Quite easy to setup an API, and expand it once setup. Lots of support both from their technical team and also integration with other companies using this platform for their system. > > **Cons**: It is very CPU intensive, I have built a bespoke API to run side by side this one, using the same DB, SPs, Server infrastructure but different technology for the API. The difference in the resources required is substantial, which means we are moving our more intensive systems away from this. It is also a quirky system, having to reset the cache when you alter the DB, with a learning curve to get your way around the system. > > It did what we needed for a time, and I cant fault it for that. For some other software we use, that this has integrated well with, we will keep using it. However, for current development, and anything we expect to be high load, we have moved away in favor of developing our own API. ----- ### "Expose your database with an API" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 February 2019* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Authentication and API is out-of-the-box The free version includes many features It saves a lot of time if you just want to use the basic REST API features > > **Cons**: Upgrading to a new version can be a massive pain Debugging problems is very difficult if not impossible sometimes Stored procedures are not fully supported The API options to query a database are not as powerful as the options a SQL language provides > > We implemented Dreamfactory to integrate Salesforce with an ERP software that didn't have an API, constrained by a limited budget which didn't allow us to go for a more complex middleware. The solution allowed us to quickly send and retrieve records from the ERP, and run processes using SQL stored procedures which gave us a bit of a headache at the beginning because of lack of full support. ----- ### "Useful but hard to use" — 3.0/5 > **Taj** | *6 February 2019* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: I liked the concept of the product. And it is good at what it does. > > **Cons**: 1. Nested Object filter for database tables apis is hard. more often we had to write custom code to implement. 2. Alternate authentication setup is hard. we tried adding alternate authentication and failed, Also connected with customer support and still failed to add customer authencation. 3. Installation steps do fail to setup it smoothly i got into a lot of issues even after following exact steps for installation on ubuntu16 ----- ### "Great platform, well done\!" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *29 January 2019* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Great Security and very complete and user friendly documentation. Example apps get your going quick\! > > **Cons**: I cant think of anything not to like. In the beginning it might be a little overwhelming, but once you have read the documentation and looked at the samples apps, you on your way. > > Overall a great product that will assist you to speed up your development process\! ----- ### "DreamFactory is like Ruby on Rails for APIs" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *30 January 2019* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: DreamFactory is the definition of convention over configuration\! It has a great user format that allows us to build and streamline our APIs in a simple and rapid method without coding. I honestly couldn't imagine building APIs without DreamFactory in the future. > > **Cons**: When we first started using DreamFactory, I was frustrated with its short time to live, but we were quickly able to change a setting that extended the session time - I think we'll be using DreamFactory for many years to come. > > Their support team is excellent\! We had some difficulties connecting less common databases and they helped us navigate a solution in an amazing time.
