Review about REST service **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** YASH P. | Senior Software Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 22, 2022 **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. **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. **What problems is REST solving and how is that benefiting you?** While using with other Rest service the most important is that in which form the data is coming. And rest always gives us data in json form so we can use it in any system and other any kind of software. While it also delivere the real time refresh system and I think that is the most important thing while working on data. ### 7.

We can simply consume the API using REST. **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. **What problems is REST solving and how is that benefiting you?** REST provides easy way to consume and expose the API using get and post method and it doesn't require much configuration so it is helping me to get the data in my projects.. ### 8.
