    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.

    If you need to gauge whether your site is up or down, then Neustar will give you exactly what you are looking for. However, if you need more granularity for specific application or sub-systems and their functionality, this product will need to be subsidized with other applications that provide more data or information on how individual components or systems are working.

    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.

    • It allows access to a history of checks, how much time they took, and if any errors were detected.
    • It can alert several people, or many in a group, for information related to the application availability.
    • When drilling down into the check, the logs can pinpoint the exact time and code events and how long each step took to respond.

    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.

    • The interface can be buggy.
    • We have experienced false positives of a system outage that was not accurate.
    • It's not a true measure of system performance or uptime, but simply judges up or down from a holistic view.

    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.

    To be honest, I am not certain why this product was initially chosen over other products. It was being used when I started working at a new job. I was trained on its use and focused on tracking issues when an alert was given. There are many products that can be used for monitoring site uptime. Neustar definitely has its uses for monitoring if a site is up or down, but its lack of granularity can turn some away.

    • Our company at one time gauged overall system uptime using Neustar WebMetrics to provide this data
    • Due to the limitations with the applications ability to show system functionality and uptime we have begun using other methods for determining system uptime for our customers.
    • The interface can be a bit tricky to understand during first use. There is somewhat of a learning curve.
