Tayyaba  Noreen - PeerSpot reviewer
Empowers effective test automation with comprehensive platform coverage and scalability
There was no free trial in it. So, I studied it through a page that tells how it works. It will be good if a free trial is provided for users. Moreover, I would like to give some feedback on the installation process. There are other tools that are much easier to install and get started with. Eggplant could improve its installation process.
Dinesh Saharan - PeerSpot reviewer
The tool reduces the manual effort needed and helps automate certain tasks for users
I won't be able to comment on what could be improved in the solution since I am not the one who handles LambdaTest. It is our company's IT team that takes care of LambdaTest. Improvements on a platform need to happen on a timely basis. If something is perfect, it doesn't mean that it doesn't need to improvise or improve, like in terms of adding new features. There should be some new features coming up or some performance improvisation over a period of time.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is a stable one."
"The biggest advantage has been the ability to improve the quality significantly."
"It provides very strong cross-platform support."
"Eggplant Test is valuable due to its OCR technology, which is independent of underlying technologies and can identify applications based on labels such as 'username' and 'password'."
"The solution is based on a Windows model, where adding users is just a few clicks. It is easy to manage users and add them."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"We did see a massive return on investment from using Eggplant."
"The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing."
"The solution is very easy to understand and has a user-friendly UI."
"The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly."
"The most valuable features are that it's essentially on-demand, and you only focus on getting the code that needs to be executed without having to worry about the OS, hardware, etc."
"LambdaTest is easy to use, and the documentation provides all the needed information."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"Geolocation testing is as straightforward as ticking checkboxes of browsers, operating systems, and countries."
"The real devices feature is the most valuable feature for us."
 

Cons

"The IDE could be even more full-featured. Because I was a developer, I was very spoiled by either Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio for shortcuts. For example, I was able to say "ctor" and hit Tab and it would create a template of a constructor for me... It would be great, when I want to create a new function, if there were shortcut commands like those that helped create all of the functions, or if there were shortcut features to do any of the complex plans."
"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant."
"A step forward would be to have event support, because it is more or less linear at the moment."
"There was no free trial in it."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application."
"Its performance and stability could be better."
"Since there are very few customers in the Indian region, there is no training available, and it's challenging to find skilled talent."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"Their smart testing module needs improvement."
"LambdaTest needs to have native application testing, which would be a great help to my team."
"It would be much easier for us to read the test if they provided dashboard analytics."
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing."
"I didn't like the solution's technical support and how they communicated and tried to fix the issues of customers like me."
"Responsive testing UI is a bit cluttered, whereas the LT browser is much better to use."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It probably has a yearly license."
"Eggplant Test is a very expensive solution."
"This solution is expensive when compared to the market. However, the reason it is more expensive is because of its stability, high performance, and for its support of any technology."
"Make a smart decision about the number of developer- and execution-only licenses you purchase to maximize your budget. We found that going heavier on execution-only licenses has been a way to reduce our costs and maximize our ability to benefit from the software."
"It is scalable, but it is a matter of money in the pocket. You can scale it, but then you have to have additional licenses. The licensing approach of eggPlant is not the best."
"End-to-end testing isn't possible for us because of the licensing problems. It's very expensive, so we only have two development/execution licenses."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
"It is affordable as compared to similar SaaS solutions."
"I used the product for free."
"LambdaTest is paid per execution."
"From the customer side, LambdaTest is cheaper for big company usage and works fine as other similar applications."
"This is an affordable product."
"LambdaTest is priced well, which is why we migrated to it."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
