Need improvements ,but has cloud and on-premises options
The solution is not in an optimal state. During POC, we analyzed tool is kept on upgrading. The patch deployment is happening in parallel, things that are working today are not working tomorrow. We eventually sorted it out with help of CSM. We integrated this tool with other software such as Azure client, but many times without a valid or visible reason, the connectivity was breaking. Improvement suggestions- The dashboard creation for the reporting needs to be easier. Currently, the solution does not support multiple script executions and we would like to see support for this.

Positive experience with seamless setup and responsive support but pricing and version compatibility need improvement
I'm not ready to share what areas of Tricentis NeoLoad have room for improvement now. The price could be more friendly, and it was impossible to continue using the same version of Tricentis NeoLoad, as we were forced to move to the next version. Sometimes there were compatibility problems, and that was a major problem with backward compatibility issues.

"Their technical support is awesome."
"It helped us to improve the performance of all our applications."
"I have worked on various different performance testing tools, and I found NeoLoad very much within budget without compromising the quality of the product."
"The licensing cost is very less for NeoLoad. It is user-friendly and easy to understand because they have created so many useful functionalities. When I started working with this tool, we just had to do the initial assessment about whether this tool will be able to support our daily work or not. I could easily understand it. I didn't have to search Google or watch YouTube videos. In just 15 to 20 minutes, I was able to understand the tool."
"It’s a very powerful tool which meets all our load and performance testing requirements, along with very sophisticated monitoring tools and reports."
"The solution's setup was straightforward."
"Tool for load testing and performance testing with good API support and good technical support. Tricentis NeoLoad is absolutely stable and scalable."
"The GUI based scripting is a huge time saver for us since we don’t have a dedicated performance team yet, as I can create scripts quickly and get tests going."
"The most effective aspect is especially when I'm renaming all the scripting factors, basically the containers that I use."
 

Cons

"The solution is quite immature, it is not in an optimal state."
"We used an implementation strategy to deploy the solution, not because of the tools, but mainly because of the scripting part of the tool."
"The solution is not in an optimal state."
"The solution lacks a little bit in the reporting features."
"The performance of the tool needs to improve."
"The performance of the tool needs to improve."
"The documentation for the new JMS protocol is in its initial stages and Neotys needs to update their online support documentation with more information about it."
"Team Server - Neotys Team Server - This currently stores project data on the local drive. I suggest having Neotys Team Server Data stored on an actual server."
"Most people focus on HTTPS or TCP, but it would be good to have support for a variety of different protocols."
"In future releases, it would be good if extra added features for integration are added into NeoLoad."
"Tricentis NeoLoad crashes if an application contains more than 1,000 scripts."
"It needs to support SAP GUI-based applications, which forms 60-70% of our portfolio, as well as Windows (client install) and Citrix-based applications."
"The solution can be improved by introducing a secure testing feature."
"At times we have had issues with load generator agent stability, but tuning the heap and documented network hacks greatly reduced this."
