"API Gateway Review"
What do you like best about API Gateway?

I love the GraphQL function! This allows me to get the data needed in a single query to server rather than having to make lots of calls. I also like the ability to use the Kona Self Defender to make sure there is no malicious activity occurring when calling APIs or in terms of caching and collecting data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about API Gateway?

It is very difficult to import your own APIs and have automated deployment. Akamai API Gateway has that functionality in its software but it is not easy to use and the learning curve is large. There aren't many helpful instructions or a user guide that is easy to follow in order to use some of the functions offered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
