Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Our first automation removed manual work from employees, so they are now able to more quickly product quality work."
"This solution is easy to use and understand, even for a non-technical person."
"We have seen AA bringing immense value to the clients once operational. Bot deployment is easy and controlling Access is easy with RBAC With Recent additions. User groups and user management is on par with tools like Blue Prism & UiPath."
"We've saved a lot of time. How much time we save depends on the process. It's likely at least 50%. Sometimes, it's up to 70%."
"I consider the verification station very useful because it allows you to quickly check if the data extracted are correct or if you need to change the process."
"Object Cloning is the most valuable feature I have found for automating a website or a process that includes multiple mouse clicks."
"IQ Bot is one of the most valuable features because it helps in processing different formats from different vendors."
"IQ Bot is something which is going to disrupt the market in the future. We... are particularly impressed with the evolution of IQ Bot and the kind of disruption it is bringing to the OCR space."
"The most valuable features are ExpectedConditions, actions, assertions, verifications, flexible rates, and third-party integrations."
"It has helped to complete tests in less time, which would not be possible relying on manual testing only."
"Selenium HQ lets you create your customized functions with whatever language you want to use, like Python, Java, .NET, etc. You can integrate with Selenium and write."
"The most valuable feature of Selenium is how easy it is to automate."
"I like that it is a robust and free open source. There is a lot of community support available, and there are a lot of developers using them. There's good community support."
"Has a good Workday application that enables us to handle some of the custom controls."
"The solution is very easy to implement."
"The most valuable feature is the Selenium grid, which allows us to run tests in parallel."
"We have been looking at processes which can easily transition into a large scale environment, where you can have cloud or hybrid model. However, being a bank, some of our processes are critical and we would like to hold those on-premise. This limits us with our usage of Automation Anywhere."
"There is an issue with the object cloning in Excel. OCR is also not that stable. Image recognition works fine, but not all the time."
"From the IQ Bot perspective, frankly speaking, they still have to improve a lot... My expectation from a straight, technical, architectural point of view was that I would be able to create my own algorithm and integrate it. But with IQ Bot, I am not able to integrate anything..."
"They should do more on the cognitive side. If they can keep adding more features, that would be their greatest advantage."
"I would like to see a lot around API integration going forward, like the ability for other systems to talk to the AI better by opening it up. I would like to see more chatbots or anything in the journey of making it truly immersive for human workers working with these bots."
"I would like a better code migration solution, because this is something that we do a lot."
"Though the courses in the certification's learning hub are great and awesome, there is some more space for adding more explained contents."
"Automation Anywhere can be improved with respect to the user-friendliness of the interface because most of the competitors are now using a flowchart-like structure, thus making it easy for anyone to learn and study it."
"It would be awesome if there was a standalone implementation of Selenium for non-developer users."
"The installation could be simplified, it is a bit difficult to install."
"Whenever an object is changed or something is changed in the UI, then we have to refactor the code."
"The drawback is the solution is not easy to learn."
"The initial setup of Selenium HQ is difficult in many areas, such as the framework."
"I would like to see automatic logs generated."
"Selenium HQ doesn't have any self-healing capabilities."
