Cooperative U - Case study
Cooperative U (formerly known as Système U), is a huge French retailers cooperative, made up of hundreds of independent hypermarkets and supermarkets, which makes it the one of the largest retail group in France. It's entire IT development and management is handled by U Tech (ex U IRIS), making performance testing one of its many responsibilities, in collaboration with SIGMA, a digital solutions provider they work closely with.
In 2022, while a Neoload customer for multiple years, U Tech decided to rethink it's performance strategy and looked for ways to improve its efficiency.
That's during this process that discussions with Octoperf started which ultimately lead Cooperative U's decision to make the switch from Neoload to Octoperf.
This article will explain why Cooperative U made this decision, how they implemented that change with SIGMA's help and what they are planning to do next to integrate Octoperf even more in their IT environment.
