OpenText LoadRunner Enterprise Reviews

It gives us a run history of the tests we've planned and executed.

We are able to connect and run tests from different locations with this tool.

Storing the results of our tests requires the use of a lot of memory in our data center.

I've used it for three years.

No issues encountered.

I have mixed feelings about HP technical support. A few technicians know what they are doing, but the majority don’t.

No previous solution was used.

We implemented it with our in-house, but we used the help desk during the entire process of implementation. Their help desk needs to know more about their own tools.

No other options were looked at.

I like the tool.

The most valuable feature is the analysis tool. It enables me to make a good, detailed analysis after a test run.

On a day-to-day basis, we're working very tight with developers. We use this tool to:

• Outline the details in our systems on the test
• Give feedback to our developers and they do changes
• Test again

It's really good

It would be nice if the Citrix protocol could be updated.

Stability is pretty good. We only had a few glitches over the past few years.

It seems to be scalable. In our part of Jefferson Boeing, we are about 5000 people.

I haven’t needed to use technical support.

I was not involved in the initial setup and I have no idea how it went. We're not allowed to fiddle around with installations.

• Integrated Infrastructure
• Cloud load generators
• Analysis

• Enterprise-level load tests
• Great analysis module for results

• Backend integration
• Performance
• UI improvement
• Integration with third-party tools

I've used it for the last seven to eight years.

Stability has some room for improvement.

It needs improvement.

We previously used a different enterprise level product.

Complex in installation with many server/mc configurations.

We did it in-house with help from tech support.

The price is quite high. It also has expensive licenses, and product support.

Even if the protocol and API doesn't cover your need, you can always find a solution. That means you can always handle any situation with a piece of code, whatever the target application is.

For me, it's the best product for a performance team covering a large range of technologies and constraints.

The controller and analysis engine are a piece of cake, configuring the scenario and gathering results are the most important to me.

From my 15 years experience, I measure that I spend only 5% of my time to script, other tasks are more consuming: understanding the business process, making the dataset relevant and reliable with workflow (with VTS for instance which is very great), finding how and what to measure and so on.

Some features could sometimes disappear without reason. It's extremely recommended to take time to evaluates newer versions before upgrading.

The main features are the ability to customize the product configuration and the customization to adapt with the customer environment. Additionally, the product flexibility, and stability are also valuable.

We are able to manage and monitor our entire environment. We're also able to perform capacity management, performance management, and configuration management.

I've used it for around seven years.

There are many issues that require day-to-day maintenance. The issues vary from customer to customer, and I can’t list all the issues as it becomes business as usual.

It's OK.

It's OK.

We chose this solution because it's very flexible, scalable, and allows customization in a wide range of areas.

I've implemented it both ways, and my advice is to get the vendor to help you design a detailed plan and manage that plan.

It isn't a very complex product to use. That's what I liked about it.

My organization was not using any other product so I won't be able to compare it to others, but this product was really helpful in providing us the the detailed analysis of the tests that we conducted.

I think some enhanced support, be it online or documentation, would be appreciated.

I used it for about a year, and v12 for a few days.

I didn't face any major issues.

7.5/10.

I didn't have the chance to use any other product.

I believe that the setup was quite easy as I was able to proceed without facing any hurdles. The interface was pretty easy and helpful.

We used a vendor team.

Even though I was a beginner, I was at ease while using this product but I believe the documentation provided alongside it could be improved. It is a great product that provides one with an extensive amount of functionality.

• Analyzer
• Performance Center

It gives you a wide-ranging view on performance bottlenecks, from CPU to memory to network etc. This helps identify possible bottlenecks in the production environment, as well as the expected/unexpected loads.

Mobile testing - integrate it with a mobile UI to automate scripts and run it concurrently.

I've used it for five years alongside HP LoadRunner v9.0 to v11.50, and HP UFT.

No issues encountered, but an upgraded patch is required.

7/10. Since 70% of the market share is HP, it is very common, and tough, to reach them for support. The estimated wait time is always at least 20 minutes.

No previous solution was used.

It’s fairly easy and straightforward. With the current version, 12.0 and above, it looks and feels complicated, and not user friendly to implement.

Through a vendor team.

The price has skyrocketed, and to stay competitive, they need to reduce the licensing costs.

Using the ALM Performance Center resource monitors, you can monitor Windows, UNIX, SiteScope, and SNMP servers on a machine during the test run and determine why a bottleneck occurred on a particular machine. Provides the performance of load test applications and reliably on good reporting.

It is used to empower our organisation in assisting customers, addressing their concerns, finding solutions, and providing value, thus making it possible to put customer success first, and in the process, focus on the business.

• Merging Graphs
• Layout management
• Measurement menu
• The new features are nice, like cloud testing, mobile testing, continuous testing, etc.

• New features have been added in latest version and need to be improved with the DevOps integration.
• We are expecting more flexible to use Jenkins in continuous integration going forward. 

No issues.

No scalability issues.

Support is nice, quick, and responsive.

For a long time, we have been using HPE tools only.

It is straightforward.

We implemented through the vendor, who used highly-skilled professionals. 

ROI is 200%.

It is a bit expensive when compared with other tools.
