    Overview
    We believe that testing your applications should be as easy as using them. Forget everything you know about testing, and imagine the cleanest way to test any application. That's what we did when we created AppLoader. Now, you don't need to plug in at the protocol level, or write a single line of code. Now you can test ANY of your applications with a simple solution that uses smart technology to get accurate results. Our approach is simple: Test what the user sees. Knows what works, and more importantly what doesn't work. One install will test all application layers: Citrix, third party applications, Virtual Desktop, mobile apps. Also integrates well with the leading testing and monitoring tools. Although we do not heavily market, we are well known through referrals. AppLoader will work when other products don't. Even HP consulting uses AppLoader for difficult apps. Try on your most challenging application. Free POC available here: https://www.nrgglobal.com/load-testing-tool-apploader-poc

    Katalon Studio is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. Some of its major advantages are that it has a valuable record and playback feature, is user friendly, and has fantastic integration capabilities.

    Khurram K., Head of SQA, Project Manager at Vroozi, says, "The best thing about the solution is that there is a record and playback functionality. The solution allows for specific object files [and it] has great multi-parallel languages that work in the facilities here.”

    Another PeerSpot user expresses the multiple benefits the solution provides for him exclaiming, “I'd describe it as extremely user-friendly. There's a lot of information that is readily available on the internet, and therefore it's easy to learn about the product itself. The scalability of the product is good. The solution was quite stable throughout the time I used it. We found the installation process to be quite simple. There is also very helpful online documentation that can help you if you ever get stuck during the implementation process itself,” comments a Senior Quality Assurance Analyst at an educational organization.
