, it would still be a steep learning curve
* for a developer, it will still take your time to get used to the way of working
* does not have a big name (yet?) compared to other low-code platforms, so less user-base

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

* rapid development of software

The documentation seems outdated. There are options in the website documentation that cannot be found in the Martini Desktop

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**What do you like best about Martini?**

Log tracker and report designer are beneficial features personal for me. I built different and complex reports with graphs through multiple services without additional applications such as Logstash and Kibana.

**What do you dislike about Martini?**

Application is growing up fast, and authors do not always change documentation and screenshots on time.

**What problems is Martini solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This application makes the building of API and API prototyping more effortless and faster without code writing. Application GUI is familiar and understandable. Documentation and tutorials are detailed enough and contain a lot of screenshots and videos. I succeeded in aggregating log information from HTTP API endpoints and message queues to build a complex dashboard.
