"Postman Makes API Testing and Team Collaboration Effortless"
What do you like best about Postman?

Honestly, Postman has made my work so much easier. Before using it, testing APIs was a bit of a mess — I had to keep track of everything manually. Now I just save all my requests in one place and come back to them whenever I need.

What I really like is how simple it is to switch between different setups like dev and production. It's just a quick change and you're good to go. No more copy-pasting URLs every single time.

The testing part is also really helpful. I can check if an API is working the way it should without doing everything by hand. It catches problems early, which saves a lot of headaches later.

Also, sharing my work with teammates is super easy. Everyone stays on the same page without long back-and-forth messages trying to explain things.

It's one of those tools where once you start using it, you can't really imagine going back to how things were before. Definitely worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

The one thing that bothers me a bit is how heavy it feels sometimes. When I open Postman, it takes a little while to load, especially if I have a lot of collections saved. It's not a huge deal, but it does slow things down a little when I'm in a rush.

The pricing is another thing. The free version is fine for basic use, but once your team grows and you need more features, it gets pretty expensive. I wish they had more flexible plans for smaller teams.

Also, for someone just starting out, it can feel a little overwhelming at first. There are so many options and settings that it takes some time to figure out where everything is. A simpler onboarding experience would really help new users get comfortable faster.

Sometimes the app also feels a bit slow when working with large responses or big collections. A small performance boost would go a long way.

These are small things though — overall the tool still does its job well. I just think with a few improvements, it could be even better for everyday use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Postman Streamlines the Full API Lifecycle with Powerful Collaboration and Integrations"
What do you like best about Postman?

What I like best about Postman is how it simplifies the entire API lifecycle through a clean and practical UI/UX that works well for developers, architects, testers, and integration teams. It makes API exploration, documentation, testing, and collaboration much easier in one place. Its integration capabilities are also very valuable, allowing teams to connect with CI/CD pipelines, source control, monitoring tools, and multiple environments. Performance is strong for daily API testing and debugging, especially when working with collections, variables, and automated runs. Pricing is flexible, and the ROI is clear when teams reduce manual testing, improve API governance, and accelerate delivery. Support and onboarding are helped by strong documentation, templates, and a large user community. The AI and intelligence capabilities add even more value by helping create tests, understand APIs faster, and improve developer productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Sometimes the way the interface works to add connectivities is not so friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Postman Makes API Testing Faster with Mock Data, Metrics, and AI Scripting"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like how we can easily bypass actions from the frontend and still get the expected results. It also makes it simple to mock user data so I can test and view all the different scenarios. The performance metrics of the APIs always play a main role in the Postman. The runner integrations to execute the repeatetive tasks with less efforts. The AI in the post man is very helpful to add the pre request and post response scripts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

When sharing APIs with others, we’re currently only able to share a collection, not a single request. It would be better if we could get support from Postman to share one API request as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All-in-One API Testing and Automation Saves Time, AI Suggestions Boost Speed"
What do you like best about Postman?

What stands out for me is how Postman brings testing and automation into one place. I usually use pre-request script and test automation when working on multiple APIs and it saves a lot of time compared to setting things manually every time.

The newer AI suggestion are also helpful, especially when I'm working with a new APIs and don't want to write everything from scratch. The AI generated thing is not my final draft but if definitely reduces repetitive work and speeds things up.

Overall, It makes it easier to focus on actual API logic instead of spending too much time on setup, especially when validating multiple endpoints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

Postman can feel a bit heavy sometimes, especially with large collections and, I have noticed some lag during active use. Managing environment and variables can also get confusing it things are not well organized. The UI is powerful but sometimes a but cluttered, which makes simple tasks feel slower than they should be.

