User Testimonials
	Mashery (now part of Boomi)	Akana
Likelihood to Recommend	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 Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
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 Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic

Alternatives Considered	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.
