SoapUI is a platform-independent WebService automation tool that provides capabilities for both functional and non-function automation. Additionally, SoapUI supports testing for both SOAP and REST APIs. Moreover, SoapUI supports all of the major protocols such as SOAP, REST, JMS, JDBC, WSDL, JSON, and XML, etc.
REST is easier to use for the most part and is more flexible. It has the following advantages when compared to SOAP: Uses easy to understand standards like swagger and OpenAPI Specification 3.0. Smaller learning curve.
Postman is a REST Client that runs as an application in the Chrome browser. You can use it to create API definitions, and then group the created definitions in "collections". These collections can then be imported to SoapUI and ReadyAPI to create robust test cases complete with data-driven scenarios.
Some basic starter differences:- Postman is lightweight browser based tool. easy to use, easy to share tests b/w team members by export option,
SoapUI is also easy to use with SoapUI you integrate it with GIT/SVN directly for Checkin and checkout your scripts.
SoapUI supports Groovy Scripting, Postman don't for basic test scenarios you can use postman, if there is a need for logical based decision making calls SoapUI is best.
