I looked into other options, such as Bluehost, SmartBear, Epic, and LoadRunner but Jmeter proved to be sufficient for our needs.

We chose JMeter based on its pricing structure.

I have a different technology stack, such as BI tools like Tableau, Microsoft Strategy, and custom data applications. In some cases, I feel that Apache JMeter is not suitable. So, I am looking out for a different tool.

We are not switching because we have several testing teams, and we sell them to several customers. So the solution sometimes is not ours; it's the customer's, and they provide some licenses because usually, companies like Vodafone have corporate licensing. They can provide licensing without being responsible for it. 

We also have our own solutions, but we are not sometimes responsive before saying I don't want to use this or I don't want to use that. Because we are an outsourcing company, we put people accordingly to the field desired by our customers. So if I need a Selenium expert or an Optimum or TestRail, whatever, I go to the market, and I outsource this to the customer.

I evaluated SoapUI, Postman, and Visual Studio. JMeter was more reliable compared to these options.

We've looked at Silk Impact and Load Balancer in the past. Each of these solutions offers a few different functionalities that aren't necessarily available on JMeter. For example, on both, there are more network features available that aren't included in JMeter and you can model your load and structure with them as well.

We looked into Micro Focus and Cavisson NetStorm. However, they were licensed tools, and we decided against them.

The solution is comparable to LoadRunner because it works with multiple plugins but is free to use.

I understand the Apache also has something called BlazeMeter, which is something I recently looked into.

Before we chose JMeter, we looked at NeoLoad, but it looked to have the same issues surrounding licensing that LoadRunner did.

I like LoadRunner better, although I might be biased because I do have LoadRunner experience. I am a little more familiar with it. I was leaning towards LoadRunner.
