Sr. Quality Assurance Project Manager at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees
Has supported faster test execution and increased flexibility while offering room to improve support responsiveness
Reducing the levels of support is something they could continue to improve. They tend to have an entry-level person that may not be as familiar with the product that fields the calls, which creates another day of delay to get to the level that's needed. This is a common practice across most companies where you call, you get the entry-level person, and then they work their way up to help screen calls so that they are more focused.

Testing automation solution that is scriptless and is competitively priced compared to other solutions
The best feature of this solution is the fact that it offers scriptless automation. You don't need to know how to code or program to use it. Within four weeks, my team was up and running. This was the shortest possible ramp-up that we completed in my entire career The integrations for this…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution."
"It's allowed business analysts to work with automation scripts without requiring them to have programming knowledge."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"If you're a company that is working with any legacy systems, and you need automation with both web-based applications and terminal-based applications, the solution would be a good thing to use."
"The solution is easy to integrate with other platforms."
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications."
"Supports desktop, web and mobile product automation."
"UFT is easy to use for functional testing, so for me it’s very important that it can travel across a large range of technologies."
"The Qualitia technical support group is the best part of Qualitia."
"Qualitia is a complete test automation tool where you can configure multiple test cases at once."
"The best feature of this solution is the fact that it offers scriptless automation. You don't need to know how to code or program to use it."
 

Cons

"I’d like to see them improve the number of objects recognized without customization, similar to TestComplete by SmartBear."
"Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory. On this note, if you are running UFT on a virtual server I would add more RAM memory than the minimum requirements especially when using multiple add-ins. HP is pretty good about coming out with new patches to fix known issues and it pays for the user to check for new patches and updates on a regular basis."
"They should include AI-based testing features."
"I would like to see more integration with LeanFT and use UFT for continuous integration. It's still a closed product."
"I would like a version that works quicker. Also, a lot of people can't afford it because it's expensive."
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this."
"It needs better compatibility with Chrome and Safari, which would lead to this being a better product."
"Sometimes you need a little bit more, but then HP help us to find it as they're knowledgeable troubleshooters."
"Licensing and missing import/export functionality was a problem."
"The integrations for this solutions could be improved, specifically for Slack."
"When using team city to run offline packages, Press Keys do not work, thus giving errors."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It's an expensive solution."
"It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
"The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
"OpenText UFT One is a very expensive solution."
"We have ALM licensing, and the tool is free of cost."
"It's a yearly subscription. There are no additional costs to the standard subscription."
"There are no additional costs involved apart from the standard license."
"Pricing is on a higher end but the competition was even more expensive. With this considered, it is a competitive solution."
