Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Ability to use different frameworks.""Game testing and the API for apps are good."

More Bitbar Pros →

"CBT has made it easier to troubleshoot issues across devices when we do not have actual access to those specific devices. I even opt for CBT sometimes when we do have access to the device just because it is easier.""The CrossBrowserTesting Selenium API and live test features have greatly improved our team's ability to quickly and effectively perform QA.""With screenshots, I can quickly verify a page looks universally good in minutes.""Video recording of the script running in a cloud server.""Each new session started with the live testing feature allows for a cleared browser and new experience to be able to not only see these attributes on the page clearly but also pass clean data.""I have found CrossBrowserTesting to be scalable.""It has increased the speed of our regression testing.""At the moment, all our deploys depend on results of automation. If the tests are failing, then we know that something is wrong at the early stages of development."

More CrossBrowserTesting Pros →

Cons
"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved.""Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."

More Bitbar Cons →

"Being able to test on real devices via the virtual connection is wonderful, but it can cause some lag and load time issues while testing.""The five minute timeouts can cause irritation if you have just popped away to consult some supporting documentation.""The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved.""Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up.""The speed connection in mobile devices could be improved, because sometimes the load time is uncertain.""This solution would benefit from faster testing and support for more devices.""Sometimes the testing is slow.""The screenshot tool defaults to a screen layout instead of a full page test. I find it a bit cumbersome that I can't have it run a full screenshot as my default."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."
  • More Bitbar Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The lowest price point is very reasonable. It is also useful if only one person in the company needs to check on the browser display."
  • "A few intermediary pricing options for small QA teams would be nice, e.g., unlimited screenshots, "as you need it" parallel tests, etc."
  • "CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."
  • "It is worth the pricing as the product is supported on multiple platforms and browsers."
  • "SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
