Likelihood to Recommend We have been using HeadSpin for our web and mobile application testing. It is an easy-to-use solution that provides detailed and in-depth analytics from the testing results. We also get a wide range of live networks and devices to perform the testing from HeadSpin. It has an inbuilt artificial intelligence engine that helps us to get real-time scenarios simulated, which is very helpful for finding performance issues and improving the overall quality of the applications.
Read full review We are a services organization and we use Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals with our customers. It has allowed us to expand the footprint in the application management business with virtually all of our major accounts. We were able to expand and go into other applications that we weren't in or offering previously. Now, we have a new value proposition for our customer enhanced visibility, enhanced stability, and we can reduce our cost to them because our cost structure is reduced by using Riverbed SteelCentral AppInternals.
Read full review Pros Keep track of each browser we have tested and when we lastly updated them. Remove any deprecated code or plugins that may cause issues with other browsers. Add browser information to our site’s meta tags so that the site displays correctly in different browsers. Test our website on all browsers to ensure compatibility. Read full review Root cause finding/remediation (it goes beyond analysis). Shows latency between applications and servers. Identifies long-running SQL queries, and puts the onus back on developers to clean up their SQL code. Read full review Cons UI needs to be improved Graphs on the dashboard are a bit laggy and need detailing for a better understanding of the user Read full review The tool demands High CPU resources to perform monitoring which reduces the overall performance and the user experience is sluggish Also a good amount of training is required to set up the different use cases and monitoring parameters which in return demands a dedicated resource to work on the tool Read full review Support Rating The support I give the highest rating because it is really amazing. Every time we triggered the tool support, we were very well served very quickly and efficiently. The problems were solved quickly and without stress. The staff helped us within minutes and had a lot of patience with us

LambdaTest was cheaper, it did not offer the deal devices and we wanted to be 100% sure that our app offers a perfect experience to all users. Simulators and emulators are not the technology we wanted to rely on.
Read full review There is a wide variety of APM solutions out there for companies to pick from. Riverbed AppInternals sits near the top of the stack certainly. We already deploy steelhead units across the estate with client licenses, that aided us in our decision to select AppInternals. We found the costs of
AppDynamics and
New Relic ( which we had trials for) both costly against AppInternals.

Read full review Return on Investment Simplified the approach to test the mobile application on multiple devices from different vendors. This helped us to ensure the stability of the application in different environments. In-depth analysis to understand the loopholes in the application design function. This helped us to improve the application design and overall user experience. Read full review This product has really wonderful features and one of the most valuable ones is the transaction searches into TTW. This will show you the operations that occurred under conditions that the user specifies, giving you the opportunity to drill down on the things that are more important and affecting system performance. Besides that, the capability of analyzing each individual transaction captured to a very low-level detail (method call/line of code). This ability empowers the testing teams to provide more visibility to developers on how they can improve. Read full review ScreenShots
