We performed a comparison between OpenText UFT One and Visual Studio Test Professional based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Functional Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."With certainty, the best feature of UFT is its compatibility with so many products, tools and technologies. It is a challenge currently to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully work for so many projects and environments. For example, UFT supports GUI testing of Oracle, PeopleSoft, PowerBuilder, SAP (v7.20), Siebel, Stingray, Terminal Emulator, Putty, and Windows Objects (particularly Dialog Boxes). Furthermore, UFT has the built-in functionality to import Excel input files."
"The production and the efficiency of making your test cases can be very high."
"The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great."
"I like the Help feature in UFT One. For example, if you are navigating a particular window, where there are different options. One wouldn’t know the purpose of every option, but there is no need to search because that window contains a Help button. If you click on that Help button, it directly navigates to the respective help needed. VBScript is very easy to understand and easy to prepare scripts with minimal learning curve."
"It is a stable solution."
"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."
"The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."
"UFT has improved our ability to regression test."
"The solution is very useful for compiling existing projects and developing new projects."
"Visual Studio is an exemplary integrated development environment that stands out due to its exceptional features. It allows for the seamless selection of the appropriate programming language for the specific development tasks at hand. This facilitates a swift and effortless transition between languages, providing a highly efficient development experience."
"The stability has always been very good."
"The setup is easy and straightforward."
"Visual Studio is highly powerful. It's probably the best software development tool on the market."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a user-friendly solution."

"One area for improvement is its occasional slowness."
"The solution does not have proper scripting."
"Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers."
"You have to deal with issues such as the firewall and how can the tool talk with the application, i.e., if the application is on a company network and so on. That, of course, is important to figure out."
"The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded."
"The solution is expensive."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"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 solution can improve the startup time."
"It would be great to support other languages and applications, and that is one of the things we can improve."
"The product must provide more automation."
"There are too many features with the product and I would like there to be less."

"We would like to be able to easily integrate this solution with our continuous integration tools, such as Jenkins."
"Visual Studio Test Professional needs to improve its scalability."
"Visual Studio Test Professional is a little pricey."
