Use Cases and Deployment Scope

This speed test was used in a pinch to verify network connectivity from client sites. It is able to let us see the internet speed at a client site without the artificial metrics between an ISP server and the local network.

Pros

Speed test
Latency
Upload monitoring
Download monitoring

Cons

The application was dated

Likelihood to Recommend

It is very well suited for quick speed tests, but it serves its purpose there and nothing else. The software seems to be offline nowadays, but it was useful when it was available.

SourceForge Speed Test: easy to use and reliable

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use it mainly when trying to determine if the connection is not reliable or spotty. My boss constantly tries to defend the internet service provider and always claims that he is paying good money and that the service is best in class, but by using this tool I can give him sufficient proof that this is not the case.

Pros

Provide the down/up speed
Measure the ping speed
Determining the internet loss%

Cons

Websocketing can sometimes be unreliable
Ui can be slow at times
The ads would slow down my pc at times

Likelihood to Recommend

The sourceForge speed test would be well suited in most scenarios. From simply measuring your speed when connecting to new networks to trying to diagnose network issues at your house, workplace or any other environment where you may have spotty internet connection. I'd say is not well suited to get perfectly accurate results if needed for any type of network monitoring.
