Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting.""Object Repository Technology, which is a good mean to identify graphical components of the applications under test.""One advantage of Micro Focus UFT is that it is more compatible with SAP, Desktop ECC SAP, than S/4HANA.""The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner.""Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier.""I like the Help feature in UFT One. For example, if you are navigating a particular window, where there are different options. One wouldn’t know the purpose of every option, but there is no need to search because that window contains a Help button. If you click on that Help button, it directly navigates to the respective help needed. VBScript is very easy to understand and easy to prepare scripts with minimal learning curve.""The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great.""Has improved our organization by allowing us to obtain fast, detailed information about the behavior of our products and to supply this to the customer, enabling us to work together without the need for special programming knowledge."

"Postman is useful for API testing.""The developers put the API in a common workspace which is a nice feature. It makes things much easier and faster to start testing.""It helps me to test APIs independently. It also supports hosting.""It is stable and does not lag.""It is easy and simple to use and install. It is compatible with Linux, Mac or Windows.""The most valuable feature of Postman is the large libraries.""In Postman, we have an option to directly import a call, make it a Postman collection, and execute it in a batch. This feature is very useful. It saves a lot of time. The manual effort is also reduced when we can just pick it in a Postman collection and then run and execute it to get the results.""The interface and the different types of API methods you can use are the most valuable aspects of this solution."

Cons
"The solution is expensive.""One area for improvement is its occasional slowness.""The price is very high. They should work to lower the costs for their clients.""Jumping to functions is supported from any Action/BPT Component code, but not from inside a function library where the target function exists in another library file. Workaround: Select search entire project for the function.""The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute.""The product doesn't provide free training for the basic features.""The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded.""It could work with more browsers other than Internet Explorer, and could better handle new things like Ext JS."

"We cannot see transaction times in the product.""I live in Turkey, so for me, the value of dollar currency is high...Postman can change its pricing policy and decrease the prices for Turkey.""Integration of the solution towards Bitbucket, BitHub, and CI pipelines is difficult.""The performance needs to be improved.""I would like to see advanced automation in reference to Postman.""We do the implementation of Postman and give support. We had to use two engineers for the implementation, one senior and one junior for the process.""I was not even aware that it was possible to automate tasks in Postman...Some features related to the automation of tasks need to be added to the solution.""I have display issues in my Windows that need to be fixed."

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."

  • "It is free."
  • "We are currently using the free version, but we have plans to buy a license."
  • "We are using the free version that is available."
  • "Its price is moderate as compared to other competitors. The version that we are using is not open source, so it is not free."
  • "The solution is open-source and free."
  • "I am using the free option."
  • "Postman is a free service."
  • "Unlike APIs, the solution does not require a license."
