We performed a comparison between Katalon Studio and Worksoft Certify based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Automation Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best thing about the solution is that there is a record and playback functionality."
"The functionality of the data is very good. You can upload and disperse data using the solution."
"The tool has a good record and playback feature for functionality, which saves time when creating automated tests."
"I like the feature where you can define a model that represents your website and then reuse the components from the model. It makes creating more test cases easy."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward and easy enough to complete."
"The most valuable feature is that the browser and the API testing is available in a single tool, and I don't have to look at other options."
"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"People who don't have coding knowledge are capable of doing automation with Certify. It reduces coding and scripting dependencies."
"It is a lot easier to maintain test scripts on Worksoft Certify than on other testing tools that we have had in the past."
"The most valuable features of Worksoft Certify are the way we can maintain the processes and sub-processes inside. We can immediately identify and replicate multiple objects in the application without having a major issue with it. We are able to do a lot of operations even with the solution being completely scriptless. That is a large advantage compared with other automation tools."
"The Capture 2.0 feature is good. Our clients like using it. It does not take long to create documentation."
"We are able to automate, not just SAP, but the entire application ecosystem. If you take any company, SAP is the backbone, and if they use SAP ERP, then, there are multiple software applications, where some of them are SAP and some of them are non-SAP applications. Worksoft is one of the tools which can transcend across SAP and non-SAP applications. Non-SAP application include Java or .NET. Worksoft can seamlessly automate these applications."
"The ease of use is superior to anything on the market. It's very easy to integrate. We've been very impressed with the tool. Because we primarily use the configuration with SAP, the integration is pretty seamless. But we have used our own in-house VB app as well, and it's worked very well with that."
"Automation using Worksoft Certify has saved our testing times by 40% to 50%."
"The easy of use and ease of integration of Worksoft Certify are very good."
"Currently, I'm the only one who can use it because I have a Mac. It is giving a hard time to my team members who are on Linux. My team members are using Linux, and Katalon doesn't support Linux very well. It keeps on crashing. It crashes and shuts down almost every time they save their work, so they are not able to use it. It should have good support for Linux. We don't know what the problem is. If the Katalon team can pick up this issue, it will be very helpful."
"Katalon Studio should improve its usability, it still needs some improvement where users can easily use it to build their automation suite. It requires some initial work to set it up. There should be more keywords in the library to limit the coding requirements, this will allow a non-technical person easily start using it, which would be better."
"It would be helpful to have an automatic save feature."
"The integration process with Jira should be enhanced and facilitated."
"One aspect that can be improved is testing for desktop applications. I would like to see them support more technologies in this area."
"Now we are having difficulties in using it and had to limit our automation experts to the features that Katalon allows us to use for free. It was free access and they claimed that it would be free for all time."
"My recently-updated Katalon studio version hangs a lot and is not a stable version."
"The product is comparatively slow."
"It would be great if our business testers could develop their own automated test cases. With every release you do, you have to go back and touch your old test cases and bring them up to speed, or develop new test cases. In the beginning, that is a challenge because you have to have someone who is certified in the tool to help you develop these test cases."
"I am aware that they have some challenges with some of their support resources, especially offshore which is very common. I don't think this is specifically a Worksoft issue. It always seems to be a software issue, and I know that Worksoft is aware of this and they are trying to make some improvements."
"The technical support has been good, but sometimes there are little delays. A lot of times when we need support, it's an emergency situation."
"Pricing is a bit high and we would like to have the availability of a trail environment for beginners and training would be great to have and easier to expand and use by more and more consultants."
"I would like the GUI to be more user-friendly and intuitive. We want to be able to move assets from project to another project without having to be in the same project or the same folder structure."
"The updates for SAP Fiori have been great, where previously we saw a lot of issues. A year ago, it used to fail miserably."
"The definitions for the objects need to be automated. They need to be recognized automatically by Worksoft Certify instead of changing them back and forth manually. This is also something that Worksoft is currently working on."
"Better automation capability would be helpful."
