Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier.""It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting.""The stop automation is a great feature.""My company has not had an issue with OpenText UFT One since we have been using it for the past three to four years.""This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain.""It offers a wide range of testing.""On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis.""We have used it for the web and Windows-based applications. It is very productive in terms of execution."

"What I like most about UiPath Test Suite is that it's straightforward, and any user who knows how to use the UiPath Studio can learn how to create a test script in as fast as thirty minutes. There's nothing new you must learn to use UiPath Test Suite because it only has three sections: Given, Then, and When.""It is a very scalable product.""UiPath's most valuable features are reusability and low-code aspects. It works across both desktop and web applications.""We also don't develop test robots like typing codes; we program them with drag-and-drop features.""UiPath's tools are generally designed for business users, so they can be as simple or as complex as needed.""The detailed logging is invaluable.""Being able to use regular expressions, activities, and attributes is valuable.""We are finding bugs and defects much faster."

Cons
"We'd like it to have less scripting.""The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded.""Jumping to functions is supported from any Action/BPT Component code, but not from inside a function library where the target function exists in another library file. Workaround: Select search entire project for the function.""There is a lot of room for improvement when it comes to friction-free continuous testing across the software life cycle, as a local installation is required to run UFT.""The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute.""They should include AI-based testing features.""The product doesn't provide free training for the basic features.""The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script."

"UiPath’s Test Suite manual testing doesn’t work for our organization based on how the QA Analysts do their manual testing and the artifacts that are needed for deployment.""UiPath needs to improve its Test Manager feature. Defect management and reporting also need improvement.""At FORWARD VI, we see new automations being built around AI and the ability to have developers understand how they can drive some of those AI capabilities with Studio. We are starting to see that. They should also drive that with UiPath Test Suite so that we can not only build that development side faster; we can also develop the tests that go along with it, hopefully automatically.""Orchestrator is not easy to use or understand.""The test manager component could be improved.""We'd like to see the solution integrate with more code or local frameworks.""I don't rate its ability to automate very well.""We have output arguments in the workflow. We can check results only by using those arguments. It would be better to have some more options, such as screen variables. For example, in a workflow, if we want to check if an activity is present inside, we should be able to get the output to UiPath Test Suite through the activity itself. That would be great for testing."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
  • "The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
  • "It's an expensive solution."
  • "For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
  • "The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
  • "The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
  • "The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
  • "The price is one aspect that could be improved."

  • "UiPath Test Suite is a cost-effective solution. Orchestrator is the most expensive UiPath module, costing around $20,000, but you don't need to purchase Orchestrator to use Test Suite. You can buy a nonproductive version that costs about $2,400. It's a better value than other products I've seen."
  • "When we decided to buy the solution three and a half years ago, it was fairly priced."
  • "I don't necessarily have a problem with the pricing of the UiPath Test Suite, especially because we're using the testing bot licenses as opposed to the unattended licensing."
  • "I wasn't involved in the negotiations for the UiPath Test Suite, so I have no information on its pricing."
  • "One robot license costs 1,500 euros."
  • "It represents good value for the investment."
  • "Regarding the pricing model, I believe it would be beneficial to combine it with some of the other platform aspects."
  • "I am not aware of the exact cost. It seems reasonable, but it is an additional cost."
