«NeoLoad helped us find issues related to SQL commands, connections and SQL fine tuning. Thus we had a very successful application launch because we were able to fix these issues before we went live.»

«We created our load scenarios very quickly, by simply dragging and dropping. The software includes a number of actions (loop, timer, logical actions…) as standard features, which makes creating modular scenarios easy.»

"We evaluated some benchmarking tools and found that NeoLoad’s functionality suited our needs. NeoLoad was the easiest to set up and helped us to identify web site problems quickly. Also, their product support is first rate."

Michael J. Sutter - LAN & Network Services Director
Carle Clinic Association - USA


"Perpetual Entertainment has a platform that must support services from 50,000+ simultaneous users--with a planned installed base of up to 500,000.  Much of our platform is JAVA based and we needed a solution that would allow us to simulate high transaction load for registration, authentication, and live customer interactions such as auctions, forums, Knowledge Base, etc. NeoLoad 2.0 proved to be the perfect fit.

After installing the demo we were up and running in 30 minutes! Installation was easy, there were no problems building complex variable substitution and extractions and adding Linux load agents was a snap. The ability to distribute load and record scenarios, coupled with the new NeoLoad 2.0 system performance collection feature is truly astounding. We're excited to have found such a cost-effective, comprehensive solution to meet our demanding Web application load testing needs. "

Mark Rizzo - Vice President Operations & Platform Engineering
Perpetual Entertainment, Inc - USA


"After evaluating both open source and enterprise level software we decided to purchase Neoload for several reasons. One of the main advantages in Neoload comes with the ease at which scripts can be recorded and executed. You don't need to give up on the test coverage or scalability, and you can put almost any member of your team in front of Neoload to get results. Generating professional looking graphs and reports is quick and easy. The overall savings in man-hours during the load testing process is significant.
I have never worked with a company more eager to help. When in a crunch trying to get a client release out, Neotys Support answered all of our questions and offered advice until we were happy. (Not many companies will do that for you!)"

Christine Woods - Quality Engineer
Aprimo - USA


"Neoload has proved to be very easy to get started with, and contains many options for more detailed and complicated load testing. The ability to create many different user activity scenarios, each with different patterns of simulated user traffic and configurable options for web page form data entry, has been most useful. In addition, the ability to connect and control multiple load generator servers from a single master system in order to simulate very heavy loads has proved Neoload to be highly flexible."

Andy Sellick - Software Tester
QinetiQ - UK


"After evaluating several performance-testing products we chose Neoload because it provided all the facilities we needed at an affordable price. It is easy to use and obviously a lot of thought has gone into its design. The lack of scripting might seem a disadvantage to some but, on a typical web project that already uses several different technologies such as C#, HTML, SQL, XML, and XSLT, not having to learn yet another language was a great time saver. The reporting facilities are excellent, enabling us to produce professional-looking documents for our customer with minimum effort.

The support from Neotys has been outstanding with responses (and even hot fixes) received within hours."

Philip Turtle - Architect, 3D-VE High Performance Center
Unisys - UK


"Our product is used by large national and international banks, so assuring that all the t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted in the engineering side is critical.

NeoLoad plays a very important role not only to us but to our customers, helping us deliver a better product and providing the kind of performance analytics that our customers require in their purchase and operation decision making."

"NeoLoad provided a right sized solution for the challenge we were facing.
We are very satisfied with the product."

Keith Millar
Liquid Computing - USA


"Active evaluated many different solutions from free open source products to very expensive top of the line products for generating load. After really digging in on each of the products we settled on NeoLoad.

It saves us significant time over the open source solutions and we found that we really didn’t need all of the features that were in the expensive tools. We knew we had the right product when they didn’t have to send a consultant with the trial download to explain the software. We were getting relevant results within 30 minutes of installing the software."

Josh Schlesser - VP Technology
The Active Network - USA


"We were able to hit the ground running without training or specialist input thanks to the easy GUI. The response validation feature has also proved useful for simple functional checks as well as load tests, and being able to run several load generators (on different platforms) for the bigger loads is good.
We have found NeoLoad to be generally easy to configure and drive. Equally importantly, Neotys support has been quick and helpful.

The tool has proved itself very useful to us over several development projects so far, and has allowed us to identify and fix problems well before production rollout."

Lindsay Wakeman - Senior Software Engineer/Development Systems Administrator
The British Library - UK


"We have found Neoload to be easy to use. It requires minimum training and can be handled by people with no programming background.
And finally, its price was extremely competitive relative to our evaluation criteria."

"We are using NeoLoad in our Solutions team specifically for load testing websites on our new and current customers. The support that we have received from you guys has really been very good, quick responses and always willing to help (I just hope it stays this way).

It took us quite a while to find the right load testing software that would work for us, NeoLoad fits the bill perfectly."

Jacques Greyling - Director of Operations
RackSpace Managed Hosting - UK

"Performance and scalability are critical requirements for our solutions. The ease with which our benchmarking team was able to create test scripts in NeoLoad and then simulate hundreds of user sessions greatly contributed to the execution of our tests for performance and horizontal / vertical scalability as well as server-side hotspot analysis.

The ability to establish benchmarks based on a simulated production load scenarios has been of great benefit to Ventyx and our customers."

Fernando Alvarez - Director Product Architecture
Ventyx - USA


"We chose NeoLoad to carry out load testing of our web based Enterprise Risk Management application. We selected NeoLoad because it had the features we needed, at a more economical price than other tools we looked at. We also found it easier to use. We were able to get up and running quickly, starting with a 100 virtual user licence and scaling up to 500 virtual users. The outputs are easily understood by technical and non-technical staff.

The tool has allowed us to complete the testing we needed, helped us meet our scalability benchmark and give confidence to our customers.

Neotys have been responsive to our needs, and their support staff have been effective in dealing with our queries."

David Ellis - Development Director
Strategic Thought - UK

"To meet an increasing demand from our clients for load testing, we were looking for an ergonomic software package that provided all the required features.

NeoLoad quickly became a first choice, thanks to its ease of use and the clear presentation of its reports. During our evaluation, we also came to appreciate the Neotys team’s responsiveness, which has continued to this day!

Thanks to NeoLoad, we can now provide our clients with powerful load testing services at a competitive price."

Gabriel Labourasse - Product Manager
Linkbynet - France


"Constantly improving the quality of service to our clients is one of our major concerns, and we therefore needed a tool that would allow us to stress our different web applications (web sites and SOAP web services ). Ideally, we were looking for a tool that was efficient, comprehensive, easy to use and, above all, affordable.

Our choice quickly fell on NeoLoad from Neotys. This tool perfectly meets our needs, and we know that we can always count on the Neotys team’s responsiveness."

"When putting in production our intranet application, we had several challenges. The deployment architecture of this application was new for us, the potential load was high.

We choose NeoLoad for load testing, it was the perfect product: powerful, and easy to use. We have done our tests quickly, without training. NeoLoad allowed us to simulate hundreds of users on our application. The tests showed several configuration problems on the production platform before the deployment. Without these tests, we surely had several problems with our application in production. We would have been forced to stop the server, make the configuration changes, revalidate all the application, and put the application back in production without any confidence on the reliability under load.

Our application is in production since 10 days, and we don't have any problems thanks to these tests. The behavior of the application in production is the same as the one during the load tests with NeoLoad. I think that without NeoLoad, our application won't be in production at this time."
