Apigee Edge vs. Axway AMPLIFY Platform

Few scenarios 1. For viewing API analytics, I think it is best in the market 2. For earning money via API monetization 3. Securing API 4. Onboarding legacy APIs to provide modern REST endpoints

It's a great application to backup your data automatically to the cloud and then access later. The automatic restore of certain folders is handy and one less thing to worry about when you're setting up a new PC again. I haven't really encountered any issues with Syncplicity to have any thoughts where it could be improved or where it wouldn't work.

• Better exception handling with the Raise exception policies help to monitor the flow by setting up the flow conditions.
• Easy development of a Proxy and APIs with much less tutoring and helps make getting started for new users easy.
• Very good documentation and blog with details of most common failures and error handling.
• A very very easy to use console.

• By default, it is setup to backup my Desktop Shortcuts, My Documents, and my Internet Explorer Favorites folders. When I sign into a new PC, it automatically syncs these items, making it easy for my data to travel with me.
• I'm able to easily share my items/folders with coworkers, granting them read or read/write access as required.
• I like that items that are shared with me allow me to choose to sync them to my PC or not. This allows me to sync smaller items like documents and spreadsheets, but keep things like webex recordings stored in the cloud and not using up gigabtyes of space on my PC. :)
• I like that, during times when I want to free up resources, I can pause the syncing of files.

• Only one user can be active in a proxy at a time
• No version control
• Prohibited from using JSON.stringify on Apigee objects (tokens)
• Debugging is difficult
• Unable to rename or delete policies without bumping revision
• Why would anyone give a js policy one name, display name something else, and script a different name?
• 'Trace' limited to only 20 transactions
• UI allows users to add target servers, but users must utilize the api to turn on SSL.
• I'm sure there's more, they just aren't coming to mind right now.
• Apigee forgets (expires?) your password at random intervals without notice. Every few weeks, or days, sometimes even three times in one day, I'll attempt to login to Apigee and my password will be 'wrong'. I've reset my password and Apigee still claims it's wrong. I've had to reset my password three times before it finally let me log back in.

• I would appreciate it if it backed up more than just Desktop, Favorites and Documents by default. I'm not sure if this was something chosen by my employer, but it would be nice if the whole profile folder was backed up by default, so my pictures, music, and videos folders were included.

I am not the one deciding whether to use apigee or not really. But personally, I would recommend the use of it as developing APIs on it is easy. And as a mediator between backend servers, we could easily modify request and responses in it without touching any backend code while having a centralize gateway to access our backend APIs too.

Support has helped us to resolved all the queries and community support was also good.

Quite hard to get support, at least on the coding side, when we encounter blockers. But general concerns, they would schedule a call to you for them to get a whole picture of your concern. Albeit in my experience, bad really as they haven't replied about the progress, but otherwise seems to have been fixed.

Apigee is the best in the market in terms of API Analytics Apigee is having wonderful Documentation with short videos Security is a major concern and Apigee provides an easily configurable policy to secure API Quota and rate-limit is again very easy to configure on every API basis It provides various policies to transform the response from one form to another form e.g. JSON to XML or XML to JSON

I use CrashPlan for my personal PC at home. I think both products have their pluses and minuses. Both products allow you to backup your selected data to the cloud. CrashPlan doesn't easily allow for file sharing (CrashPlan isn't really a collaboration tool as much as it is a backup tool). Both products have easy restore options. However Syncplicity automatically restoring certain data when syncing with a new PC is very handy and a feature that CrashPlan doesn't offer

• As a public entity it is hard to say how much ROI we can have. We have yet to create a billing and ROI plan. We are thinking of other ways to create ROI, possibly through data/service barter.

• The ease of use saves me a lot of time.
• Being able to easily share files with my coworkers also saves me time.
• This allowed my company to reduce the size of our file server and in doing so, reduced our storage budget.
