Good data security, allowing local installations to prevent data from going to the internet
There were a lot of issues we faced. One notable improvement would be better API integration within the tool itself, as we still rely on external tools like Postman. Additionally, expanding language support beyond C#, Java, and JavaScript to include Python would be beneficial. An AI feature that automatically detects automation object properties and suggests actions would be a great addition. So, in future releases, AI solutions for automated property identification would be helpful.

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 solution is intuitive and pretty self-sustaining. You don't need a lot of help with it in terms of setup or assistance."
"Customer Service: Ranorex’s customer service is outstanding."
"The solution is intuitive and pretty self-sustaining, and you don't need a lot of help with it in terms of setup or assistance."
"Object identification is good."
"I'm from a UFT background, so Ranorex Studio has a similar feel in terms of how it handles objects. It just felt familiar even though I'd never seen it before. However, it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of UFT, but it's a pretty good start, and it's cost-effective."
"Ranorex support is speedy, reliable and very friendly."
"Ranorex is a great tool to learn automation with pleasure."
"This is way better than QTP and Silktest when compared to in following aspects: User friendly UI, Cost of Tool, Continuous Integration, Instant release of updated add-on as per latest technologies and browsers, Full fledged trial product for exact 30 days."
"The support docs are precise and you can get started with them easily."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"Stability-wise, I have not experienced any downtime or other performance issues."
"LambdaTest has helped me gain more customers."
"The slow nature of a cloud platform was compensated with parallel testing, and now we are able to finish our testing job faster than it was before COVID."
"LambdaTest Selenium Grid has helped us radically reduce the manual testing effort and ensure browser compatibility."
"Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs."
"LambdaTest is brilliant."
 

Cons

"The object detection functionality needs to be improved."
"The solution has good quality and functionality but I would not recommend it because of its unfamiliarity in the market."
"Ranorex is used in Windows while other solutions, for example, Katalon Studio, are cross-platform. (But in my opinion, overall, Ranorex is better)."
"It's usually any minor firewall change or anything changed in our security system that seems to throw me off for a few days where I have to troubleshoot it and figure out why it's not working."
"While the product does well with its primary job of testing, when we are using Ranorex it would be nice if it would report directly in HTML."
"Part of the challenge is that Ranorex's support is over in Europe, so we can't get responses on the same day. If we had support in the United States that was a bit more timely, that would be helpful."
"I have proposed few suggestions to them in the product improvement area."
"Any minor change to a repository can result in a version control system nightmare, making it more difficult when working in teams."
"Improvements on a platform need to happen on a timely basis...There should be some new features coming up or some performance improvisation over a period of time."
"The tool can improve its testing speed. Changing or switching to another mobile phone can be very slow on a real device."
"I would like to see all of the features available in the Freemium plan so that I can test them."
"The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers."
"The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues."
"If possible to simulate the finger pinch, it would make it more realistic."
"Performing automation testing from UI is a little slow and could be improved."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
