Application Development, Test, & Delivery is used to convert business requirements to reality and helps achieve business outcomes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The right methodology - Agile vs Waterfall, needs to be adopted. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* The number of supported protocols for testing, there is literary support for testing all kinds of applications

* Easy for beginners to learn, Trueclient Web protocol with recording by point and click on Web makes it fast to create scripts

* the types of testing supported, you can even use the product to do API testing instead of using Postman

* The product bundle is amazing, by buying the product today it includes SiteScope which is the most powerful monitoring solution and also Service Virtalization (7 services) which you can use to mimic missing test systems.

* Thw powerful Controller software which by easy you can create scenarios to mimic real world use case of load towards a system + the ability to monitor and control an ongoing test.

* The analytics tool of which you can dive deep into the result and find root causes for bad performance and the great ability to create reports.

I highly recommend this product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* Sometimea there are small bugs in the VuGen script error where it throws compilation errors first time and then you compile the same and it works.

* Some people thinks it hard to learn, but becoming a senior expert in Prrformanxe Testing takes a lot of experience, a single to does not make you an expert.

* In some project they want to use Open Source software instead to safe money, but Loadrunner now comes with a community edition which you can use, there can with a purchase of the product be tough for some projects to fully understand the license model and what options to pick.

The protocol support is pretty good, also love the control and power to set up and execute scenarios to emulate real-world interactions. Once all is done, the analytics are also very good to understand pain points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It may be considered a little hard to use, and quite a lot of settings, and options may create a painful experience even for the senior testers. The price is also something to look at, because there are quite a few competitors in the open-source market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease with which we can do the enhancement like correlation and parameterisation, Its very easy as compared to the other tools like Jmeter, Soasta Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

All the features are good, only you need a big screen to debug as there are multiple tabs available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Best suited for large workloads, trusted by testing community for many years Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The price can be aligned to more competitive for users as well more flexible to new days software scenario and lightweigts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lots of protocols support, easy to use, easy reporting , perfect graphical representation with the Analysis feature, user interface is much better than similar tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Expensive as compared to other tools in the market, TruClient protocol - browsers needs to improve (does not work as intended always) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Good use of human time. No peer tool which supports SQL Server, Oracle,Java, Web etc. Identify bottlenecks of hardware, software, infrastructure, memory etc using good analysis window for response time and throughput. Separation of script, generator, controller and agents. Set ramp up and ramp down strategy as needed.Agent can do things like IP spoofing to make look like load is coming from diff machines. Checkpoints can be image or text. Rendezvous points instruct users to wait during test execution for other users in order to perform the tasks simultaneously. Love that!

Tool is not open source and expensive. Also Vuser scripts saved in C which is case sensitive. You need to be really cognizant about co-relations planned to be used. Protocol advisor could have been more helpful. Also make sure caching is disabled while running tests. Configuration is little tough to figure out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to manage all the phases of performance testing and ease to maintain scripts in loadrunner and all types of applications support is available in loadrunner. The Analysis provided by loadrunner post completion of execution is the best and very much in detailed which helps resolve performance issues and bottleneck easily.

The ability to convert fiddler file into loadrunner is one of the best feature implemented in loadrunner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

sometimes loadrunner misses few request during recording a script which might leads to the script failure. Sometimes we faced issues while analyzing the results in loadrunner which leads to complete failure of test which is a more time consuming task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With various protocol bundles the LoadRunner can cover wide variety of application suits in an enterprise organization for performance testing.Scripts are easy to maintain with Performance Center integration. With LoadRunner thousands of virtual user can be simulated with consistent and repeatable load on the system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The user interface can be improved.Should have an option to see test results live for a particular user than overall response time of the load test. Include integration capabilities with other APM tools like Dynatrace and AppDynamics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Simple to utilize/learn interface. Numerous choices accessible to make the custom test contents and test situations. Wide assortment of conventions that covers dominant part of candidates types. All and every one of the a generally amazing device that meets all execution testing needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't think about any of the drawbacks. Be that as it may, if need to call attention to, I would state that test results should indicate data at each layer of engineering like reaction times at application, web, middleware, DB layer and so on Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
