"The number of protocols that it supports, and especially, for example, when it talks about SAP GUI-based performance testing."
"The stability of Micro Focus LoadRunner Professional is very high. It is the leading tool for stability."
"LoadRunner is a very sophisticated tool, and I can use many languages. For example, I can use Java. I can use C++. I can test the Internet of Things, FTP, mail, and Active Directory. It is very useful."
"The most important feature for us is that it supports a lot of protocols because we support all of them, including HTTP, FTP, mainframe, and others."
"We don't find any features lacking. One of the most beneficial points we have from LoadRunner is we start sizing our infrastructure accordingly. So what we do is when we deploy a new workload, we do performance testing."
"It has good protocol coverage."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable features are functional testing and the central repository that contains various scripts."
"The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development."
"The function test feature is valuable."
"OpenScript has many features that make it useful, including the ability to record and playback."
"I like the functional testing. There's a product inside OATS called OLT, Oracle Load Testing. You can do the load testing without depending on any other tool"
"We find the front-end interface of this solution to be very user-friendly, meaning easy navigation even for novice users."

"There's a reporting part of the cloud that could be improved a little bit."
"The solution needs to reduce its pricing. Right now, it's quite expensive."
"Sometimes, we aren't able to see an accurate page view while replying and executing the script. When you are navigating the application side by side, it needs to be displayed on a random viewer. Sometimes we will get a few applications, and we won't get others."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high-quality technical support, I rate the support a one."
"The product is pretty heavy and should be more lightweight."
"Instead of having too many graphs and tabs, use the analysis section to get a more simplified defect analysis."
"If the support of the protocols was the same throughout the other protocols and it was there evenly, then I would rate the product higher."
"I would like to see better dashboards."
"If there's a feature we want in OATS that's missing and we report that to Oracle, it takes a long time."
"The dashboards need to be simplified and made more user-friendly."
"We would like to see the instruction documentation made into video or audio formats, to help new users get used to the modules."
"I have faced issues with some indexing items."
"Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve by offering desktop-based application automation. It is lacking in this area at the moment."
"Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac."
"Licensing policies could be more intuitive."
