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."The thread groups, samplers, and listeners, which are all determined by the script's requirements, are the most valuable features of this solution."
"It's a powerful tool that is open source."
"It's stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of Apache JMeter is its popularity. It is the best open-source tool with all the features needed."
"Due to process automation, I don't have to prepare reports, making it the perfect solution."
"JMeter is basically the art of the entire performance testing process."
"Very user-friendly and easy to use."
"We find the load testing feature valuable."
"Record and Replay to ease onboarding of new users."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis."
"With frequent releases, using automation to perform regression testing can save us huge amount of time and resources."
"It's simple to set up."
"Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes."
"Compared to other products, UFT One is better, faster, and more accurate."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain."
"It should start supporting the presentation layer. It currently provides performance testing specifically at the application and API level. It can be extended to the presentation layer, which includes mainly Angular and React frameworks. It should also be easy to use and easy to train people."
"The memory utilization in JMeter is very poor."
"One of the drawbacks of JMeter is that it can't handle a large amount of load, which forces us to switch to other tools when we need to load more than a 5,000 or 10,000 user load."
"Currently, the integration pipeline is implemented by using Jenkins or a similar tool platform. These are continuous integration tools. As far as I know, integration is done by using custom scripts. It would be good if the integration with a continuous integration pipeline, like Jenkins or Hudson, can be done out of the box without using a script."
"The reporting is not very good."
"You really need a technical team in order to really utilize the product."
"The solution's setup could be easier and security could be improved to minimize vulnerabilities."
"Apache JMeter's UI can be made more colorful."
"One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"The solution is expensive."
"We have had some issues with stability, where it crashes sometimes."
"Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected."
"You have to deal with issues such as the firewall and how can the tool talk with the application, i.e., if the application is on a company network and so on. That, of course, is important to figure out."
"They should include an automated feature to load backlog tests."
"They need to reduce the licensing cost. There's pushback from customers because of the cost."
