Case Study: Sporting Index achieves faster, more reliable performance testing with Neotys' NeoLoad

Sporting Index enhances website quality and performance with the help of NeoLoad

Sporting Index, the world’s largest sports spread betting company, relies on real‑time pricing across web and mobile apps and needs sub‑100ms response times for thousands of concurrent users and multiple live-event tabs. Their legacy testing approach with HP LoadRunner was slow, unreliable and cumbersome, creating a performance‑testing bottleneck that threatened rapid releases and accurate production prediction.

After trialing and adopting NeoLoad, Sporting Index cut full test cycles from five days to one and now runs performance tests every sprint. NeoLoad delivered faster, more reliable and configurable testing (20 tests/day vs. 4), agentless real‑time monitoring, lower annual support costs (~25% of LoadRunner), quicker mobile releases, and improved capacity planning—enabling faster time‑to‑market and greater confidence when changing critical systems.
