Case Study: a corporate services provider unblocks payroll processing and boosts platform performance with Planit

Harnessing performance testing and engineering to unblock key business processes and boost the speed of critical business systems

A corporate services provider faced significant risk and a perplexing payroll processing issue as it consolidated several legacy systems onto a single new platform. They needed to benchmark the new system's performance and replicate the payroll problem to find a solution. The company engaged Planit for its performance testing expertise to address these challenges and establish a reliable testing framework.

Planit implemented a repeatable performance testing framework using tools like Apache JMeter to benchmark the system and successfully recreate the payroll issue. The testing identified that the problem was causing degraded performance for all payroll processing, not just a subset of customers, enabling a fix that saved the finance team countless hours of monthly effort. As a result of the successful engagement and quality of service, Planit was retained as a trusted partner and the relationship expanded to include functional testing and test automation.
