Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 18, 2024

Worksoft Certify and BrowserStack compete in the test automation and browser testing categories. Worksoft Certify has the upper hand in SAP integration and automation efficiency, while BrowserStack excels in cross-browser and device testing capabilities.

Features: Worksoft Certify offers parameter-driven action steps, lights-out testing, and a built-in framework with strong SAP integration. It supports various platforms such as Siebel, SAP, web-based, and terminal applications. Certify's ease of creating test cases with point-and-click features makes it user-friendly. BrowserStack provides comprehensive device and browser testing across multiple platforms, including features like geolocation testing, real-time debugging, and integration with automated testing frameworks. It supports a wide range of devices for thorough cross-platform testing.

Room for Improvement: Worksoft Certify could improve its web automation performance, user interface, and ease of version upgrades. Challenges with large script performance and technical support enhancements are needed. BrowserStack faces connectivity issues and lacks support for file uploads in mobile automation. Its high cost and some stability concerns remain areas for improvement.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Worksoft Certify is mainly deployed on-premises with some hybrid cloud options, and although customer service is decent, technical support experiences vary. BrowserStack is readily deployed on public cloud platforms, with users noting responsive customer service, despite some delay issues.

Pricing and ROI: Worksoft Certify's pricing is higher, using a traditional licensing model with significant ROI through reduced testing times. BrowserStack offers competitive pricing within its segment, cost-efficient especially for larger deployments, but is still deemed expensive by some users. Both products provide notable ROI, with Certify strong in long-term savings through automation.

Good in the area of automation and offers a high test coverage to users

I integrated BrowserStack into our company's web and application test workflows because it has plugins that work with browsers and applications, allowing for cross-browser testing. BrowserStack was really helpful for cross-browser testing in areas involving mobiles, web applications, or tablets. The tool can help with the testing across all applications. I have not experienced any time-saving feature from the use of the tool. My company uses the product for real-device testing since it has a bunch of devices in our library. My company has a repository where we do manual testing. BrowserStack improved the quality of our company's applications. Improvements I have seen with the testing part revolve around the fact that it is able to do testing at a fast pace. The quality of the product is better since it can go through all the parts of the applications, meaning it can provide high test coverage. The tool is also good in the area of automation. The test coverage is higher, and the time taken during the testing phase is less due to automation. I have not used the product's integration capabilities since my company doesn't have the option to look at other QA testing tools like Selenium, which can be used for the automation capabilities provided. The product should offer more support for cross-browser testing, device testing, and testing across multiple devices. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Powerful automation tool with a user-friendly interface, codeless automation, and adaptability to complex business processes, particularly in SAP environments

The tool itself is highly effective, especially when it comes to comprehensibility for newcomers. Even during the initial learning phase, I found it remarkably user-friendly. It facilitates quick onboarding and training of new resources. It offers features for building automation scripts, such as search and certify capture. A notable advantage is that it doesn't rely on other tools like Micro Focus UFT or Micro Focus ALM for script execution. Worksoft can run independently without the need for support from Microsoft Office, although the option to use it for maintaining data exists. The tool also includes debugging features and comprehensive reporting capabilities, generating PDF reports for easy analysis.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It's helpful for me to test on different devices."

"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."

"It is a scalable solution."

"BrowserStack has lots of devices to choose from."

"The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing."

"BrowserStack's best feature is browser testing across different platforms, including mobile."

"We like the model device factory for iOS and Android 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."

More BrowserStack pros

"The Capture 2.0 feature is good. Our clients like using it. It does not take long to create documentation."

"Our business users are doing regression testing as their day job. This is an add-on to their daily work. With everything so pressured in the industry, automation takes the pressure of these users."

"We prefer Worksoft over other platforms because it's a low-code solution"

"With autotesting, we have been able to eliminate duplication of test cases across those four areas. This has helped us knock down our number of test cases. Our test cases are also running more optimally. Therefore, it has very much helped in that sense, so we were able to eliminate a lot of test cases and get out of manual silos by running on autotesting, which is more efficient."

