Testimonials
“The business decision was pretty straightforward to buy it. We had been benchmarking some online and batch scenarios in our Server Engineering group. I used Performance Surveyor to analyze multiple iterations of the performance tests, and [to automatically] issue reports that showed the incremental changes across each test as well as against the production environment in order to make the best decision in Server Engineering. After I showed the VP of Server Engineering these reports, he went to the Sr. VP of Infrastructure Engineering and Operations and told them we had to buy this solution. These are uses that BPA and Predict aren’t directly designed to handle, but together with Performance Surveyor it is a great new combination.”
