Actually, sometimes we use the tools that are not exactly in the category of virtualization to do testing in a similar way. The tools are some kind of like an API gateway where we can simulate virtualization. And there is another tool called MounteBank, which is freeware. It can allow us to make a mock or stub server for integration testing the same to virtual service. However, we use it only in cases where the TPS or the scale of the capacity is not projected to be very high. When we need enterprise software, then we switch. What mean enterprise; 1) having official technical support 2) having R&D team and roadmap 3) Having official customer reference and so on.

The support for Micro Focus Service Virtualization is better than that for other products. The technical support staff are highly skilled. Sometimes, we don't have to open a ticket. We can just go into the community and then talk to them directly. I would rate technical support at seven out of ten.

I had to think about that a bit about what additional features I’d like in service virtualization quite a lot while here, especially when the solution architects are saying hey, we know you. Improvements, more like enhancements, with the rest API would be one. I think another thing I would rather see them implement is better use for their data driven model. Right now they’re using excel spreadsheets. I would like to see them implement a database instead of excel spreadsheets ‘cause sometimes you open excel spreadsheet that the data driven model built and it’s like 200 sheets big, it’s unmanageable. But the SQL server implementation that they provide now is through the-through the scripted roles and C#, and that’s not gonna be great for non-C# developers or JavaScript or you know, something at that point. They need to make it as part of the core tool.

Valuable Features

"It is easy to use. This is what I tell my customers. The coding is easier to develop as well."
"The most valuable feature is SAP virtualization."
"The feature which is most valuable in this solution is the ease of use. The product is very easy to use and very easy to implement."

Room for Improvement

"The monitoring feature is not impressive because they use Windows for so much monitoring. They set a lock on the window, and then we have to gather the information from the main monitoring feature in the Windows server. There is not enough capacity for problem solving performance issues."
"The integration with other solutions, such as ALM and Jira, should be improved."
"The current protocol needs to be updated to be much more flexible. The product needs more technical flexibility in implementation and customization."

Pricing

"It's an expensive solution, but you can get discounts. You have to buy one server and one designer together, for example, and it may cost 15 million Thai Baht."
"Micro Service Virtualization is very expensive. The pricing of this product is in line with all of the other big name-brand products."
