It helps to complete my day to day testing tasks with more efficiently. It saves my time.
01 . Any type of users (Beginners or Experts for API testing) can easily adopt to the user-interface and testing process by using "soap-UI" for couple of hours. And now i'm expert at this software. 02. By defining variables, you can customize parameter values without hard coding the values in whole test-case. 03. You can also use external data sheets to retrieve data to your executions. 04. ...
01. Some times it's little bit slow when you work with large test cases. 02. When generating test results, soap ui open source doesn't give you much options comparing to pro version. 03. you need to know about "Groovy Scripts" If you want to create automated test plans in SoapUI open source version. 04. Subscription plan prices are bit high if you planned to go through Pro versions. Other than that there are no any cons to mention about this product.

Overall I have very good experience with SOAPUI. No least things to comment.
I have used SoapUi for more than 5 years and its been highly useful interms of running jobs, API requests and creating our own automated script runner for SOAP requests
I dont have any least things to say about this software as I used it on daily basis to regularly check request/response with the backend system

It was the first API testing tool I used, like 10 years ago and I am still using SoapUI for a bunch of API testing project, even Soap and Rest.
Simplicity and easy-to-use. It is very easy to set up a Soap/Rest project and start working with those APIs. I use SoapUI mostly for testing purpose, it is possible to generate differents request for the same end-point and test different combination of data.
The community edition contains some known bugs related to the UI Editor. Sometimes the software crashes and user needs to reset it.

SoapUI does the majority of what we need fine. We like that it loads sample requests from the service you attach to it, it is useful for cases like ours where you are not provided documentation on the request format. However, our biggest issue came from this feature being unable to be used for any large service, which unfortunately for us means we cannot load requests for several of our more important services.
We use an antiquated / custom Soap service which we found was unable to be read by some other SOAP parsers. This software was the only one we found that was able to do the job.
I believe the program was written in Java and has a huge fault when we use it. One of our SOAP services has 100+ endpoints, so much so that SoapUI can't handle loading sample requests for the entire endpoint and will freeze the computer. We have never been able to find a workaround for this. It works fine for our smaller services but once the services get big with large requests, it will crash 1/4 or 1/3 of the way through its loading.

I have been using it to test APIs between two or more different systems. It is free to use tool which has been leveraged by our project and has been helping us to automate API tests. It helps with debugging of the APIs since it supports REST and SOAP troubleshooting. Additional plug in support and integration with GIT and Jenkins helps with CICD pipeline. Execution on multiple environments such as on datasource layer, integration layer and end to end layer has never been made so easy. One of the best open source API tool.
- Support calls to RESTful APIs - Easy script assertions and easy to debug web services and locate errors - Easy to use and implement, very user friendly interface - Additional Plugins available, Docker Support. - Integration with JENKINS and GIT. - OpenSource, free to use
- Performance issues, sometimes it is difficult to find if a request was sent. - Compiling errors before running should be inbuild for groovy scripting - Documentation needs to be improved. - Requires knowledge of groovy scripts in order to use it
