Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The ability to reuse test cases already used across projects is the most valuable feature of this solution. We don't need to create new ones.""The user-friendly features are the most valuable. For example, migration of requirements and migration of test cases and the creation of traceability. You have various reports that you need. The plug-ins that are available to connect with the other tools.""Inflectra SpiraTest has a lot of functionality, which is good.""The features of this product most valuable to me were the test case management and the visual status, by which it was displayed.""We were able to add a step-by-step procedure for someone to follow to assist in testing.""I found Inflectra SpiraTest intuitive enough. It's also easy to learn, so this is what I like about it.""The reporting functionality helps vendors and technical resources identify bugs and issues that need to be addressed. The simple dashboard-style home page makes training end-user testers simple and straightforward. The actual testing UI is VERY straightforward and very intuitive for the end-users that test the system since very often we pull from business and operational users to help test new systems."

"The entire framework is very useful. It's easily integrable with Excel.""The most valuable feature for me is that it works on multiple platforms and technologies.""Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator.""Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes.""The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner.""It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people.""It's simple to set up.""UFT is very strongly built. It's widely used, so there's a lot of support."

Cons
"It should develop integration with JIRA. We have some complexities which caused us not to decide to integrate it with our JIRA, like synchronous data.""Two areas that can stand improvement: integration with third party products and making it more intuitive.""The folder organization in Inflectra SpiraTest could be better, though I cannot comment whether that is structure-related. Most of what I need would probably be in the tool, but as a test manager, I need to be able to create dashboards and reports easily.""Being able to add scripting for testing can and does save a lot of time. When you are able to just ‘run’ a test case rather than manually add it and run it.""The UI for managing test cases, test sets, test runs could be a little more integrated, currently, these feel disjointed at times and confusing. Also, the test steps page needs to display the test steps closer to the top of the UI so as to not have to scroll down to find.""Migrating is not very easy. It depends on the organization, how efficient and effective the decision-making process is. The plug-ins should be easier and more integrated rather than the user trying to integrate the tools which are more popular, like Jira et al.""The user interface is slightly complicated and not very consistent. It could be more user friendly."

More Inflectra SpiraTest Cons →

"We have had some issues with stability, where it crashes sometimes.""The product wasn't easy for developers to learn and pick up in the area revolving around scripting for automation, and there was a lot of resistance from developers, causing my company to rely on specialist resources.""The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded.""Micro Focus UFT One could improve by having more maintenance. Every time when we run the solution and develop something, the next time when we run it it doesn't recognize the object. I have to redesign the object again and then run the solution. It's really a headache, it's not consistent.""We'd like it to have less scripting.""The artificial intelligence functionality is applicable only on the web, and it should be expanded to cover non-web applications as well.""They need to reduce the licensing cost. There's pushback from customers because of the cost.""It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing was excellent. I would recommend the enterprise solution."
  • "I Googled the pricing for Inflectra SpiraTest, and it's about $4,000 annually."
  • More Inflectra SpiraTest Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
  • "The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
  • "It's an expensive solution."
  • "For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
  • "The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
  • "The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
  • "The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
  • "The price is one aspect that could be improved."
