Far more expensive than Mashery, no support on migrating data from Mashery to Apigee. If you wish to migrate you are on your own.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
We've use Red Hat CloudForms, but we prefer TIBCO Mashery.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
Other providers have been considered, such as Mulesoft and IBM. The choice for Tibco was primarily inspired because of the existing partnership, and the flexibility of their offering.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
For us, it was an easy decision as we used other TIBCO solutions that well integrated with TIBCO Cloud Mashery.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
Mashery, in its deploy anywhere approach, protects web and non-web applications. It is flexible and holds its own against AWS's Web Application Firewall.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
Amazon API Gateway mainly. We find AWS is innovating very fast in the space. For the user's already with workloads running in AWS, it's easier to integrate with many other value add services like security and monitoring.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
TIBCO Cloud Mashery rates easier to use in API implementation and deployment. It also allows combining multiple APIs into packages which can be consumed by different applications.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
We use session management with TIBCO Cloud Mashery and we really love it.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
TIBCO Cloud Mashery is equal to or better than each of these competitors in many areas.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
Our selection process happened in 2016. TIBCO Mashery's easy hybrid deployment model was the reason why we decided on Mashery over Apigee. AKAMAI API gateway is now a new tool on the market evolving really fast but was not available yet when we went through the selection …
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
When the evaluation of API Management was done, the market for a cloud, SaaS offering was limited. The short timeline for setting up TIBCO Cloud Mashery and the quick enablement of the developer portal have been major decision criteria.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
Mashery was already installed when I took over the project. I have not worked extensively with other platforms.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
I've really only looked at Mashery since it has been around a very long time and has a rich feature set. I do know our platform teams are looking into AWS gateway but not sure this product has everything we need.
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
When we were first trying to identify an API Gateway provider, we evaluated Mashery and Apigee and chose Mashery because they were more competitive on cost. Now that we are with Mashery, we have not considered other vendors.

We do use Amazon's API Gateway service for some …
Chose Mashery (now part of Boomi)
I use Mashery because it is very easy to use and it can help some of the older people in my firm to understand how to use Mashery in the new programs in terms of back end and front end development. It also allows other competitors to not be needed and allows me to use other …

TIBCO Cloud Mashery allows you to quickly enable API access control and management together with quick and easy setup of the developer portal. It focuses on core API management with limited integration features (filters, adapters, orchestration) - so TIBCO Cloud Mashery is mostly suited in a setup which already addresses integration features with other products.

Pros
  • Throttling of requests helps prevent DOS attacks. Attackers try to wreak havoc wherever they can. Mashery helps you control your environments to throttle every endpoint independently.
  • The interface for setting endpoints is very intuitive and makes real-time adjustment easy to do.
  • TIBCO Cloud Mashery support is superb. I do not have to go to their website to know of any issues. They are proactive in communicating with their customers

Cons
  • Mashery should allow orchestration and transformation out of the box rather than it being a service or having to buy additional services.
  • The dashboard is easy to use but I think it needs a face lift and it needs to start using TIBCO Spotfire to make it more of a analytical engine.

Usability
i find some of the package adding and key are complex . UI experience is bad . Every step need front and backward navigation too much. It would be better if endpoint itself contain package and key addiction option

Our selection process happened in 2016. TIBCO Mashery's easy hybrid deployment model was the reason why we decided on Mashery over Apigee. Akamai API Gateway is now a new tool on the market evolving really fast but was not available yet when we went through the selection process. Tyk is open source and evolving very fast, but 2 years back, it was not mature enough. That might have changed now.

Return on Investment
  • Mashery enabled us to go to market quicker because we didn't have to write systems for authentication and security for ourselves.
  • Mashery helps our MTTR when we have issues because we can use their transaction logs to identify and troubleshoot issues.
