dotcom-monitor LoadView vs. Oracle Application Testing Suite (legacy)

dotcom-monitor LoadView is great for testing our ability to handle large amounts of visitors and their interactions with our site. It's also great at testing more complex interactions. For us, it's been invaluable for preparing for big events like class registration and wide-scale virtual events. It doesn't work as a CI tool but they do offer other products to serve that purpose.

dotcom-monitor LoadView is the only product like it that I have used. It's been extremely reliable and the organizations I have worked with who use it have been existing customers. I am sure other products like it exist, but I have never encountered any issues that would persuade me to start evaluating competitors

Oracle Application Testing Suite is much more useful and we work more than ZAPTEST because it is a life cycle tool that allows us to define and manage your application test process, validate the functionality of the application and ensure that your applications work under load. Implement web applications and web services in less time while maximizing the efficiency of the tests.

• Some of our applications had struggled with performing well under high load times and was adversely affecting the usage of our client services. Using Oracle Application Testing Suite we were able to diagnose some of the architectural flaws and helped make our apps more performant.
