Featured Reviews

Nirav Patel - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior QA Engineer at a tech vendor with 1,001-5,000 employees
Performance testing for peak retail events has become faster and delivers reliable user load insights
BlazeMeter offers numerous features, but the ones that stand out to me include its ease of use, predefined configurations for high-scale performance testing that can be executed quickly, AI-powered testing, scriptless testing, and accurate API testing with an auto-correction plugin to ensure the accuracy of the tests performed. While I cannot pinpoint a single favorite feature, I find myself using parallel execution frequently because this feature allows multiple tests to be run at once, greatly enhancing my workflow. BlazeMeter effectively handles dependency in microservice architecture, for example, linking one API to another to manage response flows, such as the login and registration APIs, which flows efficiently through BlazeMeter. BlazeMeter has positively impacted my organization by reducing the time required for testing due to its robust features that yield efficient results. Unlike JMeter, which has limitations on user simulations, BlazeMeter allows me to test any number of users, helping my e-commerce website manage unpredictable traffic loads effectively while delivering accurate results I can trust to improve my systems.

Robust API load testing has improved peak traffic handling but still needs a more intuitive UI
The ability to add scenarios, the ability to configure concurrent users per second, and the ability to define how long a particular test should last are valuable features. After that, I can draw conclusive reports and graphs around how well the particular test took, how many API calls were successful versus how many errored out, how many were failing due to authentication errors, and what sort of granular errors I got. That really helps us understand the scale at which our system is performing. I rely on the fact that we are able to add a particular number of users per second as simulations in the code or in Gatling Enterprise. The reason it is very important for my team is because it mimics the way actual users use our product in their day-to-day lives where there are periods wherein our system and product receive way more traffic, and that traffic results in way more downstream traffic, which Gatling Enterprise perfectly helps me capture. It has led us to have really robust scalability testing, performance testing, and load testing, thereby making sure of our system integrity during crunch time or during times of peak traffic. It has helped build confidence in our systems. We saw fewer outages and fewer periods of slowness in the product. Our number of customer complaints or customer escalations reduced by almost 20 to 30 percent over the period of a year when we initially started using Gatling Enterprise. As more and more teams are adopting this, the number is growing. It has led to real positive impact here.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BlazeMeter has allowed us to simplify and speed up our load testing process."
"The solution’s most valuable feature is the dashboard."
"It's a great platform because it's a SaaS solution, but it also builds the on-premises hosting solutions, so we have implemented a hybrid approach. BlazeMeter sets us up for our traditional hosting platforms and application stack as well as the modern cloud-based or SaaS-based application technologies."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"With the help of the Mock Services, we are overcoming everything. Wherever we are facing issues, whether they will be long term or temporary, by implementing the Mock Services we can bypass the faulty components that are not needed for our particular testing."
"The testing it offers is very useful and compatible with many platforms."
"BlazeMeter has provided me with a vast cloud platform to run JMeter script files, eliminating the need for storage or load providers."
"It is focused on concurrency testing, which has been especially beneficial for us. Their previous experiences had caused major setbacks."
"We saw fewer outages and fewer periods of slowness in the product, and our number of customer complaints or customer escalations reduced by almost 20 to 30 percent over the period of a year when we initially started using Gatling Enterprise."
"Gatling Enterprise has positively impacted our organization by streamlining the workflow, easing the task, and reducing manual labor."
 

Cons

"There are only certain features that actually work."
"A possible improvement could be the integration with APM tools."
"The pricing is high"
"Lacks an option to include additional users during a test run."
"Integration with APM tools like Dynatrace or AppDynamics needs to be improved."
"Integration is one of the things lacking in BlazeMeter compared to some newer options."
"We had some stability issues; sometimes the load generators do not start at all."
"The product could improve in areas such as mobile testing and the integration of AI analytics."
"The setup is a little difficult."
"The UI can be made a little better to understand."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an averagely priced product."
"The product pricing is reasonable."
"The licensing fees are billed on a monthly basis and they cost approximately $100 for the basic plan."
"The solution is free and open source."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution."
"The pricing is manageable. It is not that big. Big companies won't mind the licensing costs."
"It's consumption-based pricing but with a ceiling. They're called CVUs, or consumption variable units. We can use API testing, GUI testing, and test data, but everything gets converted into CVUs, so we are free to use the platform in its entirety without getting bogged down by a license for certain testing areas. We know for sure how much we are going to spend."
"The product isn't cheap, but it isn't the most expensive on the market. During our proof of concept, we discovered that you get what you pay for; we found a cheaper solution we tested to be full of bugs. Therefore, we are willing to pay the higher price tag for the quality BlazeMeter offers."
