User-friendly, cheap, and quick to set up
It's actually quite easy to set it up. You can change your upgrade plan at any time. The pricing is reasonable. The support was also very good. They are great at helping you set it up. Overall, it's user-friendly. I like that you can also use different servers, which I used in Europe or in different contexts. The reporting is okay. I can get notifications via email, which is nice. Everything is immediate and in real-time.

Performance testing has supported web app peak analysis but needs better setup and smarter scripting
Regarding points for improvement for OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering (LoadRunner Enterprise), I see that features are not being fully developed yet. If OpenText could think about bringing AI features into the tool, it could save maximum time in scripting or make scripting effortless, particularly in correlation, which is where the complexity involved in script development exists. If any AI features could replace or eliminate more manual work on the correlation part, that is where we could see a game-changing improvement for the tool. OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering (LoadRunner Enterprise) can be positioned very well in the market. However, I see that the basic correlations are only being handled by the autocorrelation engine in the LoadRunner tool, and I would expect a few improvements to handle even complex correlation problems so that the tool can be appropriately positioned compared to their peers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The initial setup is easy, and if you need more help, they are there to assist."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"LoadView is a perfect cloud-based load testing tool."
"LoadView is a flexible solution, which protects your investments."
"With LoadRunner, 80% of the cases will be supported."
"Overall, I am satisfied with this product."
"With the latest updates, it is very comprehensive and one of the best products of the sort."
"It is a very powerful tool."
"This helps us to uncover some very high and critical performance-related defects, and keeping almost zero production issues related to the performance of applications since then."
"We can book load generators."
"The tool is very easy to set up and get running."
"I think the number one feature everybody likes is the capability to easily generate virtual users as well as the reporting."
 

Cons

"A lot of time you start the stress testing, and you sign the log in again, and I want to get rid of that. It's just not clear to me how to do it yet."
"If I do the web application test, I want to bypass a login part."
"The trending reports do not always work as I would expect them to. Additionally, trending a test run can take over 30 minutes when it should take five."
"They need to focus on minimizing the cost."
"Dashboard creation should be implemented, so we can get the results in a desired format."
"The initial setup was complex, but we were helped every step of the way by our NRCE (Named Response Center Engineer)."
"Running virtual users especially with a huge number is a very challenging task. The load generators may over utilize its resources (CPU/ memory) due to improper default configurations, or improper use of LoadRunner and Performance Center."
"I'd like to be able to carry out transaction comparisons with previous tests."
"I know there are integrations with continuous testing. It's got tie-ins to some of the newer tools to allow continuous testing. I'd love to see us not have to customize it, but for it to be out of the box."
"I think better support for cloud-based load generators would help. For example, integrate with Amazon AWS so you can quickly spin up a load generator in the cloud, use it, spin it down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You can buy plans that range from free to $500 a month."
"The prices would differ depending on the number of licenses you need. I wouldn't maybe compare it to any other tools. I rate the price as seven out of ten."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten."
"We got an 80 percent discount for the product. It was cost-effective, but licenses tend to get expensive."
"I have not been directly involved in price negotiations but my understanding is that while the cost is a little bit high, it provides good value for the money."
"ROI is 200%."
"LoadRunner Enterprise's price is high."
"For Performance Center, you have to add additional load generators, and then you can do more. I think it is a matter of the price, in terms of how many machines you can buy."
"The tool is very expensive."
