Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."It is a scalable solution."
"The main core concept behind this product is, it takes the overhead of maintaining all of your devices or particular computers. It continuously adds the latest devices that are coming into the market."
"It just added some flexibility. There was nothing that improved our coding standards, etc. because all of our UIs were functional before we tried it."
"The setup was quite simple. The website easily explains how to set it up and if you want to integrate it with BMP tools there are online simple step tutorials."
"Maintenance of the solution is easy."
"I like that it offers full device capability."
"The most valuable features are the variety of tools available."
"I have found that BrowserStack is stable."
"CrossBrowserTesting allows us to test our site with real-world devices in real-world scenarios and find what we're missing."
"The support team is top-notch. I have a great relationship with them. They are extremely honest and responsive."
"With screenshots, I can quickly verify a page looks universally good in minutes."
"I can run a page through the screenshot tool, then send a URL with the results to my team."
"The extensive range of products available to simulate is something I have come to appreciate as it has resulted in an ability to broaden the scope of our tests."
"This solution helps lower the overhead cost associated with buying multiple devices."
"I have found CrossBrowserTesting to be scalable."
"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."
"Sometimes BrowserStack is really slow and devices are not loading. it is really annoying and that's why we bought several newer devices because sometimes it's affecting us a lot."
"Adding better integration with frameworks, particularly testing frameworks like Robot, would be of more value to customers and make their jobs easier."
"I haven't seen AI in BrowserStack, making it in an area where improvements are required in the product."
"The solution is slow."
"Occasionally, there are disruptions in the connection which can interfere with our testing processes, especially when testing on phones."
"If you are inactive for 30 minutes, the solution will close."
"I would like for there to be more integration with BrowserStack and other platforms."
"We had some execution issues."
"We had some issues with the onboarding process and the cloud conductivity could improve."
"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."
"A problem that we are facing quite often is related to the network connection. Tests can fail if the remote CrossBrowserTesting's VM has connection problems. This happens mostly with browsers of Internet Explorer family which work on Windows OS."
"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up."
"Sometimes the testing is slow."
"I have had quite a few issues trying to use a virtual machine to test our application on."
"There should be more detailed training on CrossBrowserTesting."
"It would be useful if we can run the live-testing test cases on multiple platforms at the same time, instead of waiting for one session to finish."
