QA Engineer at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Automated regression has reduced repetitive testing and now needs simpler setup and reporting
I think that Appvance AIQ Platform can be improved by making some of the advanced features easier to configure and more intuitive for new users. The platform has a broad range of capabilities, so the learning curve can be a little easier when you first start working with it. I would also like to see more flexibility in customizing dashboards and reports for different QA teams and projects. It is a strong platform for automated testing, particularly for expanding regression coverage and reducing repetitive manual testing. But I would leave some room for improvement around the learning curve, as I mentioned earlier, and reporting customization, making some advanced features more accessible would be really useful for new users.

It's not easy to get out once you're in
Sitelock may perform a useful service, but be wary of giving them your credit card information. When you sign on for the paid service, Sitelock: * Hides (makes it difficult to find) that they default the auto-renew (you can't sign up without agreeing to have them automatically bill your credit card every year). * Hides (makes it difficult to find) how to stop auto-renew: * You can't just stop auto-renew from your billing panel, the way you can with reputable businesses. * You have to hunt their website for a link (in extremely small font) to the page which contains instructions for cancelling. * When you get to that page, turns out it's the 5000+ word "Terms of Service" document, which you have to scour to find a phone number. Then, you have to call and get put on hold (or if you like, they will call you back three days later). Once you finally get through, you have to jump through a lot of security hoops. All of the above, just to cancel the service. Their product may or may not be OK, but be forewarned that with Sitelock, it's not easy to get out once you're in.
