Experienced ease in automation with strong support while seeking improvements in low-code options
OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web offers flexibility of deployment, from on-premises to UFT One which is on the cloud. They provide capability for immediate deployment, and assets can be migrated easily. They include enablers specifically for quick migration of test assets. While I have not personally been involved in these migrations, I have observed some clients using it directly while others make a complete shift from OpenText to Tricentis platforms. There have not been many clients moving from OpenText platforms from on-premises to cloud because most shifts have been toward different product categories such as Tricentis altogether.

Low-code testing platform used for API and visual testing as well as AI-based scriptless automation
This solution is very easy to use and this is one of the solutions best features. It has integrated seamlessly with our framework and provides very wide coverage. It offers very comprehensive reporting and allows us to drill down to the various levels of the automation and respective application performance. What TestObject provides is not available from other service providers. The kind of detailed reporting provided is very good.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This helped my prior organization immensely due to the ability to remotely manipulate devices, even by offshore vendors."
"Using the existing enterprise tools, like UFT, or even if you want to go open source, you can use them and it's a real user-functional performance, we are able to achieve that."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization."
"We escalate tickets to HPE, and we don't have problems."
"We evaluated other mobile testing solutions and found this to be superior to all of them."
"ROI is definitely present with OpenText Functional Testing Lab for Mobile and Web; these are very capable tools, and there is no reason ROI should be a challenge."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization."
"The product is easy to use."
"TestObject have released new capabilities that have helped us to provide a comprehensive solution to our end customers. Customers do not need to provide upfront investment in mobile devices as these are pretty costly."
"This solution is very easy to use and this is one of the solutions best features."
 

Cons

"Deployment was an issue. Each time we set it up and deployed, it failed and we had to relaunch it again."
"I would like to see more integration with automation tools."
"They should introduce a pay-per-use subscription model."
"Digital Lab is a pretty solid product with areas that could be continuously improved on."
"I think the biggest issues that I've seen, and this is a personal view of mine, is that most of the HPE products have a common look and feel to them."
"The documentation and user interface both need improvement."
"We like to host the tools centrally. We would need them to be multi-tenants, so different projects could log on and have their own set of devices and their own set of apps, and they wouldn't see data from other projects that are using it."
"We need to scale devices easily. Some customers would like to loop in AWS or other cloud providers to check if their devices have the cloud factor. OpenText UFT Digital Lab needs to improve it."
"In a future release, we would like to have the ARML model included."
"In a future release, we would like to have the ARML model included."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product could be more affordable."
"OpenText UFT Digital Lab's pricing is average, and I rate it a five out of ten."
"While the pricing may seem relatively high, when compared to competitors, it often falls in line or can even be more cost-effective."
