We performed a comparison between Broadcom Service Virtualization and Orchestrated Service Virtualization based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Broadcom, OpenText, SmartBear and others in Service Virtualization."In the case of the virtualization of TCP/IP protocols for third-party terminal insurance, there was a device terminal, which was interacting with the application via the TCP/IP protocol. Most of the tools don't support that, but we were able to achieve it using Broadcom Service Virtualization."
"It's got probably the greatest amount of features, in terms of different technologies that you can automate and virtualize, out of any of the solutions out there."
"It is easy to use, has a faster time to market, and provides flexibility."
"Unit testing or early life testing did not have to be stopped or delayed because those services were not available."
"Scalability has actually worked well and we are able to bring it to multiple environments."
"The most valuable features include the capability to use other program languages such as PLSQR, JAVA, .NET."
"We have been using it extensively for the shift left process and testing. It helps us to accelerate and virtualize services and assets that we don't have. It enables to test faster."
"It is definitely scalable."
"You can push transactions through to live, and you can intercept some transactions and return them back with mocked data."
"They can always work on usability and making simple things simple to do. This is true of every product that deals with complexity."
"The cost is an area that needs improvement. There are a couple of other tools which provide support for performance testing with the base version itself, but Broadcom needs a separate component to support virtualization for performance testing. This is a costly component."
"More examples of portal-based virtualization."
"It is not a stable solution."
"One major feature I would like to see is on the user administration part. Right now, anybody can access any of the folders and any of the projects."
"I really want to see more of the "express" kind of model, where you get a little bit for free. I'd love to be able to see you be able to edit and author tests without having to be connected to a licensed server. And then, if you want to go and execute tests, then you go and connect to the server... I think it would unblock people to be able to do a lot more work from home or from remote places, where they can't really connect to the server."
"Needs some additional lightweight, portable elements."
"CA actually releases a new version every year. We had issues with the upgrade prior to the latest one."
"The initial setup was complex."
