We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and OpenText UFT One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two API Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is cost-effective and simple to use."
"A lot of things are valuable. It is free. It has a lot of features, such as report generation and integration with CI/CD, which makes it very competitive with the other paid solutions available in the market. It is a good solution."
"The most valuable feature in JMeter is the Thread Group, which helps us to see whether the performance is good."
"It's stable and reliable."
"Due to process automation, I don't have to prepare reports, making it the perfect solution."
"We use Apache JMeter for load testing, where we provide the throughput time."
"It is scalable. You can scale up to 1,000 users in JMeter. If you can put up four slave servers, you can easily ramp up to 1,000 users."
"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 has good out-of-the-box protocols."
"It offers a wide range of testing."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"We have used it for the web and Windows-based applications. It is very productive in terms of execution."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"The best feature of UFT by far is its compatibility with a large variety of products, tools and technologies. It is currently a challenge to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully automate tests for so many projects and environments."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"In this tool, automation in general is almost non-existent. Everything is done manually."
"The solution could use some sort of educational features to offer tips and hints to help users navigate it better. They should improve the manuals and help files."
"If JMeter could provide a web version of editing, that would be good."
"The solution's setup could be easier and security could be improved to minimize vulnerabilities."
"Apache JMeter could be a more user-friendly product from the end user's perspective."
"There are certain things like we can't merge custom metrics into the JMeter reports. We're limited to JMeter metrics, and other server metrics can't be integrated with JMeter dashboard. This forces us to rely on another tool."
"The tool should be made a bit more robust, and better support should be made available."
"Both scalability and stability could be improved in Apache JMeter."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"The solution does not have proper scripting."
"I would like Micro Focus to provide more information on their portal about their newer products. The information about UFT One was outdated. The image recognition features could also be better."
"I would want to see a significant improvement in the tool's features. The most significant enhancements are support for panel execution and integration with DevSecOps."
"The AI feature needs improvement. For banking applications, we input formatted text from documents, but the AI feature is recognizing three fields as one field, e.g., for a phone number, it puts all 10 digits in the international code or country code. Then, the script fails."
"One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"They need to reduce the cost because it is pretty high. It's approximately $3,000 per user."
"The UA objects are sometimes hard to recognize, so the coverage should be increased. Open-source alternatives have a broad scope. Also, it's sometimes difficult to make connections between two of the components in the UFT mobile center. It should be easier to set up the wireless solution because we have to set both. We directly integrate Selenium and APM, so we should try to cover all the features they have in APM and Selenium with the UFT mobile."
