We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and Apigee 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 easy to set up."
"It is open source as well as relatively extendable. It allows us to extend and add additional functionality and features. Its deployment is also very easy."
"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 most valuable feature of this solution is that it is free."
"The product helps me get the expected performance from applications or servers and reduces costs. It also enhances the performance of the services and helped them reach their ultimate capacity."
"The solution's initial setup is easy."
"It is cost-effective and simple to use."
"It's a powerful tool that is open source."
"I simply like how you can personalize your products and put them into product categories. That's what I like the most."
"It has all the features necessary to work in anything from a basic scenario to advanced applications."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"One of the best parts of this solution is the implementation as we did not need to use code or out-of-box policies. When it comes to the cloud-based architecture, there is a high level of reliability."
"The opportunity for customization is really vast and it is a really good feature built into the product."
"It is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of Apigee is its simplicity of deploying an API and restricting access, like rate limit, with the API."
"It is easy to set up. It is on Google Platform, and there are multiple deployment models they support, which is great."
"JMeter output reports can be difficult to understand without training."
"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."
"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."
"Improving JMeter's sync time would be beneficial."
"If JMeter could provide a web version of editing, that would be good."
"In future releases, it would be helpful if there was an integration with ALM Octane."
"It has some proxy-based dependencies which require specific proxies to be set up or disabled, which causes problems."
"Apache should have a graphic interface."
"They need to work on the cost of the solution."
"It would be good if the Apigee management allowed us to be able to consolidate many operations into single one for the gateway functionality."
"The Apigee cloud admin UI could be more user-friendly by adding a few more features."
"We've encountered challenges in leveraging Connect functionality, prompting us to explore additional tools, such as Fergus, to address implementation and security issues."
"The number one area this solution could be improved is by implementing support. Support is not a part of this solution."
"The ability to work across different management solutions in a plug and play fashion would make it easier for faster uptake."
"An area for improvement would be to provide more information while troubleshooting."
"What my clients don't like is that the on-premises solution is not being treated and maintained as well as the cloud solution."
