Featured Reviews

Test Process Consultant - PeerSpot reviewer
Need improvements ,but has cloud and on-premises options
The solution is not in an optimal state. During POC, we analyzed tool is kept on upgrading. The patch deployment is happening in parallel, things that are working today are not working tomorrow. We eventually sorted it out with help of CSM. We integrated this tool with other software such as Azure client, but many times without a valid or visible reason, the connectivity was breaking. Improvement suggestions- The dashboard creation for the reporting needs to be easier. Currently, the solution does not support multiple script executions and we would like to see support for this.
Vivekanandan Vallinayagam - PeerSpot reviewer
Has a highly intuitive UI and easy integrations and has an impressive reporting framework
The solution offers an easy setup process. Tricentis NeoLoad has intuitive installers to facilitate a seamless deployment process. Our organization works with both the on-prem and SaaS models of Tricentis NeoLoad as per the client's needs. As part of the deployment process in our company, at first, we typically provision some VMs, and then we get the installers and license codes upon purchase. Following the aforementioned step, the .exe controller is installed, and in the help section of the product's portal, the license needs to be applied. The deployment process of the solution takes around one or two days. The product doesn't require many resources for deployment and can be easily maintained. The SaaS version is maintained by the vendor, while the on-prem version allows the user to archive the reports and results.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You can utilize this tool on the cloud, and also access application on-premises. That is a very good part of the solution."
"Their technical support is awesome."
"The most valuable feature is the support for Java, where we can quickly code what we need."
"In my opinion, correlation of dynamic data is the most important advantage of this tool."
"Tricentis NeoLoad is quite easy to use as compared to JMeter."
"The best feature of the solution is that we can utilize the Tosca scripts for NeoLoad execution."
"The solution is a UI-based tool, so it's easy to use because we don't have to do actual recording with it. This makes it easier to use, and, in terms of speed, it's a bit faster than other tools when it comes to scripting."
"I feel that the codeless part, the dynamic value capture part is quite easy in NeoLoad compared to other tools."
"Tool for load testing and performance testing with good API support and good technical support. Tricentis NeoLoad is absolutely stable and scalable."
"The most useful aspect of Tricentis NeoLoad was for the web."
"Learning-wise, it's pretty straightforward and flexible because if the person has little knowledge of performance testing and the process, they can definitely easily grab the knowledge from NeoLoad."
 

Cons

"The solution is quite immature, it is not in an optimal state."
"The performance of the tool needs to improve."
"We used an implementation strategy to deploy the solution, not because of the tools, but mainly because of the scripting part of the tool."
"The overall stability of the GUI should be improved. The GUI component is not stable enough. We have observed crashes several times."
"There is room for improvement with the support and community documentation as it can be difficult to find answers to questions quickly."
"It needs improvement with post-production."
"Regular and strong support has to be made available by Tricentis during the solution's implementation and initial setup."
"Sometimes it's complicated to maintain the test cases. It's much easier than in JMeter, however. I'm not sure if this depends so much on NeoLoad, or is more based on the environment that we are testing."
"Support wasn't able to solve a technical issue."
"It would be good to make some updates on the reporting side."
"The UI lacks sufficient object rendering."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is in the average price range compared to other testing tools."
"The only positive point is it came free with my test automation tool."
"The vendor offers flexible licensing options"
"Its licensing cost is very less."
"We used a 60-day trial with ten hours of work per month."
"NeoLoad is cheaper compared to other solutions. There are no additional licensing fees."
"Tricentis NeoLoad is much cheaper compared to other tools like LoadRunner."
"Pricing for Tricentis NeoLoad could be cheaper because, at the moment, it's expensive. For a year, the solution cost us a lot of money, in particular, more than $50,000."
"Pricing is always cheaper with Tricentis NeoLoad versus the very expensive Micro Focus LoadRunner."
"Licensing for NeoLoad is subscription-based."
