I've been using the free version of Postman for API testing for quite some time, but it's starting to feel restrictive with user limits and collection runs. I'm considering whether it's worth it to upgrade to the paid plan or if I should explore alternative tools. What do you think?

I’m using the paid version of Postman since my company covers it, but if I had it my way, I'd switch to something like Bruno. It seems simpler!
I avoid Postman altogether now. I only use cloud-free tools for API testing. They're much more straightforward and less annoying.
Yeah, I used to rely heavily on Postman, but I eventually switched to coding my test suites in a familiar programming language. It's way better for control and flexibility. Also, for quick tests, I found Bruno to be a handy free option and there’s an HTTP plugin for VS Code that works well too!
Postman is increasingly becoming more of a hassle. It’s starting to feel like a heavy boulder rolling downhill; it just keeps getting worse. Have you checked out any up-and-coming tools?
Yeah, and it's still considered the best! Just goes to show how tough the competition is in this space.

Totally agree! Postman was useful, but switching has been a breath of fresh air.
