Deployment is very easy and the configuration is excellent and the Apigee Sense is ready to go. The platform has an effective centralized Cloud monitoring capabilities and the data visual analytics that are generated are useful to the business production. Excellent portals and the features are easy to custom when starting with the platform and the project documentation tools are reliable.

If you are making system upgrade project and you have existing system working and you want to imitate messages that are going in production but without making any data loads or switch it’s very suitable and convenient software. It serves well in manual test scenarios but wouldn’t be as good in case of mass tests.

SoapUI Open Source is free, which is good for light use or simple things here and there. There is a Pro version that makes things more user-friendly. I also like that custom code can also be used for doing more complicated tasks. I like that SoapUI can have a process/flow (conditional/loop/waits/etc.) set up for scripting purposes, which is good for beginners and light users. However, I think the user interface has room for improvement.
