Overall Satisfaction with Apache JMeter

Apache Jmeter is used for Azure Load Testing, we have created the scenarios using the JMeter and then we will run those through the Azure Load Engine. We are focusing on building the scalable cloud application so the Azure Load Testing using JMeter is important for us to understand the load of the server. We run the load testing with every release.

Pros

  • The integration with CI-CD has worked well
  • The possibility of running scenarios with different data
  • Dynamic data can be handled with external files like JSON, excel
  • Works well with the Azure Load Engines
  • The simulation of the concurrent users works nicely.

Cons

  • The user interface can be improved a lot. When making changes, we need to do multiple clicks and for non technical person, it is difficult to understand the flow so easily.
  • The modularity of the scenarios cannot be easily handled.
  • The inbuilt reporting is not a great one, though there is a possibility to integrate with external tools.
  • Does not support all the API's. We have grpc api and we need to workaround to work in the Jmeter.
  • We are able to get the results of the load in the server with high volume of data and user concurrency so it is easier to sell to the enterprise customers with the results from it.
  • There are no negative business impacts
The purpose related to performance and load testing through Apache JMeter works fine but the usability of the tool should be improved quite a lot. If someone starts with the Jmeter fresh without prior experience, they need to put more efforts in understanding the tool. The UI is not that great which is the main reason not to give high rating on usability.
We only have compared it with LoadNinja and in many aspects Apache JMeter is a better option. The LoadNinja is the enterprise tool so it does not offer the same flexibility and integration with other systems. The community support is great with Jmeter compared to LoadNinja.

Do you think Apache JMeter delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Apache JMeter's feature set?

Yes

Did Apache JMeter live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Apache JMeter go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Apache JMeter again?

Yes

Apache JMeter is still one of the powerful performance and load testing tool in the market. We have been using this solution to do load testing against our server hosted in the Azure Cloud. We have tried with different concurrent users and Jmeter has served our purpose. It also has very well integrated with our CI-CD systems. The big challenge is the UI and modularity in the JMeter.
