"It was easy to set up."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution...The initial setup or installation of HCL AppScan is easy."
"The most valuable feature of HCL AppScan is its integration with the SDLC, particularly during the coding phase."
"The security and the dashboard are the most valuable features."
"We use it as a security testing application."
"Usually when we deploy the application, there is a process for ethical hacking. The main benefit is that, the ethical hacking is almost clean, every time. So it's less cost, less effort, less time to production."
"The most valuable feature of HCL AppScan is scanning QR codes."
"The most valuable feature is that you can create an infrastructure on-demand and do performance testing with it."
"This solution is SaaS based so we can utilize cloud technology, which is less time consuming and saves a lot of of money."
"The most valuable feature is having load generators in countries where we don’t have access to them."
"The product’s most valuable feature is the Vuser license; it allows us to reduce the cost as per requirement."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to configure browser settings for different operating systems and on different versions without the need to install every single version on each machine and to manage them."
"The record and playback feature is the most valuable feature. It's all driven by the script, so it's a script-based tool where the background tracing starts. Java's background process does a lot of tracing. The process starts in the background. It sees what peaks of volumes that the process can handle. It's easy to use because it's script based, record, and playback. I"
"The solution is easy to use."
"Keeping up with DevOps, thus the best feature of StormRunner is that we don't have to build and maintain infrastructure anymore."
"If HCL AppScan is able to alert the clients over email once the scan is complete, it would be great. Right now, HCL AppScan doesn't let me know if the scanning part is finished or not, because of which I have to come back and check mostly."
"One thing which I think can be improved is the CI/CD Integration"
"A desktop version should be added."
"The solution needs to improve in some areas. The tool needs to add more languages. It also needs to improve its speed."
"It has crashed at times."
"There are so many lines of code with so many different categories that I am likely to get lost. "
"The pricing has room for improvement."
"The solution's scalability can be a matter of concern because one license runs on one machine only."
"It should have a feature to report with a 99.9 percentile success rate."
"There are three modules in the system that are different products packaged into one, and they can sometimes be difficult to figure out, so they should be better integrated with each other."
"Scriptless automation is an area that can be improved."
"One area of improvement in the software's support is the replaying of captured data within the development environment. It would be beneficial if the replay feature could accurately mimic what the actual application is doing for better analysis and testing."
"It doesn't provide custom reports. You can only use the default reports which contain irrelevant data or is missing data that we need."
"Reporting and analysis need improvement. Compared to the old school LoadRunner Windows application, the reporting and analysis are mediocre in LoadRunner Cloud."
"The product price could be more affordable."
"Sometimes, you are utilizing one of the low generators, then all of a sudden if you discontinue from one project, it actually deletes the entire low generator."
