OpenText LoadRunner Cloud Reviews

This solution is SaaS based so we can utilize cloud technology, which is less time consuming and saves a lot of of money.

Sometimes, you are utilizing one of the low generators, then all of a sudden if you discontinue from one project, it actually deletes the entire low generator. You have to go through all the setup again. This kind of problem is on and off. It comes and goes.

We have just been using it for about two months now.

This is a new product, so there are a couple of flaws, sometimes things act up weirdly. We reach out to the support group, they solve the issues. It's an ongoing process. We understand that.

Since this is a new solution, they need to improve the support. They also have some lack of expertise. We understand that.

It is complex. You need to convince the leadership and the IT security team. You need to solve all these issues. There are a lot of things that you have to go through.

We chose this one because of the name. It's established, the last decade. We used to be with this company. Micro Focus is more than seven or eight years, we're good with them, they are good with us.

It's a new product and we are facing some issues. We believe, they are going to work out at their end. They are going make it work and fix everything, whatever the flaws are now.

Overall, we are using this to save money and utilize the cloud technology.

I have been using LoadRunner Cloud for performance testing.

LoadRunner Cloud allows us to do performance testing without having to create our own physical infrastructure and set up a load generator. Normally, these steps would be required.

The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it. There is no need to create physical infrastructure.

Using this solution does not require the use of a load generator.

Improvements to the reporting would be good.

Technical support can be improved.

I have used LoadRunner Cloud in only one project so far, for a period of about three months.

I have found this to be a very stable product.

I only needed to simulate 40,000 users for my project but I understand that it will work for up to 2,000,000 users. That is huge and I can say that scalability is very good.

This vendor, Micro Focus, is not very good at technical support.

I have used some open-source tools and LoadRunner Cloud is more straightforward to use.

The initial setup is normal and I have not found any complexity with it.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

It's very valuable because with StormRunner we can validate the capacity of our systems. Specifically, we use it for one system that is from two years ago. We have an increment of the users, about 300% more, so we need to assure that the quality of the service keeps up with the users. StormRunner helps us to validate that.

Right now, we are just starting to use it. I don't have any comments on that.

Less than a year.

Yes, it's stable. We don't have any issue right now with the performance or anything like that.

It's very flexible. We can have load testing for 100 users, maybe 1,000 or even more, so yes, no problem with that.

It's very good. We also have support from our partner, Micro Focus, so it's basically good on that.

No, it was straightforward. It was very easy to implement and to have a load test.

Flexibility and speed to provision and start large (high concurrency) performance testing cycles.

This software solution has allowed us to run larger, high concurrency performance testing cycles in a very repetitive manner…a requirement for validating our application solutions and supporting infrastructure for customer facing web apps.

Out of the box reporting could be improved.

We have been using the solution for 9 months.

Some issues with UI but HP did provide high levels of support and the issue(s) were quickly fixed (within 3 days of initial product usage).

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

Customer service was an 8/10.

Technical support 9/10.

Utilized a different HP toolset (ALM/PC) for performance testing. SRL provided a better solution from a pricing and scaling perspective.

Initial setup was straightforward…cloud based solution with a simple, flexible UI.

Vendor team…expertise (10).

Looked briefly at Neotys…actively doing a POC of CloudTest for comparison purposes.

You need to effectively plan anticipated usage of the toolset. This will enable you to purchase the appropriate amount of Vusers hours for your contractual period (in our case this was 12 months).

Its ability to work well with other HP products, particularly SiteScope, allows us to maintain consistency in our infrastructure. The different solutions work seamlessly together and free up resources that would otherwise be spent on conflicting vendors and products.

It's fast, easy to use, has a user-friendly UI, and you can split users. It also works well with SiteScope and other HP products.

It doesn't provide custom reports. You can only use the default reports which contain irrelevant data or is missing data that we need.

Also, a lot of our customers have issues logging into the cloud.

It's been stable.

It scales fine because our customers are usually larger.

Technical support is something we're not so happy with.

The initial setup is straightforward.

I can use it just as much as I need. It is quick and intuitive.

We are able to ensure very quickly and frequently that our product is ready for prime time. Using StormRunner, Codefresh has managed to identify performance issues and when these issues are introduced.

When you start a test, it takes times to initiate.

We have been using the solution for 7 months.

No issues with deployment.

No issues with stability.

We never encountered issues with scalability.

Excellent customer service.

Excellent technical support.

Very intuitive.

In-house technical people.

StormRunner does the job in a very simple and cost effective way. HP has always lead this market.

We primarily use this solution to deploy our apps to the server, for public use.

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 features on offer do everything we need them to.

I don't know of any features that should be added. The solution isn't lacking anything at this point. We're happy with what is on offer.

I have had seven years of experience using this solution. It's been quite a while at this point.

We're a customer. We don't have any business partnerships with the company.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten overall. The solution has been quite good and integrates well with other products. It has all of the features we need and isn't really lacking anything that we've noticed.
