Find out in this report how the two Load Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI.
The support for Apache JMeter is excellent.
With BlazeMeter, you can view the results in real-time.
Currently, we need to use multiple separate JMeter instances to simulate reductions in load, which isn't ideal.
JMeter is highly scalable, easily handling increased loads through the use of multiple servers.
Using JMeter helps us avoid additional costs for high-load testing since it is open-source and allows for unlimited virtual users at no extra cost.
Monetary benefits with Apache JMeter are notable as it doesn't require a licensed version, whereas BlazeMeter involves costs.
JMeter performs exceptionally well, especially in non-GUI mode, which supports high loads efficiently.
It's useful for both the person conducting the test and the higher management, like project managers or senior executives, who may not know about the test.
JMeter's open-source nature allows us to create scripts easily, add any number of users during load tests, and handle large volumes of data without additional cost.
Apache JMeter is an open-source Java application that tests load and functional behavior and performance in applications. Created initially to test web applications, it has expanded its functionality to test other functions. For instance, you can test a server to see how efficiently it works and how many user requests can be handled simultaneously.
You can use JMeter to test functional performance and regression tests on different technologies. This Java desktop application has an easy-to-use graphical interface which uses the Swing graphical API. You can run JMeter on any environment that accepts a Java virtual machine, such as Windows, Linux, and Mac.
What protocols does JMeter support?
How does JMeter work?
JMeter sends requests to a target server by simulating a group of user requests. Then it collects and calculates statistics on the performance of the target. This target can be a server or an application.
You can test the performance of static resources, such as JavaScript or HTML, and dynamic resources, such as JSP, Servlets, and AJAX. It is also helpful to determine how many concurrent users your website can handle.
There are two main tests you can carry out with JMeter: load test and stress test. The load test models expected usage of a server by simulating multiple users accessing the web server simultaneously. The stress testing aims to find the maximum load capacity of the server or application.

Reviews from Real Users
Stephen B., I.T. Architect, Analyst, and Developer at an educational organization, says, "The scripting ability is most valuable. It is easy to use. There is a UI, and you can go in there and figure those things out. After you've got a good set of tests, you basically have a scripted document that you can grab and execute in a pipeline. It is pretty quick to set up, and you can scale it and version control it."
"I like the fact that JMeter integrates well with other tools," adds the Founder and Principal Consultant at a tech services company.
A Quality Engineering Delivery Leader at a financial services firm says, “The performance of the solution is excellent. They have designed the product so that it is very easy to configure. You can basically do anything you like with the product. It's not very restrictive. We like the fact that the technology is open-source.”
ReadyAPI Performance is an open-source load and quality assurance testing solution whose design allows organizations of all sizes to completely control their load testing process. It gives administrators the ability to customize their testing parameters and tests to best meet their needs. They can also quickly run the tests that they need to run in order to guarantee the peak performance of their application and various network components.

Reviews from Real Users
ReadyAPI Performance is a solution that stands out when compared to many of its competitors. It can offer organizations many advantages. Two major advantages are the wealth of features that it makes available to users and the ease with which organizations can deploy it for use.
Kumar G., a software engineer at Birlasoft India Ltd., writes, “It provides many features. It facilitates load testing, operational volume testing, spike testing for the APIs, and the API is very fast It stores good reports, as in, improved reports if compared with SoapUI. It also has in-built security. You just need to switch and check the security testing.”
He also writes, “The initial setup is not very complex. For testers, they have to create their test cases and scenarios within ReadyAPI, and there they simply go for the load testing.”
We monitor all Load Testing Tools reviews to prevent fraudulent reviews and keep review quality high. We do not post reviews by company employees or direct competitors. We validate each review for authenticity via cross-reference with LinkedIn, and personal follow-up with the reviewer when necessary.
