A testing platform with a good API for apps, but pricing is complicated

I like that the AI Testbot is a near-zero code application for testing. For this use case, the function is good. The services are robust. Game testing and the API for apps are also good. From the perspective of pricing, licensing, ease of use, integration with other applications, impact complexity, and integration with other tools, we're pretty much very satisfied.

Provides global load simulations without managing infrastructure and offers built-in reporting features

BlazeMeter should improve or make available some features out of the box that JMeter requires customization for. The licensing cost is also a concern since BlazeMeter is not free like JMeter, which limits its use. Additionally, if there is no host in preferred locations such as some Asian or Middle Eastern countries, it might not be convenient to use BlazeMeter.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Game testing and the API for apps are good."

"Ability to use different frameworks."

"The feature that stands out the most is their action groups. They act like functions or methods and code, allowing us to reuse portions of our tests. That also means we have a single point for maintenance when updates are required. Instead of updating a hundred different test cases, we update one action group, and the test cases using that action group will update."

"The stability is good."

"BlazeMeter's most valuable feature is its cloud-based platform for performance testing."

"For me, the best part is that we can graphically see the test result at runtime. It helps us understand the behavior of the application during all stages of the test."

"In our company, various teams use BlazeMeter, particularly appreciating its cloud license software, which supports up to 5,000 users. BlazeMeter's cloud capabilities allow us to load test or simulate traffic from any location worldwide, such as Europe, North America, South America, Australia, and even specific cities like Delhi. So, with one cloud license, we can simulate user load from various locations globally."

"One key advantage of using BlazeMeter is that it does not require me to manage my own infrastructure."

"The most valuable aspect of BlazeMeter is its user-friendly nature, ability to conduct distributed load testing and comprehensive analysis and reporting features. It particularly excels in providing a clear and organized view of load test results."

"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that BlazeMeter provides easy access to its users while also ensuring that its reporting functionalities are good."

More BlazeMeter pros

Cons

"Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."

"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved."

"The pricing is high"

"Sometimes, when we execute tests, the results calculated by BlazeMeter, specifically the response times for failed transactions, are incorrect."

"Integration with APM tools like Dynatrace or AppDynamics needs to be improved."

"The should be some visibility into load testing. I'd like to capture items via snapshots."

"BlazeMeter does not provide integration with the Aternity tool."

"The Timeline Report panel has no customization options. One feature that I missed was not having a time filter, which I had in ELK. For example, there are only filter requests for a time of less than 5 seconds."

"For a new user of BlazeMeter, it might be difficult to understand it from a programming perspective."

"My only complaint is about the technical support, where sometimes I found that they would not read into and understand the details of my question before answering it."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."

"The product pricing is reasonable."

"The overall product is less costly than our past solutions, so we've absolutely saved money."

"My company has opted for a pay-as-you-go model, so we don't make use of the free version of the product."

"The pricing is manageable. It is not that big. Big companies won't mind the licensing costs."

"The licensing fees are billed on a monthly basis and they cost approximately $100 for the basic plan."

"When compared with the cost of the licenses of other tools, BlazeMeter's license price is good."

"I would rate the pricing a three out of ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive."

"I rate the product's price two on a scale of one to ten, where one is very cheap, and ten is very expensive. The solution is not expensive."
