We performed a comparison between BrowserStack, Galen Framework, and OpenText UFT One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."BrowserStack has lots of devices to choose from."
"The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing."
"Local testing for products with no public exposure is an advantage in development."
"It's helpful for me to test on different devices."
"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."
"Testing across devices and browsers without maintaining that inventory is invaluable."
"Maintenance of the solution is easy."
"I have found that BrowserStack is stable."
"What I like most about Galen Framework are its advantages, particularly its spec language and the spec file feature."
"The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement."
"The entire framework is very useful. It's easily integrable with Excel."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"Record and Replay to ease onboarding of new users."
"I like the Help feature in UFT One. For example, if you are navigating a particular window, where there are different options. One wouldn’t know the purpose of every option, but there is no need to search because that window contains a Help button. If you click on that Help button, it directly navigates to the respective help needed. VBScript is very easy to understand and easy to prepare scripts with minimal learning curve."
"The ease of record and playback as well as descriptive programming are the most valuable features of UFT (QTP)."
"I like the fact that you can record and play the record of your step scripts, and UFT One creates the steps for you in the code base. After that, you can alter the code, and it's more of a natural language code."
"It is a stable solution."
"I haven't seen AI in BrowserStack, making it in an area where improvements are required in the product."
"There is some stability issue in the product, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"There is room for improvement in pricing."
"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."
"It is difficult to use for someone who has little to no experience."
"I would like to see clearer visibility."
"BrowserStack should work on its Internet connectivity although issues only occur occasionally."
"One of the biggest issues with BrowserStack is that if you don't have your network set up by the book, it's hard to get it to work with local desk machines."
"There don't seem to be functions available for automatically generating Galen values based on the specifications in the spec file, and this could be a potential improvement for Galen Framework."
"The UA objects are sometimes hard to recognize, so the coverage should be increased. Open-source alternatives have a broad scope. Also, it's sometimes difficult to make connections between two of the components in the UFT mobile center. It should be easier to set up the wireless solution because we have to set both. We directly integrate Selenium and APM, so we should try to cover all the features they have in APM and Selenium with the UFT mobile."
"The solution is expensive."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
"Sometimes, the results' file size can be intense. I wish it was a little more compact."
"The product wasn't easy for developers to learn and pick up in the area revolving around scripting for automation, and there was a lot of resistance from developers, causing my company to rely on specialist resources."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"They need to reduce the cost because it is pretty high. It's approximately $3,000 per user."
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."
