"It provides clients with an understanding of application and system performance."
"Enables us to test most of the products and projects that we have across all the different technologies, without having to look at other tools."
"The capabilities and flexibility of the Controller, the ability to monitor the systems under test, and the comprehensive results Analysis which saves a great deal of time."
"The ability to do multithreading. That's available in any performance testing tool, but the number of protocols that this particular tool supports has been very good."
"Graph monitoring is a valuable feature."
"The stability of Micro Focus LoadRunner Professional is very high. It is the leading tool for stability."
"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."
"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."
"Technical support is great."
"The product is pretty heavy and should be more lightweight."
"The product is not stable and reliable in the version we are currently using."
"Improvement wise, the pipeline should be enabled. It should be embedded as part of the tool itself rather than going with third-party tools. Monitoring should be more effective as well."
"Licensing costs could be reduced."
"The only scenario we see a complexity is when we have single-page applications where JavaScript is talking to the server and coming back. That's the only scenario where we find some difficulties."
"Compared to some other vendors, there is a lack of community support."
"I also use the TrueClient feature for browser-based testing. I found the TrueClient feature to be a bit difficult to use and not very user-friendly for automating scripts."
"The tool should consider releasing a SaaS version since it makes more sense nowadays."
"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."
"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."
