## Progress Telerik Fiddler Reviews
  ### 1. Essential Debugging Tool with Easy Setup

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mohd. Baquir Q. | Senior Software Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 12, 2025

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I like how Progress Telerik Fiddler makes it possible to block multiple hosts so they don't show up in the logs viewer, which is really helpful. The global search function across headers, request body, and response body saves me a lot of time, especially when some websites have so many network calls due to ads. This is useful for testing with my Android apps as well. Just being able to filter or block the incoming requests from ad websites and clean up the data view is fantastic. If I need to search for something specific, I can easily use a search and find it because Fiddler decodes the encoded body. Plus, the initial setup of Progress Telerik Fiddler was very quick and easy.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

When I try to run it in an emulator by configuring the proxy in Android, most of the apps don't work. It has no Frida bypass or root bypass for testing my Android app, as my app has encryption, so I want to do critical security testing.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Progress Telerik Fiddler to debug, inspect, and monitor network traffic. It lets me manipulate requests and responses, block unwanted hosts, and perform global searches across data, which simplifies finding the needed information by eliminating excess noise from ads.

Fiddler shows details of conversations between server and user when requested any site. This helps monitoring the traffic and troubleshoot the problems

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Not much, though there are few limitations of fiddler 

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

Awesome tool

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Almost every application communicates over http: websites, RESTful services and soap alisa. Whenever there is any problem that needs us to the level of network to figure out what is going on Fiddler comes handy 

  ### 9. A must have tool in every developer's toolbelt

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** September 14, 2023

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Ease of use
Support for HTTPs
Tool UI that's easy to use

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Nothing to complain. So far everything is working well.

To identify API calls and debug

  ### 10. Web debuger and beyond

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Fiddler gives you the possibility to not only inspect requests and responses with all the details (headers, body and representing content in several formats) but also to use breakpoints and modify the entire response or add scripting to alter or inject content

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Often it requires to explicitly decode the response body by clicking on the yellow bar in the response inspector panel. It would be good to have some automatic decoding or setting to configure this behavior.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Fiddler acts as a proxy so you can see all the traffic from a web browser and analyze each individual request, for example to a given website on the Internet, but it also allows you to inspect network calls made by other processes in your computer. This way you can easily understand what is happening, what parameters are sent and troubleshoot issues of several kinds (performance, wrong data, etc.)

  ### 11. Best Proxy Server Tool I have used

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** June 20, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

For web developers, it is one of the advanced tools with the simplest UI in the business. Easy to use. Lots of features.

The main reason I turned to Fiddler Telerik was the autoresponder tool. we work on lots of projects are in different environments and very difficult to set up that environment in a local machine. The Autoresponder makes it easy to verify my changes just by using the local file on my machine when using actual servers.
Other reasons for considering fiddler were: 
Good trial version (most of the features available to use with some limitations)
A great tool to intercept the network traffic and debug the APIs.
When debugging a major issue, you can save your session in fiddler and even share it with your team members if needed.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

On some complex features, documentation lacks a bit. I was able to get lots of good information on youtube from various other users but it would have been good if official documentation describes most of it.

Another minor thing is a grouping of Autoresponder rules, a couple of years earlier, I was able to group rules and was able to perform one action (enable/disable/delete) for the whole group. This was very useful when using different projects or in the same project on different environments. I would love it if they bring it back.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Fiddler made it easy for us to work on different projects set up in different environments. Fiddler enables us to work on all projects simultaneously with very minimal settings needed for each project. It not only increases our productivity(users need to learn less applications) but also reduces cost (reduces number of applications needed to buy)

  ### 12. Fantastic tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

My work involves a lot of integration with third party APIs, this tool provides a clear breakdown of API calls and makes it really simple to see the raw request so that we can write code to build that same request. We have found that in a lot of cases, it highlights missing headers in the requests as well as gives the raw json data which is easy to pull out and create matching classes

It's so simple to use, really easy to filter out requests to only see the bits that you are actually interested in

It's such a useful and well built project that I insist all developers on my team have it so that they can use it for debugging and to aid in building new integrations.

Invaluable tool, cannot recommend it enough

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Nothing! This is a fantastic product and I have nothing that I can say I dislike about it

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

It's such a simple yet effective tool, there are so many uses for this within IT especially within API development or integration, try it and thank me later

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As mentioned in the above statement, the main issue that this solves is to get raw request and response details to make it easier to build out api requests that are being made and re-create them in code as well as sending raw details to support teams when something goes wrong

  ### 13. Makes My Life Easier

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amjad H. | Software engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 24, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The ease of testing without the need to deploy my changes to servers. Working as a proxy is the best thing; so I can test anything I need

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I just dislike sometimes the complexity of adding new rules to fiddler, where I don't know sometimes what to choose from (Magic String, Response File ...)

