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 easy to set up."
"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."
"When someone in our organization wants to test web applications, they use Apache JMeter since they face no hurdles while using the solution."
"I appreciate JMeter's simplicity and power for performance testing."
"The features that I appreciate are quite basic. It is easy to ramp up the threads and start calling the application. A lot of connectors can already be found within Apache JMeter, but we are not using the entire set because the integration between the customers and platform is based on HTTP. We are just going to produce lots of HTTP sequences."
"I like the fact that JMeter integrates well with other tools."
"JMeter is a free tool with a large user population, which comes in handy because we have a vast knowledge base to tap into when needed. It's also easier to hire consultants who know JMeter."
"Apache JMeter is quite flexible."
"I find UFT One to be very good for thick clients, which are non-browser applications."
"My company has not had an issue with OpenText UFT One since we have been using it for the past three to four years."
"I like the fact that we can use LeanFT with our UFT licenses as well."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"Micro Focus UFT One is a great tool and can be used in a variety of ways."
"It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"Compared to other products, UFT One is better, faster, and more accurate."
"If JMeter could provide a web version of editing, that would be good."
"You really need a technical team in order to really utilize the product."
"The installation needs some work. It could be simplified."
"The plug-ins make the reports heavy and they have to be run in non-GUI mode."
"JMeter should be more stable. Every time there is a new release coming up, a lot of its older functionalities or the new functionalities that are brought in are not very well-documented. It should be documented properly, and there should be proper use cases."
"It will be much easier, and beneficial for the individual to run it on their own machines rather than having a high-end infrastructure, more CPUs, or more memory that has been consumed by Apache JMeter."
"They should improve the solution on its UI front."
"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."
"The solution is expensive."
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."
"Jumping to functions is supported from any Action/BPT Component code, but not from inside a function library where the target function exists in another library file. Workaround: Select search entire project for the function."
"I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason."
"The artificial intelligence functionality is applicable only on the web, and it should be expanded to cover non-web applications as well."
"[Tech support is] not a 10 because what happens with some of our issues is that we might not get a patch quickly and we have to hold on to an application until we get a proper solution."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"They should include an automated feature to load backlog tests."
