There is a lot of support available through forums and user groups, which has been sufficient for me.

Scaling with UiPath Test Cloud is supported; they have the infrastructure to scale automation to meet business needs.
Proper knowledge of Orchestrator and CI/CD processes makes the product truly scalable.

Room For Improvement

Postman users seek improved automation, user interface, documentation, SOAP support, and better integrations, emphasizing beginner-friendly features and pricing.
UiPath Test Cloud requires enhancements in mobile automation, integration, usability, pricing, visualization, AI-driven features, and tool compatibility.
This feature would allow the response to be validated in the database as well.
One of the primary challenges with Postman is handling authentication issues, especially relating to tokens and passwords.
Something that could be better is the inclusion of another type of test, for example, end-to-end tests.
If they could add defect management, it could work independently without needing Jira.
UiPath should introduce compatibility so existing processes in Selenium or other tools can work seamlessly with UiPath Test automation.
 

Setup Cost

Postman provides competitive pricing with flexible plans, starting from free to scalable, cost-effective licenses for enterprise needs.
UiPath Test Cloud offers premium features with rigid, costly licensing, yet remains cost-effective compared to consumption-based options.
Postman is open-source, so the cost is minimal compared to commercial platforms.
Postman's pricing model includes a basic free version, which is favorable given the Professional enterprise options offered.
The price is low, making it a reasonable price for the product.
Our customers usually pay around 30K to 35K for five licenses, which is priced per year.
The pricing of UiPath tends to be on the higher side, which can restrict smaller companies from adopting it.
 

Valuable Features

Postman is popular for its user-friendly API testing, powerful automation, integration features, and seamless team collaboration capabilities.
UiPath Test Cloud offers seamless integration, streamlines workflows, enhances productivity, and provides cost-efficiency with its intuitive interface and features.
The desktop version's features like cookie management, environment compatibility, security settings, proxy integration, and data synchronization add significant value.
It is easy to install, as well as to learn, particularly for new users, even if they are not developers.
In Postman, we have collections that contain multiple endpoints that I can test.
The most valuable feature of UiPath Test Cloud that I have found is the TestManager dashboard, which integrates with Jira through Planview Tasktop.
What I really like about UiPath Test Suite is its ability to ensure that any changes made do not affect other functionalities.

Solution simplifies web service testing with impressive speed and accessibility
It is very easy for me to use and I highly prefer it compared to SoapUI and other products for performing its job. It is more handy and faster. It has impacted us very nicely. Postman is used for free by us. I'm not sure if there might be a paid version for multiple users. It is a very good product used for development. It is easy to install, as well as to learn, particularly for new users, even if they are not developers. I taught my business analyst to use it. I just showed them once, and it was easy for them to understand. For example, I gave them the URL and request format and asked them to test independently. They were able to use it on their own and do their testing as well. It was a good experience, especially for generally smart people, like those we usually hire in our company. It is pretty easy to explain, and learning it is not complex.

Can be used by non-developers, and saves us time, but the manual testing needs improvement
UiPath’s Test Suite manual testing doesn’t work for our organization based on how the QA Analysts do their manual testing and the artifacts that are needed for deployment. The QA Manager needs to track which tests have been completed, the success rate, and other relevant information. The ability to have manual tests show up in multiple projects is a requirement that is not easily done in Test Suite. We have submitted the following enhancements request to UiPath and are waiting for them to address these issues before migrating our manual testing to the UiPath Test Suite platform. * Ability to import manual test cases from an Excel Spreadsheet. * Ability to create release folders and have manual tests under the folders (sub-folders are also needed). * Ability to copy tests between projects (manual and automated). * Ability to execute manual test cases in any order and skip tests if needed. * Ability to assign and see who has been assigned to test cases – need to know who created the test case and who executed the test case as they could be different people. * Ability for the QA manager to see which test cases have been run and which haven’t as well as which ones were successful, and which weren’t. * Ability for the QA manager to track defect cycles for a particular release. * Improving Search functionality – must enter the exact test case name in current search functionality. * Ability to extract key data for artifacts for Release Management or Audit* Test Set or Individual Cases, * Include Test Results (passed / failed), * Include how many iterations a test case went through until it passed.
