    Perforce Software
    It is well suited for applications that are mission-critical or applications that can receive high traffic/transactions at unscheduled time periods. Using the load testing feature of BlazeMeter, we can test and ascertain the capacity of the application without the drawbacks of the usual Apache JMeter load testing which depends heavily on the host system from where the load testing is performed.

    Gatling
    Gatling requires Scala code to run high-quality scenarios. The recorder helps, but does not provide an immediately usable path. In the results, it is difficult to analyse the errors encountered during a load test. We can identify when errors occur, but it is challenging to pinpoint the cause at a given moment.

    Pros
    Perforce Software
    • BlazeMeter takes the .jmx script that teams had written for JMeter. The transition from JMeter to BlazeMeter was seamless.
    • BlazeMeter offers its own cloud and hence we did not have to set it up on-premise.
    • BlazeMeter hits our application from various geographic locations that simulates real life users.

    Cons
    Perforce Software
    • Blazemeter reporting is very basic and shallow. There is no way to drill down or correlate. I can get better reports by using JMeter for free.
    • Blazemeter is very costly. Testing with volumes of more than 1K cu is expensive, and can be done for much cheaper if a company/team is willing to invest a bit of time to figure out how to use cloud instances and jmeter slaves, and to write a basic script to collect resulting xml output.

    Gatling
    Our tests are only run via an integration platform (Jenkins), and only the results are analysed using Gatling reports. The difficulty lies in maintaining the Scala scripts, which must keep pace with changes in the application over time. New use cases must be thoroughly documented for testers who are not directly involved in development.

    Alternatives Considered
    Perforce Software
    In comparison with Blazemeter the closes competitor is JMeter but it has disadvantages like it is not a tool that can be use as a collaborative tool and works locally in a computer, Blazemeter is in the web so different people can access and run tests or collaborate do add, edit or delete the existent scripts.

    Gatling
    Gatling can only be used for high-load tests with a paid license and only for tests with a reduced graphical user interface (GUI). Unlike OctoPerf, NeoLoad, or LoadRunner, we are not limited to a fixed number of users per license. Compared with JMeter, Gatling is less resource-intensive and therefore does not require an extensive test infrastructure.
