Very pleased with my overall experience. Instead of trial and hit, i can easily get to where i need to be using SoapUI #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros SoapUI has made writing code for SOAP requests easier than it has ever been. All you need is a wsdl file or url and it'll break it down to requests along with it's parameters. You can even send requests and recieve response using SoapUI #### Cons One thing that can be added here is the code in multiple languages for the sent request. Many other platforms e.g. postman does that so why not? --- ### Best tool for testing your web services and make the business to perform their test success in real - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: shaik a. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The best part of the tool is its GUI which helps us to test the SOAP and the best point is its open source and freely available. Its functional testing as a part includes the drag and drop and performing complex scenarios. We can also perform security testing load testing at a single glance.We can maintain our tests with a few clicks. Its been used by various enterprise business services companies and are making their business work flow simplier #### Cons There is nothing least about this but this need to be upgraded and come up with few bug fixes sometimes the page gets slow in responding this need to brought and overcome in next editions and versions --- ### Go to solution for testing APIs - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nicolaos K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Free license. ease of use. depth of features #### Cons Not intuitive for non-technical users. not attractive --- ### Very happy with 'Soap UI'. Best web service testing tool i ever used. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Ruwani A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. It helped me to achieve my project testing goals in time. No need to test API's one by one anymore. I have wrote test cases for all of my API's. I'm so satisfied with this tool. I just need a one click to execute my test cases. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This is my favorite web service testing tool (Rest and Soap Web Service). Beautiful and user friendly UI. I can execute test cases as batches. Reporting functions are also good. It's compatible with 'Groovy' language. Data parametrization is also very helpful when testing API's. It comes with major nun-functional testing types such as load testing, performance testing, stress testing, security testing. I have tested successfully more than 150 API's by using 'Soap UI'. Really helpful. #### Cons It's better if they can improve reporting functionalities in 'Soap UI' open-source edition. Nothing else. It's perfect.! --- ### Good to work with WebServices - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Fernando d. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used other for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use it to many purposes, but the mostly used (here in Brazil) is for "Nota Fiscal" webservices, because every now and then, they change something so you need to debug and see what is happening or how to implement the new or changed tags into your system. Here is when SoapUI becomes handy, it will help you track the response structure and values mor easily. I love it! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I like it because you learn how to use it very quickly, then you can get very much more productive by using SoapUI to create, test, debug and validate WebServices. You can explore resulting XML payload in a very convenient way, with expansible nodes. #### Cons There is nothing I don't like in SoapUI, really, it is a very good tool. If I have to suggest something to improve, maybe they could improve the connections management. When you use it the first time you can get confused and start creating connections every time you open the tool and try to get response from a previously viewed WebService. I guess it could be simpler by starting with a saved services list then show all the connections you already have for that service. --- ### SoapUI - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Muhammad Adil M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. If you are not a IT or programming specialist still it will be easy enough to operate. User interface is plain simple and useful. Reporting module is quite useful and helps a lot. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Best tool for asynchronous API testing. Very easy to operate and most importantly maintain logs for any data during test cycle. Easy to segregate between REST and SOAP based APIs. Customization of parameters and values is really easy and on the go. #### Cons Bit slow to setup for new project. Crashing history still exist while execution of project. Cache management is not so good. --- ### Helpful in every organisation - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nitish D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I am using this software from pdt 2 years. It is very useful in term of testing. You can create, modify the data with the help of xmls. Sometime lengthy xmls can slow down the speed. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros SoapUI is best open source in terms of testing. Easily user can create and modify the data. Files can be store in it so that next time we can access the same files. UI is very good and easy to use. #### Cons Sometimes it took too much time to load the heavy data file and also crashes sometime. Because of which all the data can be lost. For beginners it is not very much user friendly. --- ### SoapUI - good or bad? - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Manoj P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I found it very useful for testing the product I have been working on. I could get my team to work simultaneously on same module dividing the client and server side implementation between them. Though it's bit tough to find out where and how to add certificates, but we could do that and that way can test the security of the software we are implementing. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros 1. Writting the xml requests and editing them is very easy. 2. Useful for developer to test the services without having UI ready. That way 2 modules can be implemented in parallel. 3. Multiple projects can be loaded and tested simultaneously and can be saved for later testing. 4. Since it's easy to use, testers can use it to test the functionality without having much knowledge of coding etc. Just need little knowledge of writing xml requests. #### Cons 1. Configuration/Settings are not very user friendly. 2. Initial load time of software is longer than expected. --- ### Automate API Testing - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Vikrant S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

We can do security testing,load testing, Functional testing , SQL injection and many other features. #### Cons Therr is nothing i dislike with Soap UI. --- Showing 1 - 10 of 168 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/soapui-profile/reviews/) ## SoapUI Popular Comparisons [BrowserStack vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/browserstack-profile/vs/soapui/)[TestMu AI vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/compare/41699-testmu-ai/vs/311034-soapui/)[ACCELQ vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/accelq-profile/vs/soapui/)[Katalon Studio vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/katalon-studio-profile/vs/soapui/)[Automation Anywhere vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/bpm/automation-anywhere-profile/vs/soapui/)[UiPath vs SoapUI](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/soapui-profile/vs/uipath/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/automation-testing/soapui-profile/alternatives/) ## See what companies are saying about Software Advice
