SoapUI and its Pro version, ReadyAPI, are widely used tools for integrating, verifying, and testing web services. They are highly scalable and configurable, allowing for custom test script creation and automation of various test activities. Users have found SoapUI useful in validating complex analysis platforms, establishing baselines for customization, and verifying APIs across multiple products with different interfaces like SOAP, REST, AMF, and JDBC.
Yahoo's Technical Account Management team relies on SoapUI to analyze SOAP messages and troubleshoot issues with ad platforms. Developers, integrators, and technical product managers use SoapUI for testing, automation, and support purposes. ReadyAPI is the go-to tool for API testing, making it easy to create and manage tests. It helps in verifying breakages, tracing back problems to ensure correct data returns, validating endpoint functionality, and load testing with specific scenarios using production data.
ReadyAPI supports API testing throughout the digital transformation process from prototyping to deployment. It is also used for API test automation and integration with Jenkins. Moreover, it assists in importing and structuring web services, API mockups, functional testing, security testing, deploying code to the cloud using containers, and integrating with third-party tools like Bamboo. With its comprehensive features for SOAP and REST service testing, ReadyAPI is recommended for a wide range of API testing needs.
Swagger Integration: Many users have praised the ability of SoapUI and ReadyApi to read in endpoints for a restful web service via a Swagger page or definitions file. This feature has been described as extremely helpful, with reviewers appreciating the time-saving aspect of not having to figure things out directly or rely on specs to build their requests. Additionally, the ability to easily update endpoints when they change was seen as a valuable feature.
Groovy Functions: Users have found the addition of groovy functions in SoapUI and ReadyApi to be very useful. They appreciate being able to use a programming language with Java libraries, which provides them with much more flexibility in how they process results and build follow-up requests.
Auto-generation of Test Cases: The auto-generation of test cases in SoapUI Pro has received high praise from users. It gives them a good head start on their testing efforts by building a set of tests that cover at least the happy path scenarios. Users also appreciate the visual guide provided by the test case GUI, which helps them structure their suites and scenarios effectively.
Cons:
- Lacking User Interface and Experience: Some users have found SoapUI's user interface to be confusing, old-fashioned, and not user-friendly. They have expressed the need for enhancements in terms of design and usability.
- Slow Performance: Several users have experienced slow performance with SoapUI, particularly when loading projects, switching between tabs, and during startup. They have also encountered errors related to insufficient memory, resulting in frustration and delays.
- Limited JMS Support and Third-Party Tools Dependency: Users have mentioned that SoapUI relies on an outdated 3rd party program called HermesJMS for JMS interactions. This limitation restricts their ability to run parallel test suites efficiently. Additionally, they have pointed out the limited support for JMS and the need for third-party tools for AMF method discovery.

ReadyAPI is my go to tool. We do a lot of API testing, and with ReadyAPI the tests are easy to create and manage. The business problems we are able to address using ReadyAPI in conjunction with our CI/CD we can easily verify if a breakage occurs. When our tests start failing, we can easily trace back what the problem is connected to and easily verify whether the data returning is correct or not.

ReadyAPI - the first choice for API automation
I have worked on different API automations like Ready API, Rest Assured, Katalon Studio, Karate etc. And after evaluating different tools we found that ReadyAPI is far superior to other API automation tools. It supports testing for Rest, SOAP, GraphQL, etc. It is a Scriptless API testing tool. Data-driven testing and Security testing are important features of this tool. It also has a feature to measure test coverage. So far Ready API is one of the best API automation tool I have come across in recent times.

API testing made simple
When our organization shifted focus to building software in micro-service-style architecture, we needed a good tool to test the APIs. ReadyAPI was a great solution as it makes automation and performance testing very easy. A lot of tools in the market are good for manual testing but not for automated ones.

Speeding up QA tasks
We use ReadyAPI almost daily for API testing and automating our test case suite for future runs. This helps us especially when doing regression testing of many of our components (around 10) and allows us to run the whole suite of +1000 tests in a couple of hours, and this is only for ONE team within the company!

To ReadyAPI or Not
ReadyAPI is used to validate endpoint functionality and for load testing. The main purpose of using the tool is to create specific scenarios that can be mocked by utilizing files with actual production data and then running it against different endpoints to confirm code is providing the correct response

Single Effective Solution for Various Aspects of API Development, Validation and Testing!
My team is responsible for developing and delivering APIs for various system integration requirements. ReadyAPI suite of solutions makes the process of developing, documenting, and testing steps very easy. We have used the SoapUI aspects for connecting with and validating external on-prem as well as cloud solutions, LoadAPI to test the API load on the system by generating up to 500 mock API calls per minute with the virtual users feature. This is a tool that is integral to our day-to-day operations.

Features of ReadyAPI Over Other Prodcuts
It's amazing software with loads of features readily available for both SOAP and REST services. I'm using ReadyAPI licensed version and I feel it's one place for all soap and rest service testing (including load test). I would strongly recommend this software for anyone [who] needs API testing in their day-to-day work.

ReadyAPI - quick, easy and highly functional
Phase Change is in active development with our AI product, Cobol Colleague. We use ReadyAPI to validate API responses continuously using our CI/CD pipeline, which integrates with Jenkins and Test Rail. We also use the LoadUI Pro capabilities to do quick load testing when necessary, re-using our ReadyAPI (SoapUI Pro) tests. This re-use capability was a large reason we went with ReadyAPI.

ReadyAPI - Must have tool for API testing
In our company, ReadyAPI is mainly used for testing API services.
Our main objective is to test services across many environments, also we need scripts to generate data, etc. That's why we started using ReadyAPI, which has different environment support and is easily changed in one click. ReadyAPI also supports Groovy scripts and WSDL.
ReadyAPI is a great tool to create test steps and their flows also has a nice assertions system.

My ReadyAPI experience
- It is used by my project
- It helps us with automating our APIs

Great product, if you're willing to put the work in
ReadyAPI is used at our organization primarily in a testing capacity, within I.T.
When new functionality is implemented and is exposed via web services, both development teams, and testing teams, use ReadyAPI to test the functionality against expected results.
LoadUI Pro is also used, in a more limited capacity, by testing teams, to conduct performance testing of the web service.

Best all-in-one solution for API testing!
Our teams have been using ReadyAPI tools ever since we decided to implement automated testing to test our API services. After successfully using ReadyAPI Test to test our RESTful services for many years, we're now also starting to use it to load test our APIs. It allows us to create extensive functional and performance tests and benefits greatly our entire department.

Nice tool to automate API functional testing
Used on several accounts and users. Many use the free version but we have quite a bit of us who use the Pro version. Used for automating functional testing.
I use ReadyAPI [(formerly SoapUI Pro, LoadUI Pro, & ServiceV Pro)] to quickly test web services. We consume services from many different vendors, clients, and other business partners. SOAP web services can be very tedious to manually test. ReadyAPI allows us to quickly import service definitions and test requests and uses cases before beginning proper implementation in our projects.
