Download Apica ProxySniffer - Official Manufacturer's Website

The ProxySniffer GUI is provided at no cost and can be used for an unlimited time. The free GUI contains also a free "limited local load generator" capable of executing 20 virtual users for 10 minutes per load test job. You can instantly download, install and use the GUI on any machine without any costs - and you can execute small load tests for free before purchasing a license.
	If you immediately want to perform a large load test right now you can rent cloud-based load generators per hour. That can be done instantly, meaning that no ordering process for a license is required. The pre-installed, cloud-based load generators can be started directly from the Proxy Sniffer GUI and are ready-to-run in less than 4 minutes! You need only a Credit Card and an Amazon AWS Account to use this service. You can start up to 20 cloud-based load generators simultaneously (each one licensed to simulate 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 or 10000 users) that allows you to simulate up to 200,000 concurrent Web users. Check our competitive prices and you will see that using the cloud-based load generators is an inexpensive and powerful option. Further information is available in the handbook of generating load from the cloud.			Alternatively, if you need to perform large load tests from "local" load generators that are running on your company's servers and workstations you can rent a "local" license for a fixed license fee per year. Depending on the license type you can simulate between 200 and 1,000,000 concurrent Web users (or even more). In addition, the cloud-based load generators can also be licensed per week for a flat rate. In case if you plan to make extensive use of the cloud-based load generators it might be more cost effective to order a Weekly 20,000 VU Cloud License or a Weekly Unlimited Site and Cloud License.
