We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Game testing and the API for apps are good.""Ability to use different frameworks."

More Bitbar Pros →

"I really like the recording because when I use the JMeter the scripting a lot of recording it takes me a lot of time to get used to. The BlazeMeter the recording is quick.""The on-the-fly test data improved our testing productivity a lot. The new test data features changed how we test the applications because there are different things we can do. We can use mock data or real data. We can also build data based on different formats.""BlazeMeter's most valuable feature is its cloud-based platform for performance testing.""Its most valuable features are its strong community support, user-friendly interface, and flexible capacity options.""The baseline comparison in BlazeMeter is very easy, especially considering the different tests that users can easily compare.""For me, the best part is that we can graphically see the test result at runtime. It helps us understand the behavior of the application during all stages of the test.""It has a unique programming dashboard that is very user-friendly.""It's a great platform because it's a SaaS solution, but it also builds the on-premises hosting solutions, so we have implemented a hybrid approach. BlazeMeter sets us up for our traditional hosting platforms and application stack as well as the modern cloud-based or SaaS-based application technologies."

Cons
"Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated.""Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved."

More Bitbar Cons →

"A possible improvement could be the integration with APM tools.""Scalability is an area of concern in BlazeMeter, where improvements are required.""The should be some visibility into load testing. I'd like to capture items via snapshots.""One problem, while we are executing a test, is that it will take some time to download data. Let's say I'm performance testing with a high-end load configuration. It takes a minimum of three minutes or so to start the test itself. That's the bad part of the performance testing... every time I rerun the same test, it is downloaded again... That means I have to wait for three to four minutes again.""The seamless integration with mobiles could be improved.""Integration is one of the things lacking in BlazeMeter compared to some newer options.""In terms of improvement, I would like to have the ability to customize reports.""The Timeline Report panel has no customization options. One feature that I missed was not having a time filter, which I had in ELK. For example, there are only filter requests for a time of less than 5 seconds."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."
  • More Bitbar Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The licensing fees are billed on a monthly basis and they cost approximately $100 for the basic plan."
  • "The solution is free and open source."
  • "The product isn't cheap, but it isn't the most expensive on the market. During our proof of concept, we discovered that you get what you pay for; we found a cheaper solution we tested to be full of bugs. Therefore, we are willing to pay the higher price tag for the quality BlazeMeter offers."
  • "The overall product is less costly than our past solutions, so we've absolutely saved money."
  • "It's consumption-based pricing but with a ceiling. They're called CVUs, or consumption variable units. We can use API testing, GUI testing, and test data, but everything gets converted into CVUs, so we are free to use the platform in its entirety without getting bogged down by a license for certain testing areas. We know for sure how much we are going to spend."
  • "My company has opted for a pay-as-you-go model, so we don't make use of the free version of the product."
  • "I rate the product's price two on a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive. The solution is not expensive."
  • "When compared with the cost of the licenses of other tools, BlazeMeter's license price is good."
