We evaluated a handful of APIM solutions and Tyk ended up as our clear favourite. Here are a couple of points which to us made Tyk stand out over other solutions: - Truely On-Premise and open source option without any "phone home mechanisms" (other vendors tend to push their Cloud/Hybrid solutions) - Very easy to set up on Kubernetes - Excellent choices of technologies which fit our existing tech stack (e.g. Postgres, Keycloak, Redis) - Config as code ("Tyk Operator") - Portal highly customizable via custom themes - Well designed and intuitive UI (we found other solutions to often have overloaded UIs and/or a worse UX) - Fair pricing - Amazing communication and interactions with Tyk people, highly professional processes and materials - In general a very well thought out solution

Tyk is very customised and user friendly .

Its a simple gateway solution and it does its best at it . The support is good.. we asked for a feature request for an ldap authentication feature for dev portal and they implemented that in couple of days . We checked with Kong GW and they denied to implement it .We were able to seamlessly migrate from another GW too. Pretty stable and never had an issue in the last 4 years.
