There are two type of Pricing provided by Blazemeter. One is for Performance & another one is for API's. They can create better package plan like for Performance Pro version they must have atleast 10000 Concurrent Users or should provide some better plan or price for both Performance + API's. They must have 6 month plan too. Apart from Pricing I find Blazemeter Best Performance/API's Testing Tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BlazeMeter Continuous Testing Platform?

It is easy to set up, and it just works. The configuration is relatively minimal. My application is in AWS, and as I recall, I was also able to configure my Blazemeter load generators in AWS. The reports were detailed, showing various percentiles, etc. I was able to run repeated versions of tests without paying per run because I had a subscription for one month. I was able to export and save reports. They have a lot of online training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BlazeMeter Continuous Testing Platform?

I thought it was expensive. I couldn't come close to affording an ongoing subscription, so I bought a one-month subscription. Pricing isn't ideal because I am going to have to run more tests. It would be nice to afford an ongoing subscription, so I didn't have to get into a smart and stop mode.

Also, as I recall, I had to relax my web application firewall to run the tests. It would be nice if there were a way to avoid this, though that might be inevitable as the WAF thought the heavy traffic was a DoS attack. At least that is what I remember. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
