Parasoft SOAtest Review
It provides easy handling of RESTful API's, but more scalability is needed, especially when testing in elastics/cloud platforms.
What is most valuable?

I've used it for six months.
What was my experience with deployment of the solution?
No issues encountered.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
No issues encountered.

How are customer service and technical support?
Customer Service:
8/10.
Technical Support:9/10.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We previously used JMeter and were offered better support from Parasoft. As well as this, the reports and user friendliness of SOAtest helped us make the decision to switch.
How was the initial setup?
It's very easy to set up and doesn't take much time. You don't need installation expertise to set it up.
What about the implementation team?
We used a vendor team from Parasoft themselves who were very good.
What was our ROI?
It's 100%.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price is a little expensive in terms of users.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We evaluated JMeter as well, which was our existing product.
What other advice do I have?
Even validate SOASTA tool too.
