Best Tool for Starting Out
What do you like best about the product?
As a computer science student and an upcoming intern, my experience with Kong API Gateway has been quite enlightening. Navigating the complexities of modern application development, particularly in the world of APIs and microservices, Kong has proven to be a robust tool that helps between theoretical knowledge and practical application.
The first thing that stood out about Kong is its extensive and organized documentation. As someone new to the field, the clear examples and detailed explanations made the initial setup and configuration straightforward.Kong’s plugin architecture is particularly impressive. It allows for easy customization and enhancement of the API gateway functionalities.Kong’s compatibility with containerized environments like Kubernetes is also particularly beneficial.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Kong offers a free open-source version, some advanced features are only available in the paid versions. This is a limitaction for me as I cant utilise them. Also I have somtimes noticed that CPU usage also spikes abnormally when utilising Kong.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have utilised to solve routing requests quite efficiently using Kong. Furthermore it gives a decent service in term of monitoring and logging which earlier had to be configured explicitly for my application.

Kong enterprise and Kong Konnect review.
What do you like best about the product?
The software is very easy to implement. We use docker on a linux VM. The Kong API gateway is easily configurable for defining services and routes. We take advantage of both basic authorization and key authorization for our security needs. The API gateway is used for both production and non-production environments. We have had some needs for support. We have found that customer support is quick in responding to tickets to help us resolve the issue or question. We recently started using Konnect to control our configurations for easier data plane management.
What do you dislike about the product?
The one thing that we don't really like is the UI and the filtering ability. The filter feature is good. But, feel that the filter should stay in place until you change it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The gateway is primarily used as a security front end for routing to our services.

As of now we couldnt fond any issues with product. Its support is the best.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps to build low latency gateway for our internal infra across the globe.
Robust solutions with wide array of plugins
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Kong is its ease of use and configuration. There are countless plugins for various use cases, including different types of authorization like OAuth2, SAML, and OIDC. Additionally, there is an admin API and a Kong Manager UI, which make it easy to view configurations for each service, route, and plugin individually.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it frustrating that there isn't a clear way to view metrics like latency in Kong. Recently, we had an issue with one of our upstream services, and it would have been helpful to see Kong analytics to identify which endpoint had problems or which plugins were causing issues. Observability in Kong needs improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us to publish a diverse array of services behind a central gateway so that it appears coherent for all of our customers, both internal and external.
