Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, OpenText, Tricentis and others in Performance Testing Tools."The scripting is really user-friendly and the reporting is very good."
"I like the scripting and parameterization features."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to execute parallel requests, unlike JMeter and LoadRunner which can only be run sequentially."
"The test cases are quite easy to build and to maintain. This is the most valuable aspect of the solution for us. It's the reason why they changed from JMeter to NeoLoad."
"There aren't other solutions as competitive as Tricentis NeoLoad when it comes to the performance side."
"We appreciate that this solution is very user-friendly, even if the user does not have a lot of protocol knowledge and experience."
"The Frameworks feature is valuable. NeoLoad Web and the API are also valuable. It provides API support."
"NeoLoad is actually really good, mainly because they have a world-class support service."
"The solution is very useful for compiling existing projects and developing new projects."
"One of the best documentation in the world."
"The most valuable feature is the in-built support for C# and .NET projects."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a scalable solution."
"Easy to use and easily scalable."
"Customization is the most powerful feature of this product."
"Its initial setup process is easy."
"Code testing is the most valuable feature of this solution for developing software."
"LoadRunner supports multiple protocols, whereas NeoLoad supports only three protocols. With NeoLoad, we can go for the SAP technology, web-based HTTP, and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). If I have to simulate .NET application-based traffic, I won't be able to do that. So, protocol support is a limitation for NeoLoad. It should support more protocols."
"Support wasn't able to solve a technical issue."
"The UI lacks sufficient object rendering."
"There were some features that were lacking in Tricentis NeoLoad, e.g. those were more into Citrix and other complicated protocols, which were supported easily by a competitor: Micro Focus LoadRunner. We also need to look into how it integrates with other Tricentis products, because Tricentis did not have a good performance testing tool until now."
"There is room for improvement with the support and community documentation as it can be difficult to find answers to questions quickly."
"We would like NeoLoad to be able to support more protocols. Testing can also be a little tricky at times."
"I would like to see support for auto-correlations."
"It needs improvements in the UI. It's currently not as friendly as it should be."
"It needs more integration with other tools for monitoring. Microsoft also needs to make it more modern to make it work with microservices and the cloud. It is a bit outdated currently."
"The price could be improved."
"The price is reasonable, but it's not the best."
"There are too many features with the product and I would like there to be less."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"The documents on the Microsoft website are not very useful, and they ought to make it easier to find answers."
"The interface should be made attractive."
"Over the years, I haven't identified any specific enhancements that I desire; Visual Studio has consistently met my requirements seamlessly and flawlessly."