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps me in debugging my work (code) without the need to deploy them to servers, where it saves me a lot of time and prevents any harm that would happen if I deploy my changes without fully testing, where some changes can't be tested locally; so I would to deploy it in normal cases

  ### 14. Fiddler is a staple in my teams debugging process

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex N. | Sr. Dynamics Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

This tool is perfect to run code locally without ever having to publish changes to a server. It's proved much more useful and intuitive to set up than other tools.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The only downside would be auto filtering options on requests are not very robust but I'm still able to find what I'm looking for manually using the search box

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Fiddler as a proxy in our development process. We're able to save countless hours by running code locally instead of publishing changes. This makes it very easy to test and confirm code changes work properly before pushing anything to production.

  ### 15. Fiddler Everywhere is a great tool to setup proxy server

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer & Network Security | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I liked how I can customize my proxy responses and then save them and export them.  Fiddler is also very convenient to use. Good for beginners too. I also liked using Autoresponder.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

In order to delete a custom response, I have to manually delete each one of them. There should be an option to delete everything at once. Also the import and export can be updated

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am using it to create a proxy server in order to serve a proper response to API interception and autoresponder. It can also be used to send requests too I believe

  ### 16. Easy debugger for front-end developers

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The third-party application is safe and secure and is able to intercept API calls over the internet. The navigation across tabs is quite user-friendly in nature. It not only records the response data but also records the request data. It can alter the data while sending to the server and alongside while receiving from the server which helps in testing the end to end behaviour of the application and where it can break the normal flow. Tracking the speed of the data flow is another important feature of the software which is noteworthy. The main differentiator of the product is that alteration and testing can be done on a local codebase while developing. It greatly reduces time to market.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The software is not allowed on all corporate networks though the free version is available. Other than that, the requests when imported to LoadRunner is not smooth and up to the mark. The online response of the customer team could have been better and since this software is still not widely used there are relatively less resources over the internet.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

It is a very useful software for front end development if your corporate networks allow to use it or have bought the premium version of the software.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The different responses from the same API can be created synthetically and tested how the UI will respond. It reduced the efforts and increased efficiency of the front-end developers who don't have to depend on the varied API responses for development.

  ### 17. A must tool for web developers

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yawar A. | Software Developer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 24, 2021

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

There're a lot of features for almost every kind of developer, which is especially useful while debugging. Apart from the renowned "traffic capture" feature, there're options to encode/decode responses. It can even replace PostMan to test a web API.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

So far there's nothing that I dislike about this tool. But, if there's something I would like to get improved, it's the documentation.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

This is a great tool that's especially useful while debugging API's. Spend some time learning this tool and you won't regret it.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Debugging API's. Requesting tokens with saved API requests.

  ### 24. Fiddler's Straightforward and Simple

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel H. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 22, 2020

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I like that Fiddler is very upfront about what it does and provides an easy to use interface to do it. It is clear where I am supposed to input my requests as well as the request body and authentication information (among other things). It is also very easy for me to see my past requests and past results. They are all present on the same page which is nice because I don't have to navigate to multiple different locations.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I dislike that Fiddler seems rather limited in its capabilities. It does not have a whole lot of functionality outside of simple REST requests that are run one at a time. I also do not like that I have to manually type out entire REST requests with exactly perfect syntax. It would be nice if it could do this in a more automated fashion.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

If you're going to use Fiddler, you need to know how REST requests are syntactically put together. There is no assistance for doing this within the application, so learning how to actually utilize it may be difficult.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am able to easily test HTTP requests using REST. I am also able to quickly and easily access my past requests and save them to my computer to share with my coworkers.

  ### 25. Fiddler - A Path Maker

The best thing I like about fiddler is that while developing whenever I get an error and if I want to see what services are firing on particular button , i simply start fiddler and capture the traffic due to which I can easily understand overall data flow of traffic.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The one thing that I dislike i that ui is not user friendly as it takes time to understand the environment to new person .

  ### 28. Awesome tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Loveleen S. | Software Test Engineer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2020

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I use Fiddler Everywhere in my everyday testing of mobile apps and websites. It has become one of most important tools in my tool set.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I haven't experienced any major issues with Fiddler.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Capturing internet traffic, mocking api request and responses etc.

