    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.

    I think that LoadComplete is adequate when you have Testcomplete. If LoadComplete is not paired with Testcomplete then there would be a bit of a learning curve. People who are already using Testcomplete will find it easy to start with LoadComplete but the tool itself has a lot to improve and support customization to suit our needs.

    Customer support is good. If any concerns are raised, they are usually resolved soon, but when questioned about a feature LoadComplete does not support, it usually takes more time to resolve.

    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

    • This tool always yields eye-catching results. It has good support from the documentation. Also, it generates detailed reports which is a very good thing.
    • There is also a record and play feature in LoadComplete which means all applications can be recorded like Applications Servers’ Metric and so on.
    • This tool has a good reporting and record playback due to which I will recommend it.
