OpenText LoadRunner Enterprise Reviews

LoadRunner Enterprise's most valuable features are load simulation and creating correlation for parameters.

LoadRunner Enterprise's reporting should be quicker, easier, and more flexible.

I've been using LoadRunner Enterprise for five to six years.

LoadRunner Enterprise is very stable.

LoadRunner Enterprise is scalable.

Micro Focus' technical support is fast and efficient.

The initial setup is very straightforward.

I would give LoadRunner Enterprise a rating of nine out of ten.

Using multiple controllers and using random LG’s for different executions with IP spoofing really helps to simulate realistic scenarios.

Previously, we had different physical machines for each controller, and then we shifted to Performance Center. It allows users to log into a single instance and to manage all other controllers from there.

I think Stormrunner is the best example of a cloud based solution, so it may be that Performance Center can have a better, richer, and faster UI.

I've used it for one year.

No issues encountered.

I started with HP products.

It was a bit complex in terms of administration but we got help from technical people.

I was not completely involved in implementation, so I don’t have much information on this.

I think HP has a straightforward approach.

• Ability to execute performance tests
• Live-screen display of test load runs
• Generation of performance test reports
• Live server-side performance metrics

It has contributed greatly to the performance/stress testing of our application prior to going live and deployment. It gives our project teams a level of comfort and a baseline idea of how the performance of our application will be after going into production.

The UI should be improved in the next version.

Only very rarely does it do so, but there have been issues with its host going into non-operational status.

The level of support from HP is average.

I have not used any alternative to this product.

Initial set-up of the product was a little bit complex, and setting up the servers was little difficult.

We used a vendor team.

ROI is excellent.

It's a little expensive. The pricing is based on on the number of virtual user licenses.

I would say that it is a great investment for your organization. Going forward, HP is going to implement many impressive new features in this software.

Overall, I am satisfied with this product.

All of the features are available with Micro Focus LoadRunner Enterprise.

The user interface is fine. It's intuitive.

I believe the data that demonstrates the automated correlations should be corrected. In addition, because it requires a lot of hardware, true client-based scripting should be improved. That needs to be improved.

I have been working with Micro Focus LoadRunner Enterprise for the last ten years.

The response time for technical support is extremely slow. They are generally not well-versed.

The technical support is awful.

There were no issues with the implementation process. It was okay.

The price is a bit too high.

I would rate Micro Focus LoadRunner Enterprise an eight out of ten.

• Test and resource scheduling
• Test runs trending
• Network virtualization and the new NV Insights report
• Cloud integration
• New Web UI
• Jenkins integration
• Performance Application Lifecycle

• It made performance testing for global teams work more natural.
• Performance Application Lifecycle allowed us to really build our load test according to the traffic we see in production.
• Trending shows us exactly the performance impact of our latest software changes.
• Using Jenkins, we managed to automate our performance testing as part of the CI.

Features in the Web UI should be enhanced. We should be able to do everything from the Web UI. without ever needing to download the old ActiveX ALM UI.

Four years.

No issues.

No issues.

We easily managed to run load tests of 100K concurrent Vusers on our web application, so scalability was not an issue for us.

An eight out of 10.

A seven out of 10.

I did not rate other solutions.

Pretty straightforward.

In-house.

We considerd SOASTA CloudTest.

The most valuable feature is the enterprise card. It allows us to use our central software for all our testers who are located worldwide.

It's a rather complex product. There are always things that could be better, such as new protocols that allow for more efficient testing and sharing of data across our teams.

It needs to be able to inform us what our current situation is, that is, what version we're on, etc. This is important because we do reinstalls and upgrades once a year, so that information is still valid for us each time we do that.

We have been using it for six years.

The stability is pretty good.

It's the right size for us right now for our purposes and we will not grow out of it any time soon. So scalability is not relevant at this time.

When you initially file a support case, it's difficult because they ask you many technical question to assess the problem. This takes a long time. I think there should be a better way for HP to know what the situation is so that you don't have to think about it for half a day.

The initial setup was OK, wasn't too complex.

We worked out the complexities ourselves.

I've looked, but I haven't found any alternatives -- including web-based applications -- that are better than Performance Center.

It's a very capable solution and I highly recommend it.

This solution is used for performance testing.

The most valuable features are the multiple schedule and load setup preferences in a test scenario. It is also flexible in scalability.

We encountered cookie banner issues when opening LRE.

I have been using this solution for six years.

It is stable.

The scalability is good.

I would definitely recommend LoadRunner for performance testing of any application/system with a wide variety of protocols. It's a great tool for capturing performance bottlenecks and its commendable analysis and reporting.

I would rate it nine out of ten

We have used Performance Center for Java and .NET applications performance testing with a user load of 2000 users.

It has improved our organizational performance. We are delivering fine performance results and performance recommendations using Performance Center.

• Analysis of results
• Schedule of test
• We can book load generators.
• We can choose LGs based on the required configuration. 
• IP Spoofing can be done using Performance Center.

• Monitoring tools which are available in Performance Center.
• More real-time monitoring should be available for the system under test. 
• Dashboard creation should be implemented, so we can get the results in a desired format.
