We performed a comparison between OpenText LoadRunner Enterprise and Worksoft Certify based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Apache, OpenText, Tricentis and others in Performance Testing Tools."The host performance testing of any application using a host/controller is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable part of the product is the way you can scale the basic testing easily."
"The fact that you can have tens of thousands of virtual users and just expand an army of load generators to hammer on whatever application you're testing."
"The tool is very easy to set up and get running."
"Probably its prime advantage, it provides a centralized location for testing."
"The product is very user-friendly."
"The most beneficial features of the solution are flexibility and versatility in their performance."
"With Performance Center, the version upgrade is easy. You just have to roll out the new patch or the new version."
"The biggest feature is the fact that it's codeless. It takes away the problem of finding people with the correct programming language, since there are multiple such languages. It saves time in introducing people to the solution because they don't need programming knowledge, they just need to be able to think logically. This makes it vastly usable by more people who are not even acquainted with IT at all."
"One big advantage of Worksoft Certify is its integration with SAP Solution Manager..."
"Certify integrates with other tools and it works very well with other machine testing applications."
"We are able to automate, not just SAP, but the entire application ecosystem. If you take any company, SAP is the backbone, and if they use SAP ERP, then, there are multiple software applications, where some of them are SAP and some of them are non-SAP applications. Worksoft is one of the tools which can transcend across SAP and non-SAP applications. Non-SAP application include Java or .NET. Worksoft can seamlessly automate these applications."
"If we write a new test that's 80 percent the same as an existing test, it is pretty straightforward to reuse the steps from existing tests for our new tests and build upon them."
"We love the Capture 2.0 feature. It seems to work very well."
"It is a huge improvement, as it recognizes complex general applications, where most tools won't recognize the objects within them."
"Mostly in the area of project testing, the most immediate benefit is when you historically have manual testers do a certain job, and a full regression testing was previously done 100 percent manually. We have had cases where the release testing for an entire region would take around 12 weeks. With Worksoft, we are now down to two to three weeks. So, that is one use case where we have had success."
"While the stability is generally good, there are a few strange issues that crop up unexpectedly which affect consistent use of the product."
"OpenText needs to improve in terms of support. With the same support plan but when the product was owned by HP, support was more responsive and better coordinated."
"The reporting has room for improvement."
"The product's scalability must be improved."
"The solution is a very expensive tool when compared with other tools."
"I believe the data that demonstrates the automated correlations should be corrected."
"The debugging feature needs to include graphs."
"We are expecting more flexible to use Jenkins in continuous integration going forward."
"What could be improved in Worksoft Certify is its integration with other tools, for example, test management tools such as Jira, ALM, or any other test management tools. That integration is missing."
"Pricing is a bit high and we would like to have the availability of a trail environment for beginners and training would be great to have and easier to expand and use by more and more consultants."
"We can use it for the web application, but we are facing stability-related challenges. The properties are getting changed. For example, when I am performing any operation on the text box but the development team has done some changes, our Worksoft scripts are getting changed. This is the main challenge that we are facing while developing tests for the web application in Worksoft Certify, where any changes in the backend are indirectly impacting our scripts. For the web application, there is a scarcity of resources. Unlike an SAP application that doesn't require much experience, for the web application, you require experienced people."
"There have been some previous security concerns with the way that Capture has worked. When you turn it on, you don't know what it's capturing. This has raised some concerns in the past, especially in our European regions."
"When it comes to mobile testing, we have a small bottleneck there. You have to buy third-party separate licenses if you want to test on a mobile. Business wise we see room for improvement there, although it's that really critical for us."
"The web application should be more robust."
"Capture 2.0 is not as useful when you get into more mature automation."
"Reportings are not user-friendly."
