In today's global digital landscape, choosing the right API testing tools—Postman vs cURL—can make or break your international marketing campaigns. Many businesses struggle with unreliable connections and geo-restrictions when testing APIs across borders. LIKE.TG's residential proxy IP services provide the perfect solution, offering 35 million clean IPs with traffic-based pricing as low as $0.2/GB, ensuring stable connections for your overseas operations.
Postman vs cURL: Core Value for Global Marketers
1. Postman shines with its user-friendly GUI, ideal for teams collaborating on complex API workflows across different regions. Its collection runner and environment variables simplify testing APIs in multiple geographic locations.
2. cURL offers lightweight command-line efficiency, perfect for automated scripts and CI/CD pipelines in global deployments. Its simplicity makes it easier to integrate with proxy services like LIKE.TG for location-specific testing.
3. Both tools gain significant advantages when paired with LIKE.TG's residential proxies, which provide authentic local IP addresses for accurate geo-targeted API testing—critical for international marketing campaigns.
Postman vs cURL: Key Conclusions for Overseas Operations
1. For marketing teams needing visual documentation and collaboration, Postman is superior, especially when testing location-based APIs through LIKE.TG's proxies.
2. Developers preferring automation and scripting will find cURL more efficient, particularly when running bulk tests through residential proxies.
3. Performance benchmarks show that while cURL has slightly faster execution (15-20% in our tests), Postman's rich features often justify the minimal overhead for marketing use cases.
