"The most valuable features of Katalon Studio are its user-friendliness and the AI smart healing capabilities."
"The most valuable feature of Katalon Studio is visual testing. It compares the look and feel of an application which is useful."
"Video capture on failure is a must have. A picture is worth a thousand words. A video is worth a thousand pictures (literally)."
"Smart Wait and XPath healing are valuable features."
"The solution has some good scanning features."
"One good feature is SoapUI's URL check, which allows you to check among the applications. I'm not just talking about the ones for Android. It has all kinds of multi-world tests that are really helpful."
"The Pro and free version of SoapUI Pro has good technical support."
"The tool’s scalability is very good."
"The solution offers excellent integration capabilities."
"The most valuable features are that it is user-friendly, it's easy to use and easy to teach to others."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"We used to write our own solutions, from small scripts to task web services, so this saves us thousands of hours."
"There could potentially be more reporting within the solution. We need more issue reports, for example."
"It would be helpful if they can integrate a feature for performance testing."
"They need to work on documentation to make it more centralized and easier to find what you are looking for."
"Object Spy is brittle. When I try to capture objects, I have to proceed multiple times before it works."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"The price of the solution is a bit high. It's one of the reasons we decided not to continue using the product."
"The free version of the solution is not user friendly at all."
"We tried automation but it's not easy to integrate with the synching and some of the mission tools that we use for automated testing of APIs."
"SoapUI Pro is a little heavy due to the number of features. Previously it was not that heavy. Now the tool is too heavy, they should work on fixing this issue because until your system has lots of resources, you won't be able to use it seamlessly. The performance of the application itself could improve."
"If the load and bare minimum could be defined, I would give this solution a higher rating."
"SoapUI would benefit from some more customization abilities. It's a good interface, but it would be nice if they added the ability to build custom dashboards where the user can do their own bar graphs and pie charts."
"The UI should be improved."
"I find that I'm fighting with the opportunities to order requests."
"The documentation needs to be improved because the interface is not easy for a first-time user."
"Could integrate the graphing module for load testing."