  ### 29. Fantastic and must have tool for performance engineers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rohit S. | Lead Performance Engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 08, 2019

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

We use fiddler for our day to day activity of recording the application flow, capturing the rendering times of the pages, checking the network and latency and on many occasions debugging the issue as well. We like the way how we can save our session and import them in loadrunner to create loadrunner compatible custom requests. That makes easy for us to capture those request which are not captured in loadrunner and since we can import them directly into loadrunner that makes this tool very very useful.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

While importing the requests captured in fiddler to loadrunner, presently it just imports them and create custom request. But in cases where we have huge no of requests which are needed to be imported, it becomes difficult in loadrunner to match how many requests are for which transaction. We would love to have a feature where while importing fiddler also create transactions in loadrunner on the basis of comments we have given for group of transactions.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In loadrunner many times requests donot get captured. So via fiddler it is possible to capture each and every request and then import them easily on loadrunner.

  ### 40. Fully Test Your Web Application With Fiddler!

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** DaLarm H. | Software Engineer, Computer Software, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 29, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I like how simplistic the application is. I don't really have to do many setting changes in order to get started. Once I get my phone to connect properly to Fiddler, it's pretty easy from there. I like how you can filter out processes based on what you want. I tend to filter out the processes so that it only shows the urls that I'm browsing on my phone.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

However, I wouldn't necessarily call this application intuitive. I definitely had to ask for guidance/help both online and offline. To be honest, I'm still not entirely sure how it all works. I feel like this application would be a bit better if there was more documentation on how it worked. I did find an instructional guide on how to use Fiddler with my phone. However, the instructional guide was pretty straight-forward. I would've liked it ab it more if it was more in-depth.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

I would recommend this application for any Web Developer or Software Engineer that is handling a web application. Fiddler is very useful for mobile testing. 

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The main reason I've been using Fiddler at work is to do extensive testing on the web features/functionalities that I've coded. Although using an emulator on Chrome/Firefox tends to work most of the time, I think it's best practice to test out code on an actual mobile device. Fiddler lets me test out my web functionalities without pushing my code into production. When my phone connects, my phone can browse using the development server that I'm connected to on my laptop. So my phone can test out my code pre-production. 

  ### 41. Telerik Fiddler Review 

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

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

**Reviewed Date:** January 14, 2019

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Fiddler is one of the best online tool available right now for monitoring and analyzing web traffic.
In Fiddler, you can easily find out almost everything with respect to web request like Headers, Text View, Syntax View, Cookies etc. of a request. All in all, this becomes very helpful for a developer or user who is analyzing web traffic requests. 

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

As every good software fiddler too has few issues as well. If used for too long to analyze web requests, fiddler becomes too slow and at times becomes unresponsive as well. 
Ability to selective filter requests is not available in Fiddler and can be a nice feature addition in future. 

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

Fiddler is one of the best market available tool right now to monitor, analyze and understand web traffic requests. Fiddler is headed in the right direction and is a delight to use when writing web APIs. 

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Fiddler to monitor web traffic which helps me in developing web services and web APIs for my software product.

  ### 42. If you know how to use it, you will get a great value from it

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 08, 2019

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I use it mainly to debug cloud service calls for the application I support. It tracks every service call with great details.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

It can slow down your machine if you have too many things open because traffic is rerouted through it. Also if you don't close it correctly and leave it to crash, it could stop your internet connection.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

Careful when you use it to not leave it open for a long time. Also try not to make it crash. It's still an open source free product.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

helps us verify service calls and make sure that we aren't making too many calls that slows down the services.

  ### 43. Fiddling with web apps is easy with Fiddler

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 02, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I use Fiddler more than any other "helper" application that we run at work. The ease of access to the detail Fiddler providers in what's going on in my web requests goes way beyond anything else I've used. When I've exhausted all other debugging options (which is often) Fiddler always bails me out because I can see what's going on behind the scenes and along the wire. 

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

While this isn't totally Fiddler's fault, I sometimes forget to close Fiddler and it gets in the way of publishing or other tasks that fail while a proxy is running. But it's easily fixed by simply closing Fiddler

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Fiddler saves a TON of time normally spent on debugging problems that may not be visible otherwise. I've realized that without it, there are some problems I would just have never solved.

  ### 44. Fiddler Usage on Mac for REST calls

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Phuc T. | Web Developer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

I was using Postman and then wanted to try Fiddler too to compare REST call response.  So this is a brief review on just the REST call feature.  I used Fiddler for just a basic usage and it ran the calls that I wished to test. Overall it does that task for you.  

I haven't tried the other features/tools or advanced features available, but it appears there are many, so I assume advanced developers are using or demanding such advanced features.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

It wasn't intuitive to install (for Mac) users.    I understand it is on BETA, so it's somewhat expected. It's also expected in general that installing things via terminal is not always straight forward, but installing a desktop app on Mac App on mac, users typically expect a one step that it would be just through Installation wizards.

It required installing Mono Framework first via terminal.. but there are directions on the Telerik blog to follow.  If I recall, I had a few errors trying to install Mono that I wasn't able to resolve, but eventually tried to install Fiddler anyways, and it ran.

