SOAPSonar vs. Spirent TestCenter

SOAPSonar proved handy not only for our SOAP and REST API & Webservice testing, but also included SMTP Support, which was great for us. Our QA team found this very useful for our internal testing needs, and we were also able to simulate load, performance testing for our webservices using SOAPSonar

Spirent solution is well suited to qualify a Lan infrastructure bandwidth capacity or a device itself capacity such as a router or a firewall for example. But this solution in our case is also well suited to test a complex and numbered mpls environment. I would not recommend it to a small business as the solution is very expensive: châssis and card cost are expensive and the solution requires to be an advanced user in system, not only on network devices

I wasn't able to specifically test other big products but I did use other free products in the past such as iperf, but free softwares don't allow the same level of support ans ease to use than Spirent
