AK
DevOps Engineer at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
Shared change lists are helpful, but poor scalability leads to problems with instability
The biggest problems with this solution have to do with scale. If the load is high then your request is put on hold for a second, and then you have to handle it. If you make a lot of requests then it is your problem. It would be very helpful if a queue was implemented to handle, for example, 100 requests at the same time. Any additional request would be put on hold and made to wait for a few seconds. Once the network and infrastructure are loaded to handle the next request, it would proceed.
AS
QA engineer at Siznam and Co
Provides real-time application monitoring, but the technical support services need improvement
They could improve the platform's customer support services. Many users, including myself, have experienced significant delays in response times and unsatisfactory resolutions when reaching out for assistance. The support team often provides generic recommendations that do not address the specific issues raised, leading to prolonged downtime. Additionally, there needs to be more proactive communication and follow-up on reported problems. Another area for improvement is keeping pace with updates to the latest libraries and technologies. For example, Sauce Labs' proprietary driver and Saucectl need to be updated more frequently to support the latest versions of popular testing frameworks like Playwright. This lag in compatibility means that users may miss out on critical features and improvements available in newer versions, necessitating workarounds or compromises in their testing workflows.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the option to pull changes from others or make local changes in your own change list."
"The most valuable feature is the option to pull changes from others or make local changes in your own change list."
"Running tests in parallel on Sauce Labs definitely saves time and effort."
"Allows us to do JIRA Cloud and BambooHR Integration."
"It offers the single best solution for integrating deep automated browser testing in a CI/CD pipeline."
"Testing is very fast with this tool."
"Sauce Labs has helped us to resolve the issue of testing our automation cases across a big combination of OS versions and different screen sizes using real hardware."
"Cross-platform mobile testing. Before using Sauce Labs, I would have to setup a Selenium Grid cluster and install all versions of mobile simulators/emulators in order to test apps on different platforms."
"No longer have to manage VMs for testing."
"Parallel test execution helped us a lot to reduce test time."
 

Cons

"Generally, we can say that we have not had an excellent experience with Perforce."
"It would be very helpful if a queue was implemented to handle, for example, 100 requests at the same time."
"We need more physical devices."
"There have been various times throughout the last month or so where the service has gone down during business hours."
"Start execution time as each time a set of tests start, it will launch a new VM so it takes a bit of time."
"With the desktop browser, we can inspect any screen with the web developer option, but they should provide something for mobiles so that we can quickly inspect elements on the device. To write the Selenium scripts, we require web locators. We have to capture them from the local and execute the script on Sauce Labs. If Sauce Labs can provide a solution where we can inspect any of the mobile devices online, it will be very helpful for us."
"We have had some issues with the Sauce Connect Proxy on our Jenkins servers failing to start, which makes the optimal CI/CD pipeline come to a halt."
"One of the challenging areas for us is the reporting and the matrix. It should be based on roles, but right now it is only available for the admin role. The admin role can really do a lot of stuff, but our infrastructure team, which holds the admin role, is not ready to hand it over to us on the testing team. If Sauce Labs had permissions associated with roles, where this role could do this activity and that role could do that activity, it would be easier for us."
"Progress towards reducing application testing time can be made."
"Unable to segregate reports for tests that are currently being developed, and might not be returning useful results."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We did initially go with Sauce Labs because of the pricing and integration."
"When you reach the Enterprise licensing tier, base level being with 10 concurrent test sessions, pricing is essentially per-unit-of-concurrency thereafter with a relatively linear increase and not much benefit for "bulk"."
"Trial the product and see if it suits your needs."
"Their pricing is incredibly competitive."
"They could improve on the pricing because it seems pretty expensive. I'm sure it's justified, but it's expensive."
"We pay for a specific number of VMs."
"The pricing is definitely on the higher end, and there are other options that are more cost-effective."
"It could be less like pay-per-use with a lower rate."
