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."The most valuable feature for us is the available information on the forums and to be able to discuss and get answers from the people that are involved in using this tool."
"The solution's initial setup is easy."
"The biggest thing I liked about it is that there is a huge user base out there, and being shareware and being Apache, if I have any question on how to get something done, I get 18 different answers. Out of those, there would be at least a few good approaches for what I was trying to do. So, the support system out there is most valuable."
"The ease of use is the solution's most valuable feature. Also, the ability to easily create test cases is also very good. It's easy to just ramp up on the solution."
"JMeter is easy to use for a user who doesn't have too much knowledge of programming or certain languages."
"This solution is very user-friendly, and allows for a lot of data capture when testing."
"The recording and playback functionality is helpful."
"JMeter's most valuable feature is the RegEx Extractor."
"Compared to other tools, there is not a whole lot to Stress Stimulus UI. This makes it easy to use, be it while scripting, executing, or having to train someone new to the team."
"Designed to be a modern testing tool, StresStimulus made it easy for us to upgrade from an older deprecated testing tool and adapt to Agile DevOps testing principles by shifting left with performance testing."
"Technical support is great."
"The reports in Apache JMeter could improve."
"The stability could be a bit better."
"The memory utilization in JMeter is very poor."
"We would like more documentation to be provided for the advanced level features that are available in this solution, in order to improve development."
"The reporting is not very good."
"Apache JMeter may have difficulty recognizing dynamic objects in some critical cases, which can lead to challenges in terms of object identification."
"The initial setup is complex and needs to be upgraded."
"It's not easy to get the data from one place or to do customizations."
"StresStimulus has a dedicated blog where users of the tool can log new feature requests or enhancements to existing features."
"Result analysis (snap-out tabs for side-by-side comparisons) need improvement."
"We run tests on SQL statements and stored procedures directly, even before integrating with UI. I wish there were a way to connect to my application DB and run SQL queries using a JDBC connection."
