Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"With screenshots, I can quickly verify a page looks universally good in minutes.""SmartBear has excellent, informative webinars, so keep an eye out for those.""The features that I find most useful and the ones that I use the most are local site testing, device and browser testing, and screenshots.""I can run a page through the screenshot tool, then send a URL with the results to my team.""This solution helps lower the overhead cost associated with buying multiple devices.""The support team is top-notch. I have a great relationship with them. They are extremely honest and responsive.""It was the perfect solution that saved us time and money to perform web viewing tests on real devices, which allowed our team to correct multiple failures in devices.""When developing new pages that have questionable functionality or coding, we will often use CBT to test it in a browser. CBT works with our testing environment and development site."

"We added Testim to our CI flow. It allows us to test only tasks that already passed sanity tests.""The tool's most valuable feature is the recently added AI feature.""The product is easy to use.""It is a highly stable solution.""Testim introduces three services covering validation steps, eliminating the necessity to write complex code.""The pre-defined tests are a great help, specifically the custom JS test that allows us to be able to use custom code to test complicated elements or scenarios.""The REST API features allowed integrated testing for select products to quickly make calls and test the UIs with API calls while the CLI allows us to matrix the grid function across browsers.""The automating smoke and regression tests have become easier and handier and manual efforts are saved."

Cons
"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.""I have experienced some lagging issues, and it does not seem like all of the testing environments are configured the same.""Sometimes the testing is slow.""The five minute timeouts can cause irritation if you have just popped away to consult some supporting documentation.""Sometimes, some of their instances fail, particularly in older versions of browsers.""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.""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."

More CrossBrowserTesting Cons →

"The API testing integration is a bit lacking and can be improved.""The UI could use a better design with a better user experience in mind.""There are common properties between multiple elements that we should be able to edit - such as 'when this step fails,' 'when to run this step,' and 'override timeout'. I should be able to update these properties if I select multiple elements.""The product's areas of improvement include pricing considerations and additional features related to visual testing and PDF handling.""I get a little bit confused while creating new branches.""The accessibility reporting features could be more robust to be reported at the script level and allow users to map down to the step level.""Testim sometimes fails due to stability issues. It doesn't always work consistently, especially after running multiple tests.""There were some issues in the product's initial setup phase in regard to the area of documentation since it wasn't very easy to understand everything mentioned in it."

  • "CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."

  • "SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
