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.

Real-time monitoring and dashboards with cost-saving licensing
SysTrack requires significant improvements. Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display. For instance, a machine's last reboot might be inaccurately shown as seven days ago instead of two days ago. Additionally, real-time data syncing issues lead to delays, requiring this to be addressed, as data might be several hours old.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"DAI's newest release allows us to test via scripts rather than models, because we have done 95 percent of our development in functional, not through modeling. I am really happy that then we can use the controller to run scripts rather than having to translate things to models. There are lots of options."
"The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."
"Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level."
"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 are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual."
"The solution is a stable one."
"Its scalability is good. It is useful for desktop applications, and it also uses OCR and does image recognition."
"The Resolve part is valuable. It allows the service desk team to perform a couple of fixes or things to mitigate an incident before it's escalated to L2 or L3. It's a cool feature. If you have the sensor activity for Outlook and something has gone wrong, even the service desk can take those steps."
"When you search for a machine or a user, the way we get the information is very helpful. The GUI provides us with all the information about that machine that a user is accessing. It tells us about the CPU, memory, etc. The GUI and the details provided are very helpful."
"It is a stable product. I would rate its stability a nine out of ten."
"The visualizer feature provides end-to-end analysis on all the machines."
"We are using the SysTrack 'Prevent' module, which shows real-time discrepancies in the infrastructure."
"SysTrack monitors user experience and represents it in the form of a composite score. The scores are placed on a timeline, so you can see how it has gotten better or worse compared to two weeks ago. It gives you a score at the personal, unit, and organizational levels. For example, the score for my entire organization in SysTrack is 77. It's also effective for monitoring user experience and resources in a VDI environment."
"I am impressed with the huge amount of information that you can get from the infrastructure."
"From a telemetry data standpoint, it's a perfect tool."
 

Cons

"The execution times are a little slower, and the two-system architecture that we currently follow could be better replaced with a one-system architecture."
"Since there are very few customers in the Indian region, there is no training available, and it's challenging to find skilled talent."
"If one area could be improved, it would be some of their documentation. In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis. Other than that, I haven't really found any issues or problems."
"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution."
"I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place."
"It has low productivity."
"SysTrack requires significant improvements. Sometimes clients experience broken links where the service doesn't run on the user's machine, causing outdated data to display."
"Certain features haven't been tested sufficiently and don't work well."
"The interface needs to be improved because it looks ancient. If you have been working in IT for a long time, over 20 years, you might remember products from the start of your career that look almost identical to the way SysTrack looks now. The user interface is not user-friendly. When you first see the solution, it overwhelms you with everything. It's not easy to use, and it's not that intuitive."
"If they can integrate some kind of remote administration tool, like the LogMeIn tool, it would be helpful for the DDS team members, as well as for the global team members. We need not search for an additional tool for troubleshooting purposes. Currently, we are using one tool for governance and then we have SysTrack for monitoring the endpoints. There are two tools, and we are spending money on both."
"Lacks flexibility with regard to licensing."
"The solution lacks AI in its analysis module."
"One thing from a layman's standpoint, the report should be very clear."
"The tool needs to improve the integration with third-party providers like Cisco products."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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."
"Eggplant Test is a very expensive solution."
"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."
"It probably has a yearly license."
"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 on a per-device basis. It is not on a per-user basis. I was not much engaged in the licensing piece. I was only a part of the conversation about how we are going to scale up or down, but its price, for sure, is competitive."
"It is somewhat expensive."
"If you compare cloud solutions to SysTrack, which is on-premises, then SysTrack is cheaper. If you compare the cost of SysTrack with that of other similar solutions, the cost is similar. For each master server, there's a license. In terms of end user devices, the licenses are sold in multiplications of 10. That's one upfront cost. Once you procure the license, you can use the software for as long as you like. The maintenance is sold on an annual basis. Additional costs are related to hosting and include a SQL server license and Windows server licenses."
"I would rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
"Cost-wise, SysTrack has a higher rate than other products, such as Nanoheal, but the features that SysTrack has aren't there in any other product available in the market."
