Tricentis NeoLoad pros and cons

The licensing cost is very less for NeoLoad. It is user-friendly and easy to understand because they have created so many useful functionalities. When I started working with this tool, we just had to do the initial assessment about whether this tool will be able to support our daily work or not. I could easily understand it. I didn't have to search Google or watch YouTube videos. In just 15 to 20 minutes, I was able to understand the tool.

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 stability is okay.

It offered us an easy to use, limited code option for end-to-end performance testing.

The most useful aspect of Tricentis NeoLoad was for the web.

Very easy to use the front end and the UI is very good.

LoadRunner supports multiple protocols, whereas NeoLoad supports only three protocols. With NeoLoad, we can go for the SAP technology, web-based HTTP, and Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP). If I have to simulate .NET application-based traffic, I won't be able to do that. So, protocol support is a limitation for NeoLoad. It should support more protocols.

The SAP area could be improved.

There were some features that were lacking in Tricentis NeoLoad, e.g. those were more into Citrix and other complicated protocols, which were supported easily by a competitor: Micro Focus LoadRunner. We also need to look into how it integrates with other Tricentis products, because Tricentis did not have a good performance testing tool until now.

LoadRunner offers a full protocol, whereas, with this product, only a few of the protocols are supported - not all.

We would like NeoLoad to be able to support more protocols. Testing can also be a little tricky at times.

Tricentis NeoLoad could improve the terminal emulation mainframe. It is not able to use the low code or no code option. You have to code it yourself.

Support wasn't able to solve a technical issue.
