Anyone have any experience with how this compares to Postman?



Paw is worth the money. I have been using it for two years and I really enjoy working with it. The UI/UX is lightyears ahead of everything else I have tried. I haven’t used Paw for Teams but it seems expensive, especially for existing license holders.


I've found Paw to have much better UX than Postman. Plus it's not an Electron app which is always nice.


Maybe I'm lucky, but I've used Postman quite a bit and never ran into an issue caused by it being Electron based. For that matter, my favorite code editor, VS Code, is in that same boat.


I hate non-native apps. VS Code is so good it's forcing me to grudgingly admit that there can be good exceptions.


Paw has better UX. Just feels better than Postman. I'll always support native apps over Electron. Electron can do die in a ditch.


Postman free is 1000 API calls/month if I see this correctly, above it's $8/month subscription.

I'd rather buy Paw.

Edit: Sorry, see comment. Thanks!


This is slightly misleading, that is only for their monitoring service. You can make (and I do) as many manual requests as you want.


In short, I'm a big fan of PAW after spending some time with both.

Check out this thread from one of the other times it was posted: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12190047


significantly more buggy in my experience (this was a few months ago though)
