Hey everyone! I’m curious if anyone knows of alternatives to Login VSI for application performance, load, and image testing on AVD/VDI. We’re specifically looking for tools that can simulate user workflows within AVD/VDI, measure the application response times, the impact of changes (like updated images, new security agents, etc.) on both host and application performance, and provide detailed reporting. Would love to hear your recommendations or experiences with similar products!

Automai?

I think Automai may have pulled back a little on EUC stuff maybe
There was VDI drones which i recall keeping an eye on, but not sure how it plays these days https://vdidrones.com

afair G0-EUC is using LoadGen

Indeed loadgen.com is what we use at GOEUC
eucscore.com also is a handy tool in the benchmarking toolbox @Benny Tritsch can help here

Hi DJ - what you are describing is "Synthetic Monitoring" and the genre of simulating realistic workflows is "Full Session" or "Client Session". I think we are the only mainstream EUC/AVD monitoring tool that includes this functionality at the moment - https://www.eginnovations.com/blog/synthetic-monitoring-of-microsoft-avd/
A general overview on the different genres of synthetic monitoring is given here - https://www.eginnovations.com/synthetic-monitoring
My colleague covered the few specialist tools available to do full session simulation in https://www.eginnovations.com/blog/application-centric-euc-monitoring-is-key-to-digital-employee-experience-dex/ - he said "There are currently only a few specialist tools available capable of performing full session simulations in EUC environments – I’m only aware of 4 credible vendor solutions on the market: Tevron, Itexis, Automai and LoginVSI (LoginPI). We license Itexis’s AppsMon solution within eG Enterprise to provide this type of monitoring within a single console alongside infrastructure and real user monitoring (RUM) to offer a unique end-to-end comprehensive monitoring option for EUC."
Because you've talked about the impact of change you may want to look at considering tooling with "configuration and change tracking" - @Barry Schiffer published some screenshots of this, towards the end of this article - https://www.eginnovations.com/blog/configuration-change-tracking/

Best alternative I know to LoginVSI is LoadGen.com. Its great at simulating user interaction and measuring responsetimes.

Hi DJ... If you don't end up finding something that meets your needs and you would like to discuss, please let me know. Happy to help. Is there a reason why you may not want to use Login Enterprise?
