Knowledgeable support, scalable, and stable
We use CrossBrowserTesting for testing our web-based applications We had some issues with the onboarding process and the cloud conductivity could improve. I have used CrossBrowserTesting within the past 12 months. CrossBrowserTesting is stable. I have found CrossBrowserTesting to be scalable.…

Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"When I started to work on testing automation, I was very excited about how easy it is to run tests on different browsers. It was just a matter of configuration."
"The screen shot portal is essential for an easy way to run tests across hundreds of browsers and retrieve screenshots which then indicate success or failure."
"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."
"Selenium Grid allows testing multiple platforms to insure functionality for most users."
"I can run a page through the screenshot tool, then send a URL with the results to my team."
"The CrossBrowserTesting Selenium API and live test features have greatly improved our team's ability to quickly and effectively perform QA."
"Overall, this solution has proved useful to our organization, and with future improvements and the hopeful addition of devices, it will continue to be a tool we use daily."
"The ability to choose from many devices is the best feature."
"The slow nature of a cloud platform was compensated with parallel testing, and now we are able to finish our testing job faster than it was before COVID."
"LambdaTest proved to be a savior for us here, as one platform does the job!"
"LambdaTest is brilliant."
"Using LambdaTest, we could run all our functionality tests across various browsers, OS, and resolutions."
"LambdaTest was handy and easy enough to save us a lot of time, effort, and money."
"LambdaTest has made our testing process less tedious with automated parallel testing."
"It's user-friendly and offers valuable features for testing, making it a reliable tool."
"LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
 

Cons

"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up, as I still sometimes experience lag, which no one loves."
"A wider range of physical devices with more browser versions in the Selenium Grid would be great to insure users with out-of-date devices are able to interact with our sites."
"The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved."
"The speed to connect to mobile devices needs improvement, and sometimes the connection fails."
"The speed connection in mobile devices could be improved, because sometimes the load time is uncertain."
"Sometimes the testing is slow."
"We had some issues with the onboarding process and the cloud conductivity could improve."
"Automated testing could be improved."
"There is scope for improvement in service account usage, LDAP integration, and adapting new devices and features."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"Load flow compared to other stacks needs improvement."
"The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
"For us, Cypress! It looks like the support for Cypress is not there."
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing."
"I think Lambdatest is a valuable tool for our team and things that have room for improvement would be mobile app testing, as it can be an important addition to the tool."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."
"A few intermediary pricing options for small QA teams would be nice, e.g., unlimited screenshots, "as you need it" parallel tests, etc."
"It is worth the pricing as the product is supported on multiple platforms and browsers."
"SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
"The lowest price point is very reasonable. It is also useful if only one person in the company needs to check on the browser display."
"From the customer side, LambdaTest is cheaper for big company usage and works fine as other similar applications."
"LambdaTest is paid per execution."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"It is free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy."
"This is an affordable product."
"The pricing for LambdaTest is affordable, and one of the reasons we implemented it."
"LambdaTest is priced well, which is why we migrated to it."
"It is affordable as compared to similar SaaS solutions."
