I've been wanting to write a blog post on this for a long time, but have failed to come up with a concise way to describe the benefits. I usually say something like "Insomnia is better at being an HTTP client because that's all it does". If you use the less-HTTP-client-like feature of Postman like automated testing or mocking, and enjoy it, then Postman is the tool for you. However, if you don't need those features, Insomnia offers a better experience (my opinion) by means of a simpler, nicer, and easier interface. Oh, and Insomnia is also open source :)
