Overall Satisfaction with IBM API Connect

We use IBM API Connect very extensively in our organisation, with huge success. Since starting with IBM API Connect in 2017, a lot of business clusters got on board, hosting their API's on IBM API Connect. We primarily run a provider model approach, we have a Centre of Excellence set up, and we do a review of all API's to conform to the bank's standards. The tool set is mature, easy to use and manage, good choice for any company to get to the next level. This is surely the way to go to enable your business clusters to reach that competitive level in a sometimes challenging business environment.

Pros

  • Easy to manage

  • Adabrability

Cons

It puts the control of your business processes in the hands of the people that knows it best.
Data power is aligned in our environment primarily for security.
