    ReadyAPI manages DataSources, Endpoints, and Environments much better than Postman. Postman is a little simpler implementation but has a Team Workspace that is powerful for Development handoffs and manual testing.

    Chose ReadyAPI
    Postman is simpler and super less expensive than ReadyAPI. In addition, the product continues to work even after the license has expired in comparison to ReadyAPI which requires you to purchase a new license every time. Is a turnoff.

    I have used a couple of products mentioned above. But the best thing about ReadyAPI is, it's a complete [package] for API testing. Not all software offers load testing, assertion, and reporting features. Also, lots of plugins, like Azure API Management, AWS API plugin features …

    Postman didn't have the flexibility of detailed assertions that we needed, although it was easy to use. Also their integration points weren't as straightforward.

    The main competitor for ReadyAPI was Postman. It is much more lightweight, but that means you also get fewer features.
    ReadyAPI also provides an ecosystem in which you can have an entire lifecycle for your API, if that is what you want - and are willing to put in the work to …

    Chose ReadyAPI
    I didn't have much experience with automation in Postman, but ReadyAPI seems more robust and in my opinion is able to cover many use cases. For me it was also easier to write the tests in SoapUI as many times it is matter of clicking and copying existing things.

    ReadyAPI provides intuitive GUI capabilities compared to their own open source product.

    When compared to Postman, ReadyAPI also supports SOAP based services, which is a saver especially when integrating with legacy or other third party systems.

    SoapUI Pro is good because you can start automating functional testing even if you don't have scripting knowledge. However, it doesn't work very well with GraphQL and so we had to use Insomnia is those cases.

    Chose ReadyAPI
    ReadyAPI vs Postman: ReadyAPI makes testing WSDL, SOAP, etc. much easier and quicker. Postman would require you to manually construct the SOAP envelopes and metadata XML, which is a lot of work for something that is meant to be a quick test.

    We selected SoapUI because it generates tests easily using drag and drop, and point-and-click. It gives powerful data-driven testing with data from files and databases. Scripts can be reused easily.
