Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Game testing and the API for apps are good.""Ability to use different frameworks."

More Bitbar Pros →

"When I started to work on testing automation, I was very excited about how easy it is to run tests on different browsers. It was just a matter of configuration.""This solution helps lower the overhead cost associated with buying multiple devices.""It has increased the speed of our regression testing.""The ability to replay sessions is valuable for tracking down issues.""At the moment, all our deploys depend on results of automation. If the tests are failing, then we know that something is wrong at the early stages of development.""The ability to choose from many devices is the best feature.""CBT has made it easier to troubleshoot issues across devices when we do not have actual access to those specific devices. I even opt for CBT sometimes when we do have access to the device just because it is easier.""The screen shot portal is essential for an easy way to run tests across hundreds of browsers and retrieve screenshots which then indicate success or failure."

More CrossBrowserTesting Pros →

Cons
"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved.""Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."

More Bitbar Cons →

"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up.""The five minute timeouts can cause irritation if you have just popped away to consult some supporting documentation.""The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved.""I have experienced some lagging issues, and it does not seem like all of the testing environments are configured the same.""Being able to test on real devices via the virtual connection is wonderful, but it can cause some lag and load time issues while testing.""Sometimes the testing is slow.""Sometimes, some of their instances fail, particularly in older versions of browsers.""It would be useful if we can run the live-testing test cases on multiple platforms at the same time, instead of waiting for one session to finish."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."
  • More Bitbar Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "The lowest price point is very reasonable. It is also useful if only one person in the company needs to check on the browser display."
  • "A few intermediary pricing options for small QA teams would be nice, e.g., unlimited screenshots, "as you need it" parallel tests, etc."
  • "CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."
  • "It is worth the pricing as the product is supported on multiple platforms and browsers."
  • "SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
