Kevin Copple - PeerSpot reviewer
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.

Practice Specialist at a government with 1-10 employees
Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature of UFT by far is its compatibility with a large variety of products, tools and technologies. It is currently a challenge to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully automate tests for so many projects and environments."
"Supports desktop, web and mobile product automation."
"It is a stable solution."
"Micro Focus' Unified Functional Testing tool is shaping up to return as a major contender in the test automation field."
"The most valuable features for us are the GUI, the easy identification of objects, and folder structure creation."
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier."
"UFT is easy to use so the QA team is not required to have much programming skills."
"The initial setup is not complex."
"It's user-friendly and offers valuable features for testing, making it a reliable tool."
"Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!"
"LambdaTest has made our testing process less tedious with automated parallel testing."
"It’s good to see, now that we are using LambdaTest, we can run multiple tests on multiple VMs, saving us hours of testing time and the maintenance cost of local infrastructure."
"Without a doubt, LambdaTest is one of the big reasons behind our faster deployment and better team collaboration."
"LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"LambdaTest has helped me gain more customers."
"HyperExecute adds significant speed to execution, enhancing the overall testing process."
 

Cons

"The problem with the solution is that you need to have highly specialized skills in order to make the scripts."
"The solution works for the most part, but the IDE is horrible (although I hear version 12 has a revamped IDE and is much better) and as a result of VBScript being the language, there is no stack trace information available so debugging some errors is not an easy task."
"The amount of space it utilizes on the client side is quite excessive."
"Cost is one area where there is room for improvement."
"We would like to see smart identification (captures a unique object during testing) work more reliably."
"Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification."
"The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."
"Technical support could be improved."
"The tool can improve its testing speed. Changing or switching to another mobile phone can be very slow on a real device."
"It would be much easier for us to read the test if they provided dashboard analytics."
"The analytics over the automation dashboard can be more intuitive."
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"We get logged out of the devices if there is some inactivity."
"The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 tool's price is high."
"It's an expensive solution."
"We have ALM licensing, and the tool is free of cost."
"Compared to other tools in the market, UFT One is very competitive. The recent Covid pandemic situation also hit customer budgets significantly, so Micro Focus offered some discounted prices, which is definitely competitive."
"Its price is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"It's a yearly subscription. There are no additional costs to the standard subscription."
"The price is reasonable."
"The tool is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
"It is 60% cheaper and there is no fuss in maintaining the lab, so we have more time to do the testing."
"It is free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"This is an affordable product."
"From the customer side, LambdaTest is cheaper for big company usage and works fine as other similar applications."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
