Best Postman Alternative Tools in 2025?

Hey everyone,

I’ve been using Postman for about 3 years now for API testing and documentation in our small dev team. Recently though, I’m finding it increasingly bloated and resource-heavy - my laptop fan goes crazy whenever I have it open for more than 20 minutes. Plus, since they’ve moved more features behind the paid plans, I’m wondering if it’s time to look elsewhere.

We mainly use it for REST API testing, environment management, and occasionally for documenting our APIs for the frontend team.

Has anyone switched from Postman to something else recently? What are you using, and how does it compare?

Thanks in advance!

I recently faced similar challenges with Postman and after evaluating several alternatives, our team migrated to Apidog about 6 months ago - it’s been a significant improvement for our workflow.

Apidog offers a comprehensive solution that covers API design, debugging, testing, and documentation in a more resource-efficient package. Guess you can have a try!
