We performed a comparison between Apache JMeter and Apigee based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two API Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It gives accurate results and recommendations that we can implement to enhance the performance of websites."
"The solution is scalable."
"It's open source, so I like that about the product. And there's a lot of community support for it."
"This solution is easier to use than any other tool in the market; there is not even a requirement to learn a lot of scripting in order to use it."
"We really appreciate that the solution comes with a live community, which continuously provided plugins and support protocols."
"I appreciate JMeter's simplicity and power for performance testing."
"JMeter is basically the art of the entire performance testing process."
"The metrics part of it and the ability to write your custom code to do some specific tests in the performance testing space are the most valuable features."
"Apigee has better scalability than WSA."
"It is easy to deploy, configure, and monitor the APA."
"It has a very efficient logging system which is easy to maintain."
"Easy interface to monetize and deliver APIs with very easy integration for third-party development environments/delivery."
"The most valuable feature is monetization."
"Apigee is very easy to use, and you can code in any language."
"Apigee gives you plenty of opportunities to set up your workspace depending on how you want to manage your APIs."
"The most valuable features are low-code play, quick packaging, and production."
"Apache should have a graphic interface."
"The initial setup is complex and needs to be upgraded."
"If JMeter could integrate with the EPM solution, it would be great. It could also be improved by offering more integrations for security. For example, most applications are secure with OpenID Connect protocols."
"Apache JMeter could use improvement in reporting. Currently, it isn't easy to generate reports in PDF format. While receiving reports in PDF format is possible, it requires a lot of customization. Additionally, when comparing the load test to others solutions it could improve."
"Running JMeter in GUI mode uses a lot of memory, which means we need to switch to a non-GUI mode when using a heavy load."
"At times when we overload the application, it gets stuck...After the solution gets stuck due to overloading, we have to restart our computers. In short, the solution keeps crashing."
"The user interface is a little bit tricky."
"If the solution was GUI based, I believe that it would be more versatile."
"I am still struggling to understand how we can use Apigee as a hybrid system. The pricing of this solution could also be improved as there are multiple new products coming onto the market at competitive price points."
"When there is an update on a new version or an automatic update, you have to be present and double-check that the update is reflected in the environment with no issues."
"It would be good if the Apigee management allowed us to be able to consolidate many operations into single one for the gateway functionality."
"Better functionality for validating inputs and outputs would be helpful."
"Integration should be improved."
"We need better performance monitoring."
"The cost of the solution is quite high."
"Areas like traffic handling of incoming requests, security features between third-parties and Apigee, and between Apigee and internal network servers, resources, or JSON areas, etc."
