Neotys NeoLoad Competitors and Alternatives

What is most valuable?

The reporting mechanism is a valuable feature that generates good reports. The auto-correlation is much better than the different protocols that it supports. LoadRunner is easy to use.

What needs improvement?

The debugging capability is difficult to use and should be improved. This is one area where some of the other products we use are better.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We have used multiple testing tools like Visual Studio and NeoLoad. We have all of these as options. LoadRunner is easier to use and has support for better protocols.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

NeoLoad was one of the options that we considered, but we ultimately went with LoadRunner.

What is most valuable?

The ease of use is the solution's most valuable feature. Also, the ability to easily create test cases is also very good. It's easy to just ramp up on the solution.

What needs improvement?

The solution is new to us. I'm not sure if we're using the full capabilities of the solution yet, but from what we have used, we're quite satisfied. In future releases, it would be helpful if there was an integration with ALM Octane.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used LoadRunner. We decided to switch because on LoadRunner scaling up was a problem. We needed licenses to do so and it was becoming a problem for us to simulate the number of users we were expecting.

What other advice do I have?

We are using the on-premises deployment model. The advice I would give to others would be to look at your requirements and decide if the solution is right for you. For us, it was API testing and JMeter is very good for this. I'd rate this… more»

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Before we chose JMeter, we looked at NeoLoad, but it looked to have the same issues surrounding licensing that LoadRunner did.
