Price-wise, Katalon Studio is a costly product. Considering what the solution provides its users with, I can say that price-wise, Katalon Studio is an okay product.

The tool's pricing is cheap compared to other alternatives. I would rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten.

The price of Katalon Studio is reasonable. They recently had a price increase that might impact new subscribers. We are using a business license.

We chose this solution because of cost. It is an affordable solution. It was less than a thousand euros for a server which supports three live servers for a CI/CD pipeline. They do not charge for a license per developer.

Katalon Studio is less expensive than other solutions, such as Micro Focus UFT. The price of the solution is approximately $1,900 for the licenses, we have 30 licenses. The cost is for the license and for the support. We are billed annually. There are not any extra features or costs for anything else, it is open source.

The cost is on the high side and it would be helpful if there were two packages available with a distinction made between the standard features most companies are looking for at a cheaper cost and a second, more expensive license option for those wanting additional features such as auto exports. If Katalon were to do this, I think more of the smaller companies would be interested in using the solution.

In terms of pricing, Katalon, Selenium, and Cypress all represent a similar level of investment. The software for these tools are either true open source or almost open source (because they charge a small fee), so pricing is a neutral point for me. The price isn't a problem. It's all about compatibility with the application undergoing testing. If you took twice as many hours to finish something that in another tool you could finish in half the time, then it represents an unnecessary cost. What you don't spend in license fees, you may be spending in the service itself, or in people to support it. These are costs that may become evident later.

I haven't precisely checked the business model behind Katalon, and I would like to understand that as well, because most of our clients ask for licenses and prices, and we don't know. From my understanding, the basic version is free, but it would be interesting to understand the full package.

Its pricing is quite reasonable. If you require their help in getting started, then there is a professional services fee on top of the product license cost.

We are using the free version. We plan on getting a paid version because there is a limitation in terms of the number of users. We want to maximize it.

It's my understanding that the pricing could be improved upon. I cannot recall the exact pricing. I cannot speak to the cost or licensing terms. We're just basically maintaining the solution for our clients.

Katalon Studio was offered free at first, and we could easily use it. After two years, some of the features were limited and we had to pay. Because of the sanctions, we had difficulties in being able to use a solution and having to pay for it. Our economic situation is not good and has created many difficulties. The price is reasonable, but our sanctions do not allow us to pay for any international tools. We have to find other companies to pay for us, without it costing us any money. The price is not high, it's good.

There is a free version of the solution. That said, companies should be aware that if they do go ahead with the freemium version, the effort required to do the work is extremely high and might negate the positive aspect of having a "free" solution.

This product is freeware, so there is no charge for using it. There is a paid service available that offers a cloud database where you can store your test cases, pull your test executions, get reports, etc. We're not currently using this service so I cannot comment on it.