The other thing was the set up to get going also wasn't intuitive.  Postman and other applications just have you post the url, the data  and run. Fiddler, however had several options to enter your server information. I believe the advantage of that, is direct connection.  For my purpose, I just needed to simply enter http url, info and run, so to quickly test.

It is possible because I am not too familiar with all the backend configuration which Fiddler gives options to, that it is confusing for me to fill out and make use initially.  I would have to further investigate if I were to continue to test REST calls, using Fiddler tools.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

If you're using Fiddler to test REST calls, it does do the job. If you're an advanced user, perhaps it appears there are many options available to make use of the Application's advanced features.   If you're a Mac user, just read up on the installation process and the extra steps required.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I needed to use Fiddler to test a few REST calls, to see if the 3rd party APIs were running, properly.  I wanted to verify that it wasn't just an error in my code, or running a REST call through command line.  Over all, Fiddler returned the same data so I was able to verify that it was likely not an error on my end.  So I trust that I can rely on checking with applications like Fiddler, that was developed by a team of experts. 

  ### 45. Fiddler - One of the Best Security & Tracking Tool

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Swapnil S. | Associate Architect, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 13, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Fiddler makes REST API debugging quite Simple. At every REST call, just put a debugger and see the actual calls that are being made, with complete header and payload.
Also, it's ability to repeat requests to a website which allows me to debug at a rapid speed.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Lot of warnings/certificates acceptance when enabling decryption of HTTPS data.

Otherwise, I think it is the simplest tool with all the functionalities working smooth as expected from it.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

If you are web developer or programmer, just run your system on Fiddler to see how well your server is doing. Also, the ease of Use and the performance speed is just great. So, if you are a web Developer or relevant, just go for it.!!

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Debugging servers and REST Calls, analyzing performance, finding any error, checking security loopholes.

Without Fiddler, I think all of this would have been really terrible and difficuly

  ### 46. REST assured (pun intended)

**Reviewed by:** Anthony J. | Programmer, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 10, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Fiddler made debugging APIs easier and comprehensive. It provides the user with complete details of each network requests and provides a user-friendly UI where you can disect information of each network request. It also has a filter to only see requests coming/going to a specific domain. Outputs can be viewed in JSON, XML and RAW formats. It works well with PostMan.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The usefulness of this product overcomes one thing I don't like about it which is the UI. It looks like an old software.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

This tool is a great help especially in developing Web API's. It's free to use.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It provided us with great support in developing our API endpoints.

  ### 47. Fiddler review

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Saurabh K. | Senior Software Development Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 20, 2017

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Fiddler is an amazing tools I have been using for about 4 years now. It makes REST api debugging a breeze. At every rest call, just put a debugger and see the actual calls being made, with complete header and payload. 
And the best part it decrypts https data too (if allowed). 

Data can be seen in any format (xml, json or raw)

Requests can be composed at runtime to trigger various cases.

Rerun is trivial of same requests with modifications.

Fiddler rules to handle automated responses.




**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

Its difficult to say, as its been helping me a lot with debugging. But a filter with specific domains might be helpful. Currently I have to search for the domain I am debugging for.

Lot of warnings/certificates acceptance when enabling decprtion of HTTS data (expected though)

Difficult to connect with Android/iOS devices

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

Fiddler is a great tool to use, but recently I have seen POSTMAN from google alos emerging with similar features. But still POSTMAN has a long way to go.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Mainly I use it for development/debugging of REST interfaces which I have to write for both Android and desktop interfaces. 
Ease of development.
The pace of development have increases drastically.
Security audit can be performed and product can be made secure.

  ### 48. Nice tool to test your APIs.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are developing new API end points for our application. We use fiddler to test these API end points and monitor incoming and outgoing data to/from these APIs.

  ### 49. Necessary in any Performance test

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Alex G. | Senior QA Engineer / Scrum Master, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 17, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The interface is possibly too outdated compared to today's applications.

**Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:**

Everything is fine. Just improve the theme of the application.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It has offered us the solution to find the API calls without the need to have a development team behind to generate related documentation.

  ### 50. Correctly analyzes all requests

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** ravi r. | Associate Software Developer, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 12, 2018

**What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

We needed fiddler to know how the file uploading failed, and fiddler did it very nicely by telling the type of error. It operates in between the requests which make it very unique. Certificates can be attached very easily. It has caches analyzing which is perfect tool for getting to know if our web app behaved correctly or not. We get to know times of all requests and hence improve the api's which causes the bottleneck.

**What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?**

The 1000 bucks for the complete support package for an year looks quiet over priced. It can not change the post variables.

**What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We added certificates with our request and tested it with fiddler. We used it as http/https proxy and analyzed our requests for our web application.
