We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
"It has helped us simulate heavy load situations so we can fix performance issues ahead of time." "BlazeMeter has allowed us to simplify and speed up our load testing process." "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." "They have good support documentation and when we have contacted them, they helped to guide us." | "The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it." "The usability and ability to integrate with other solutions is quite good. When I use it in on Azure, then Red Hat is the most likely solution I use. When I use AWS, then I tend to use Lambda functions. In either case, it works well and you can use it either way." "The most valuable feature is that we do not have to accommodate the load-testing infrastructure in our own data center." "The record and playback feature is the most valuable feature. It's all driven by the script, so it's a script-based tool where the background tracing starts. Java's background process does a lot of tracing. The process starts in the background. It sees what peaks of volumes that the process can handle. It's easy to use because it's script based, record, and playback. I" |
Cons | |
"My only complaint is about the technical support, where sometimes I found that they would not read into and understand the details of my question before answering it." "A possible improvement could be the integration with APM tools." "In terms of improvement, I would like to have the ability to customize reports." "Having more options for customization would be helpful." | "Improvements to the reporting would be good." "I don't know of any features that should be added. The solution isn't lacking anything at this point." "There are three modules in the system that are different products packaged into one, and they can sometimes be difficult to figure out, so they should be better integrated with each other." "I would like for there to be better integration with other tools so that when you do load testing you can also do a security check." |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
"The licensing fees are billed on a monthly basis and they cost approximately $100 for the basic plan." | "There is no monthly or yearly cost but rather, the fees are based on the amount of traffic that you use." |
