| Compare | Mocky | G2 |
|---|---|---|
| Verdict | Depends | Depends |
| Best for | Throwaway API stubs for demos | B2B software buyers shortlisting tools |
| Who it's not for | Anything production or long-lived . reliability questioned | Vendors without five-figure budgets |
| Privacy | No known vulnerabilities disclosed, but no security page exists and the free service has been abused in GRU-linked phishing campaigns.⁸ | No public security page found; UpGuard reports no phishing; G2's own DPA references a past data breach. |
| Support quality | No support evidence found | Trustpilot and BBB complaints about G2's service |
| Public sentiment | The few G2 reviewers rate it 4.0/5 and love the simplicity, while Reddit threads question whether the service is still reliable.¹ | Buyers find G2 useful for breadth, but sentiment on G2's own service skews negative on Trustpilot and Redditors weigh it against Capterra and Trustpilot. |
| Biggest gotcha | Mock URLs aren't private . never embed real credentials or personal data.⁴ | Vendor contracts are negotiated and opaque; budget five figures annually before committing. |
