Room For Improvement

ReadyAPI Test needs better integration, support, documentation, performance, customization, and training, along with extended trials and improved stability.
Worksoft Certify requires enhancements in UI, API integration, process simplicity, performance, support, and CI/CD tool integration clarity.
Focusing more on AI and its integration with Worksoft would really help enhance our processes.
Project Manager at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
There are a few areas where I experience limitations in day-to-day usage. This includes UI responsiveness when working with large projects, the effort required to stabilize object identification in dynamic web and Fiori applications, limited flexibility in reporting customization, and there is more room for improvement in API automation testing.
Consultant at Atos syntel
They need to keep working on the mobile interface, the API part, and they need to improve more on web applications.
Automation Architect at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

ReadyAPI Test's high pricing and licensing issues lead users to suggest bundling and discounts for better affordability and clarity.
Worksoft Certify offers flexible licensing with competitive pricing, ideal for large enterprises, but may be costly for smaller organizations.
As it is a quality tool, the price is slightly higher, but that is acceptable compared to other tools, especially considering the ROI.
Project Manager at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
I would rate the pricing for Worksoft Certify as moderate and competitive, and I do not mark it as high.
Principal Consultant at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
compared to open source or lighter automation tools, the licensing cost is higher, which means organizations usually adopt it when they have a large-scale SAP landscape and need robust enterprise-level automation capabilities.

Teams who are planning for automation and are still in manual testing can use Worksoft Certify, and significant time and resources will be reduced.

I believe it will reduce cycle time; we can save 30 to 40%, even 40 to 60% regression cycle time, with innovations we have implemented with Worksoft Certify.

Featured Reviews

Luis Sanchez - PeerSpot reviewer
Senior Quality Assurance Test Engineer at Dormakaba
Helps in data, regression, performance, security, and functional testing
ReadyAPI Test needs to improve its reporting. While reports provide essential information when issues arise, or tests fail, having more graphical representations directly within the reports would be beneficial. It needs to improve stability and scalability as well. The tool's support is slow, and takes months to reach a solution.
Muddisetty Arun Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
WorkSoft Certified Automation Engineer at Qualesce
Automation has delivered strong ROI with AI-driven test prioritization and parallel reporting
The best feature of Worksoft Certify is the automatic report generation. Unlike traditional tools like Selenium or Java-based frameworks where reporting often requires custom coding, Certify handles this natively. We are currently utilizing the 14.5 version, which has modernized these capabilities, though we frequently manage backward compatibility for clients still running on the 12.x version series.
