"Fiddler's Straightforward and Simple"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

I like that Fiddler is very upfront about what it does and provides an easy to use interface to do it. It is clear where I am supposed to input my requests as well as the request body and authentication information (among other things). It is also very easy for me to see my past requests and past results. They are all present on the same page which is nice because I don't have to navigate to multiple different locations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

I dislike that Fiddler seems rather limited in its capabilities. It does not have a whole lot of functionality outside of simple REST requests that are run one at a time. I also do not like that I have to manually type out entire REST requests with exactly perfect syntax. It would be nice if it could do this in a more automated fashion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Progress Telerik Fiddler:

If you're going to use Fiddler, you need to know how REST requests are syntactically put together. There is no assistance for doing this within the application, so learning how to actually utilize it may be difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Progress Telerik Fiddler solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am able to easily test HTTP requests using REST. I am also able to quickly and easily access my past requests and save them to my computer to share with my coworkers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic and must have tool for performance engineers"

5/5

What do you like best about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

We use fiddler for our day to day activity of recording the application flow, capturing the rendering times of the pages, checking the network and latency and on many occasions debugging the issue as well. We like the way how we can save our session and import them in loadrunner to create loadrunner compatible custom requests. That makes easy for us to capture those request which are not captured in loadrunner and since we can import them directly into loadrunner that makes this tool very very useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Progress Telerik Fiddler?

While importing the requests captured in fiddler to loadrunner, presently it just imports them and create custom request. But in cases where we have huge no of requests which are needed to be imported, it becomes difficult in loadrunner to match how many requests are for which transaction. We would love to have a feature where while importing fiddler also create transactions in loadrunner on the basis of comments we have given for group of transactions.
