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

"LoadView is a flexible solution, which protects your investments."
"LoadView is a perfect cloud-based load testing tool."
"The initial setup is easy, and if you need more help, they are there to assist."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We are delivering fine performance results and performance recommendations using Performance Center."
"It is also good for reporting purposes, which would be most familiar for QC and UFT users."
"We implemented through the vendor, who used highly-skilled professionals."
"HP has very masterfully re-engineered this tool and integrated it with Application Lifecycle Management to create one of the most seamless project management suites I've used in years."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis tool; it enables me to make a good, detailed analysis after a test run."
"Provides the performance of load test applications and reliably on good reporting."
"Performance Application Lifecycle allowed us to really build our load test according to the traffic we see in production."
"The product is very user-friendly."
 

Cons

"If I do the web application test, I want to bypass a login part."
"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."
"The migration from LoadRunner to Performance Center was not as smooth as I would have liked."
"I think some enhanced support, be it online or documentation, would be appreciated."
"OpenText LoadRunner Enterprise doesn't support some mainframe protocols. We had to build scripts to access the interface."
"Communication between load testing hosts and components is very complex and sometimes fragile, making manual intervention still too often necessary should an anomaly occur during testing."
"The initial installation of OpenText Enterprise Performance Engineering (LoadRunner Enterprise) was difficult. I faced many difficulties in understanding which versions to use or which buttons I needed to configure for my injectors in the servers."
"Many of my customers have had to switch to different tools due to the cost of LoadRunner, despite its advantages, leading them to alternatives like JMeter and RPT."
"Integration can be tricky during the setup process."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"You can buy plans that range from free to $500 a month."
"The price of Micro Focus LoadRunner Enterprise could improve, it is expensive."
"They have a much more practical pricing model now."
"It does everything you could hope for in a performance testing solution. It's not cheap."
"It is a bit expensive, especially for smaller organizations, but over-all it can save you money."
"I give the cost a one out of ten."
"The price is okay. You're able to buy it, as opposed to paying for a full year."
"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."
"It is a bit expensive when compared with other tools."
