We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I've worked on testing integrations with BrowserStack, particularly with a platform called IT. This involves testing the registration process, including receiving verification codes on devices and phones. BrowserStack has been excellent for testing these integrations, providing a seamless workflow development experience.""The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing.""The most valuable feature is that it provides parallel and cross-browser testing. It enables us to run tests on multiple browsers or devices simultaneously.""We like the model device factory for iOS and Android devices.""The product's initial setup phase was not very difficult.""The product guides and resources are extensive and very helpful.""The most valuable feature is the variety the solution offers around the different types of devices, especially mobile devices.""BrowserStack has lots of devices to choose from."

More BrowserStack Pros →

"The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good.""It helps in identifying defects earlier. With manual testing, that 15-day timeline meant there were times when we would find defects on the 11th or 12th day of the cycle, but with automation we are able to run the complete suite within a day and we are able to find the failures. It helps us to provide early feedback.""Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier.""Object Repository Technology, which is a good mean to identify graphical components of the applications under test.""This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain.""It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting.""One advantage of Micro Focus UFT is that it is more compatible with SAP, Desktop ECC SAP, than S/4HANA.""Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes."

Cons
"We are struggling to do local testing.""BrowserStack operates at a slow pace, it could improve by making it faster.""Adding better integration with frameworks, particularly testing frameworks like Robot, would be of more value to customers and make their jobs easier.""If you are inactive for 30 minutes, the solution will close.""We had some execution issues.""I would like to see clearer visibility.""It is difficult to use for someone who has little to no experience.""The solution is slow."

More BrowserStack Cons →

"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute.""I would like to have detailed description provided to test the cloud-based applications.""Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers.""I would want to see a significant improvement in the tool's features. The most significant enhancements are support for panel execution and integration with DevSecOps.""Sometimes, the results' file size can be intense. I wish it was a little more compact.""We have had some issues with stability, where it crashes sometimes.""The price is very high. They should work to lower the costs for their clients.""One thing that confused me, and now just mildly irritates me, is that we migrated from QuickTest Pro to HP UFT, Unified Functional Test. After we did the migration, it turned out that we didn't really have Unified Functional Test at all."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This solution costs less than competing products."
  • "The price is fine."
  • "There are different licenses available that can be customized. You can select the features that you want only to use which can be a cost-benefit."
  • "BrowserStack could have a better price, but good things have a price."
  • "The price of BrowserStack is high."
  • "Compared to other solutions, BrowserStack is one of the cheapest."
  • "My company found the product's license to be very compatible with our budget, and we pay 5,000 to 10,000 per year for licenses."
  • "As for pricing, I can't provide a clear evaluation as I'm not directly involved in those discussions."
  • More BrowserStack Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
  • "The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
  • "It's an expensive solution."
  • "For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
  • "The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
  • "The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
  • "The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
  • "The price is one aspect that could be improved."
