"Defacto pattern for modern web communication"
What do you like best about REST?

I like a lot that you can represent almost every structure in the world wit REST, also that thei knowledge is widespread around the dev world this makes easy to integrate it in a project with an increasing team size Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

Sadly besides being understood by a lot of people, sometimes people dont understand the stateless part of it, or the logic of resources, so this makes the pattern difficult to follow Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"REST: Backbone of Web services"
What do you like best about REST?

As I am using REST with the python, I am liking below features most.

- We can use REST with different laguages so that we can manage multiple services of same or different laguages in one application.

- We can also invoke the REST API intenally from one microservice to another.

- We can also use REST with HTTPS and oauth mechanism for security

- As REST doesn't maintain client state, We can simplify server logic Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

Using the REST API We are not able to show real time communication and analytics as It requires http call Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"REST is best!"

REST is great for making concise URL endpoints to query a database backend. It's useful for making dynamic web apps. It is an ideal choice for developing cross platform APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

Can sometimes be difficult choosing which stack to program with. Must always take security considerations in to mind when developing REST API endpoints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review about REST service"
What do you like best about REST?

While iwas using soap before I introduced to rest web services. It's very easy to use this service to get and post the data to the server. Most important thing is that we just need to use the url of exposed rest service to interact with our database. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

The downside of this rest service that I think is that it's not tracking which user hit the request for the data. It just need to url to interact with the api service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Review about REST"
What do you like best about REST?

I have used REST web services in Outsystems and for using a rest web service we do not require any external system to get and post the data. We can simply consume the API using REST. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

I am not sure about the dislike yet I haven't seen any but I have a question if there is any change in the REST API then do we need to refresh where we are consuming those API using REST or it will auto refresh. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The Client can directly call the HTTP Services exposed on a Server by sending HTTP requests."
What do you like best about REST?

The server and the client act independently of one another as long as the interface stays the same when processing a request and a response. The server exposes the REST API, and the client makes use of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

Needs some more features as compared to its alternative tool "Postman offers a web version as well as a desktop app". They need to inherit features like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"REST review"
What do you like best about REST?

I have used your REST service and really like it. As g2 API returns 25 reviews per request. You can get all reviews from a single place by using the offset parameter and many more. But It's completely fine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about REST?

Response time could be faster! Otherwise it works very well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
