"Lacks an option to include additional users during a test run."
"BlazeMeter has room for improvement in terms of its integration with GitLab, particularly in the context of CI/CD processes.

"The seamless integration with mobiles could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, I would like to have the ability to customize reports."
"We encountered some minor bugs, and I would like to have the ability to add load generators to workspaces without having to use APIs. We can't do that now, so we're beholden to the APIs."

"A possible improvement could be the integration with APM tools."
"The only downside of BlazeMeter is that it is a bit expensive."

"The product's scalability must be improved."
"The solution can be improved by making it more user-friendly, and by including autocorrelation capability."
"After they get over the acquisition, the first improvement is going to be tailoring it for their existing stack of other products. How would LoadRunner work for Documentum? How would it work for Business Network? How would it work for other apps? They can have a pre-package or a guide because they are all in the same family as opposed to being outside."
"The solution is expensive."