"If we write a new test that's 80 percent the same as an existing test, it is pretty straightforward to reuse the steps from existing tests for our new tests and build upon them."

"The tool is easy to use. It is a drag and drop Microsoft type of solution."

"It's module based and it's giving functionality."

"What I found most valuable in Worksoft Certify is its identification feature. I also found its automation feature valuable."

More Worksoft Certify pros

Cons

"I haven't seen AI in BrowserStack, making it in an area where improvements are required in the product."

"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 is some stability issue in the product, making it in areas where improvements are required."

"The solution is slow."

"It is difficult to use for someone who has little to no experience."

"Adding better integration with frameworks, particularly testing frameworks like Robot, would be of more value to customers and make their jobs easier."

"BrowserStack is scalable, but cost is significant for those living in Mexico."

"BrowserStack should work on its Internet connectivity although issues only occur occasionally."

More BrowserStack cons

"Reportings are not user-friendly."

"Our interactions with technical support has not been the best always and there is room for improvement especially with respect to the time taken to respond to cases. However, with the right contacts and reasonable escalations we have always managed to get quick attention on our cases."

"Worksoft Certify needs a bit of improvement for its web-based processes. It can be difficult because you need to recall the maps, then you still have to add-on for your browser. When you are using the browser-based testing, you cannot even move your mouse or do anything on your system when you are using the web-based testing. Therefore, it needs a bit of improvement on that side. While it does work, it needs improvement. From the SAP side, there is nothing better than Worksoft Certify. However, from the web-based, we are moving towards Fiori. SAP will soon be totally web-based. For Fiori, they need to be great with SAP testing. Thus, Worksoft has to improve the web-based testing part for Certify."

"I am aware that they have some challenges with some of their support resources, especially offshore which is very common. I don't think this is specifically a Worksoft issue. It always seems to be a software issue, and I know that Worksoft is aware of this and they are trying to make some improvements."

"I would like Worksoft Certify to do automation at any layer (the UI layer, API layer, or database layer) and challenge competitors in the RPA industry, like UiPath and Automation Anywhere."

"One feature that could be added to Capture 2.0 is generating a PDF file from your capture, so you can see your screenshots and steps."

"With one of our applications where we do check-in, Worksoft is not able to identify the Java-based application. We raised the ticket, but we were unable to resolve this using Worksoft."

"The problem with Worksoft Certify is that it's not always stable. It runs on a live platform that's constantly changing, so the test script needs to be adjusted every time, which is very painful."

More Worksoft Certify cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BrowserStack could have a better price, but good things have a price."

"The price of BrowserStack is high."

"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."

"The price is fine."

"As for pricing, I can't provide a clear evaluation as I'm not directly involved in those discussions."

"This solution costs less than competing products."

"Compared to other solutions, BrowserStack is one of the cheapest."

"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."

"Automating our manual processes has saved us 70 to 80 percent in time."

"This solution has enabled our clients to automate and save time (approximately 40 to 50 percent)."

"We would purchase more licenses right now if they were cheaper. Pricing is a little bit of a hindrance."

"Worksoft Certify is slightly more expensive compared to other automation tools that are available on the market. However, the majority of the clients who are utilizing this solution, don't care much about the price. The main aspect the clients look for is its stability and reliability on the automation and whether they are able to rely on the automation scripts."

"We save probably 50 percent of our time. The tool does what it's supposed to do, and we are able to actually work."

"This solution has enabled us to automate in order to tremendously save time. Only first time when you are recording and creating the script will you spend some time with it, the rest of the time, you are just executing."

"The price is in line with everyone else's in the market. They are not cheaper nor more expensive than anyone else who was in our RFP."

"This solution is expensive."

Reviews from Real Users

Jens N., Enterprise Architect SAP Solutions at a computer software company, writes, “As compared to other tools for test automation, what is very good in this tool is the ability to implement logic into the scripts without coding and learning a complex script language. It is comparable to defining formulas in Excel. It is pretty easy to learn how to make your scripts more intelligent and more flexible as per the situation.”
