"We trust Tyk to handle our growing amount of APIs at Bravissimo!"
4/5
What do you like best about Tyk?

We love the Tyk Operator! It's a very progressive, cutting edge tool, and when running a Kubernetes environment slots right in with other tools we use that use the operator model! Being able to declaratively say how we want our APIs handled is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tyk?

Honestly not a lot! My minor gripes are probably around the terminology can sometimes be a bit confusing between dashboards and control planes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Brilliant product from a company that really cares."
5/5
What do you like best about Tyk?

They really care about their customers and go out of their way to ensure their product is delivering.

Ongoing product Development has also been great with frequent new features which are always included and never held back behind a pay wall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tyk?

I really don't have any complaints. I've hit the occasional bug but no platform is bug free, in all cases their support has always responded and helped resolve the issues promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ease of use"
4/5
What do you like best about Tyk?

It is generally easy to set up and use straight away for simple POC or general use cases. But it does have intensive configurations for different needs as well. And more importantly, their gateway is open source, and you can know what they are doing. They do integrate with open source tools like jager, zipkin for tracing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tyk?

Documentation wasn't their strong point, but it is improving now. Tyk Dashboard provides only simple analytics reporting; you need to pump the information into other tools to get more info about your APIs. Sadly their integration with cloud platform is not very deep, mainly just using them as infrastructure platforms, no integration with S3, X-ray, Secret Managers, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4.5/5
What do you like best about Tyk?

A great team to work with! No matter which business area we speak to we get a great experience, they are all great people. The product itself is also very good, far better than other API gateways I've used in the past Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Batteries-included api gateway with good support for cloud-native workloads."

What do you dislike about Tyk?

The documentation can be a bit confusing for some of the operational aspects of running Tyk. In some cases, the documentation has been incorrect or missing entirely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very simple to use, very powerful, works great with Kubernetes"
5/5
What do you like best about Tyk?

Tyk is easy to set up, easy to integrate, support GraphQL and works excellent on K8s.

The best dashboard out of any we tried.

The docs are solid, and there is a significant and responsive community to help out when things get stuck.

The support service is excellent, def recommend taking that up. Helpful when planning to move to production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tyk?

The included Dev Portal is pretty basic. I haven't tried the Enterprise Portal, so I can't comment.

The cloud pricing is open, but you need to speak with sales to get pricing for the self-hosted stuff; that's annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
