"The solution is a very expensive tool when compared with other tools."
"It's not that popular on the cloud."

"What is currently missing from this solution is better support for mobile testing."
"SmartBear products generally have a weak link when it comes to integration with other test management tools like Inflectra."
"The code editor, though following eclipse-style, is still a work in progress and gives a very poorly formatted code once viewed via other editing tools."
"This solution could be improved by making it easier to visualize where there is a failure without having to look at it in detail."
"The integration tools could be better."
"Increased performance with less memory and CPU usage."
