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 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."
"We appreciate that the solution is free to use, as an open-source tool."
"JMeter is easy to use for a user who doesn't have too much knowledge of programming or certain languages."
"JMeter's most valuable feature is the RegEx Extractor."
"This solution is easier to use than any other tool in the market; there is not even a requirement to learn a lot of scripting in order to use it."
"The new version of the solution is stable."
"I appreciate JMeter's simplicity and power for performance testing."
"We really appreciate that the solution comes with a live community, which continuously provided plugins and support protocols."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"I like the fact that you can record and play the record of your step scripts, and UFT One creates the steps for you in the code base. After that, you can alter the code, and it's more of a natural language code."
"It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting."
"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 offers a wide range of testing."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good."
"The entire framework is very useful. It's easily integrable with Excel."
"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."
"JMeter is lagging when it comes to GUI performance testing because we need to install some third-party plugins for recording the GUI script, and the performance isn't very reliable."
"Automation is difficult in JMeter."
"Apache JMeter could use improvement in reporting. Currently, it isn't easy to generate reports in PDF format. While receiving reports in PDF format is possible, it requires a lot of customization. Additionally, when comparing the load test to others solutions it could improve."
"If the solution was GUI based, I believe that it would be more versatile."
"The solution needs more metrics for reporting."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"If JMeter could integrate with the EPM solution, it would be great. It could also be improved by offering more integrations for security. For example, most applications are secure with OpenID Connect protocols."
"Technical support could be improved."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification."
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
"The solution is expensive."
"They need to reduce the cost because it is pretty high. It's approximately $3,000 per user."
