What do you dislike about Spirent Communications?

The licensing mechanism is a bit complex with Spirent which has led to delays. Cost of the each license is different and is on the higher side as compared to other simulators available in the market.

The customer support isnt that great with the bugs which have been raised with Spirent team. It takes a couple of months to get the fixes/patch for the issues raised which using Spirent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Spirent Communications:

The product is great except its expensive. If you looking into performance testing , this is the tool that you should be looking into it.

In terms of functional test cases, this is not that flexible and has to procure other licenses to make it work which shall eventually increase the overall cost.

Customer support is quite slow so dont count on that !! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
