"This solution is SaaS based so we can utilize cloud technology, which is less time consuming and saves a lot of of money."

"Keeping up with DevOps, thus the best feature of StormRunner is that we don't have to build and maintain infrastructure anymore."
"It's a fast product, so you don't have much trouble in terms of maintenance overhead. You don't want to just look into configuring load generators, look for upgrades, and end up having that take up a lot of your time. With this solution, you just log in and you start using it. This means that there is a huge benefit in terms of the overhead of maintaining the infrastructure and the maintenance effort."
"To me, what stands out the most about Tricentis Tosca is that even if I'm not a technical tester, I could pick up on how to use it very quickly because of the mechanisms of the tool, for example, its scanning mechanism. I'm not so technical, but I'm able to maneuver through Tricentis Tosca and derive capability. It's a user-friendly tool. It's not very complex."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are all the test automation functionality. It is a full-scale automation tool."
"Compared to other tools we have been looking at, you don't have to be a programmer to operate it, though it helps. It also a product that can be used by business people."
"It's stable and reliable."
"We are satisfied with the support of Tricentis."
"The product enables codeless automation."
"Object Identification Wizard."
"Image recognition: It has allowed us to automate a GUI section of our product which involves drawing different topologies."
"The support team provides delayed responses."
"We did have some challenges with the initial implementation."
"Sometimes, you are utilizing one of the low generators, then all of a sudden if you discontinue from one project, it actually deletes the entire low generator."
"Scriptless automation is an area that can be improved."
"We encounter hurdles while running the professional version for on-premise setup."
"We are trying to put it into a complete CI/CD pipeline, but there are still some challenges when you try to run it through different protocols. The challenges are around how you can containerize applications. There are some limitations to some protocols, such as desktop. And when it comes to database testing, there are some things that we can't do through CI/CD."
"CI/CD integration could be a little bit better. When there's a test and if you see that there are high response times in the test itself, it would be great to be able to send an alert. It would give a heads-up to the architect community or ops community."
"There is a steep learning curve for the product, too."
"Very difficult to get information about licensing costs."
"The tool lags in client-based applications. We have also encountered issues with the features in integrations."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."
"Primarily I'm dealing with customers looking for a cheap solution, and they are willing to try open-source automation solutions. So from this perspective, the price of Tosca is not as competitive."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"I would like to be able to manage different projects in one repository or have better data exchange between repositories."
"I have found that some of the functions could be missed in the solution for new users. They are not obviously present."
