We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and Eggplant Performance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Performance Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."JMeter is easy to use for a user who doesn't have too much knowledge of programming or certain languages."
"I like the fact that JMeter integrates well with other tools."
"It's stable and reliable."
"When someone in our organization wants to test web applications, they use Apache JMeter since they face no hurdles while using the solution."
"The most valuable feature in JMeter is the Thread Group, which helps us to see whether the performance is good."
"When there's a high number of TPS I can achieve more transactions per seconds given the hyper-limitations."
"It's a powerful tool that is open source."
"We use Apache JMeter for load testing, where we provide the throughput time."
"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"It is not a conventional test automation tool. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects. It makes it the best in the class."
"We don't have a big team of people that can watch the dials and check that everything is okay. We're doing a lot of the monitoring of our website and our product at the side of the desk. We need a solution that does a lot for us, and that's what Eggplant does."
"JMeter output reports can be difficult to understand without training."
"The UI of the solution needs to be better. The UI takes up a lot of our bandwidth."
"The solution's setup could be easier and security could be improved to minimize vulnerabilities."
"JMeter's reporting is extremely rudimentary. The fundamental reporting mechanisms need to be drastically improved. It doesn't utilize an automatic session management mechanism or methods other tools use like parsing cookies and variables. Everything needs to be done manually. There's no automation."
"Modeling a test is difficult. If you don't have much knowledge, you won't be able to do it easily. Testing APIs is also difficult."
"The installation needs some work. It could be simplified."
"It should be easier to combine multiple scripts. If you have multiple scripts, you need to write a new script to combine those scripts. The virtual user generator is slow."
"The plug-ins make the reports heavy and they have to be run in non-GUI mode."
"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used."
