Software categories
Browse software categories and compare the tools developers use to build, ship and run their products.
Compare API gateway software for routing, access control, and APIs generated from data. These tools put keys, limits, and documentation in front of services you already run, or build the API from a database.
Compare application performance monitoring software for response time, errors, and throughput. These tools measure a running application, alert when it slows down or fails, and show which request or dependency caused it.
Compare application security software for code, dependencies, cloud, and the browser. These tools cover vulnerability scanning, automated fixes, and client-side threats such as script injection, account takeover, and payment-page tampering.
Compare certification platforms for authoring, delivering, and grading exams. These tools run knowledge tests and hands-on exams, then record the score and issue the credential.
Compare data integration software for ETL, ELT, change data capture, and reverse ETL. These tools move and transform data between apps, databases, and warehouses, with a low-code builder or an API.
Compare email gateway software for transactional mail, SMTP delivery, and domain authentication. These tools send password resets, receipts, and other application email without running a mail server.
Compare subscription analytics software for MRR, churn, retention, and forecasts. These tools read a billing system and turn charges, upgrades, and cancellations into SaaS metrics.