"Postman’s Intuitive UI and Powerful Integrations Make API Testing Effortless"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like most about postman is its clean and intuitive UI, which makes API testing real quick and super easy even for complex flow. It offers us strong integration with tools like CI/CD and git. Performance and pricing is so reliable, even with large collections and automated tests. Support and onboarding are smooth with good documentation and its growing AI features helps us to automate testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

what I dislike about postman is that it can feel heavy and slow when we are working with large collections, which impacts performance. The UI can sometimes become cluttered and overwhelming for new users. Sometimes integration with other platform feel complex. Also support can be slower on lower tiers, and the newer ai features still feel a bit limited in real world use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Postman Made API Testing Easy During My Internship"
What do you like best about Postman?

I use Postman to test APIs, and it has been a big help because I can run different types of HTTP requests all in one place. The interface is easy to use, and the charges are nominal, or you can simply use the free version. It also includes a wide range of features, which makes it convenient for day-to-day testing. With Postman, we can validate backend logic without needing a frontend implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

For me, script testing and automation were very difficult features to understand during my initial internship. Sometimes it also lags when I use multiple tabs at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive, Powerful Postman for Efficient API Development and Testing"
What do you like best about Postman?

Postman is very easy to use and makes working with APIs much more efficient. The interface is intuitive, allowing you to quickly create, organize, and test requests. Features like collections and environments help structure API workflows and make it easy to manage different configurations across development, staging, and production.

I also like the ability to write automated tests, use pre-request scripts, and chain requests together. This makes it a powerful tool not just for testing APIs, but also for validating and automating workflows. Collaboration features are also useful, as teams can share collections and documentation easily. Overall, it’s a very complete tool for API development and testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

As projects grow, collections can become difficult to manage and organize without clear structure. The interface can feel a bit heavy at times, especially when working with large collections or multiple environments. Additionally, some advanced collaboration and governance features are tied to paid plans, which can limit functionality for larger teams unless upgraded. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy, Organized API Testing with Collections and the Collection Runner"
What do you like best about Postman?

What I like about Postman is how easy and organised it makes API testing. As a QA, I can group APIs into collections, which keeps everything clean and easy to implement and manage.

The Collection runner is very useful for running automation tests where I can run multiple APIs together and add simple tests in post and pre scripts, and quickly check if anything is failing. It significantly reduces manual effort and helps ensure consistent regression testing across modules.

API documentation is also very helpful in understanding the API contracts and helps in the ease of setting up the testing process and checks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

There is just one thing, which is more like a feature request from my side to Postman to implement to help us testers in one major use case to run end-to-end testing of a complete user flow through a master collection.

For example, if I want to test a full journey like user signup > login > subscription > gameplay, where these APIs usually belong to different collections (Auth, Payments, Game APIs).

If a master collection were available, I could group all these related collections in one place and run the entire flow in sequence. It would make end-to-end testing easier, reduce duplication of tests and help in running full regression checks in one go Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for API Testing and Environment Management"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like the environment feature in Postman because it allows me to change just one base URL and use the same collections across staging, preprod, and prod environments. I also find importing collections easy since they were already set up by others. Using Postman helps me test iOS and Android apps for any issues and check backend responses to identify where an issue might lie, especially when there's a difference in behavior between iOS and Android. Additionally, I'm learning about APIs and gaining technical knowledge through using Postman. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Postman Streamlines API Testing with Collections, Environments, and Powerful Automation"
What do you like best about Postman?

I like how Postman simplifies API testing with features like Collections and Environment variables, which save a lot of time during repeated testing across different environments. The ability to run multiple APIs using the Collection Runner makes regression testing much faster. I also use test scripts to validate responses and chain APIs, which helps in covering end-to-end flows without relying on UI. Overall, it has made my workflow more efficient and structured, especially when handling multiple APIs and frequent builds. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Postman?

One limitation I’ve noticed is that Postman can become slow and heavy when working with large collections or multiple environments, which affects performance. Managing test scripts across multiple requests can also get repetitive, as reusability is somewhat limited without proper structuring. Additionally, version control and collaboration features are not as seamless compared to code-based tools, making it slightly challenging to track changes in larger teams.
