We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator.""It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting.""It's easy to use for beginners and non-technical people.""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.""The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement.""The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier.""It's simple to set up.""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."

"Has good automation and load-testing capabilities.""The graphics are very intuitive and it's very easy to get scale of development.""The function test feature is valuable.""We like that we don't need a separate management tool. This is a good feature. It also has an inbuilt performance tool which is on Flash. It has very good record and playback feature as well. The inspection tool is also very good. Overall, since it comes with all the three packages, it's very good.""Oracle Application Testing Suite's most valuable feature is it works very smoothly with all Oracle Java-based applications.""The solution is scalable.""OpenScript has many features that make it useful, including the ability to record and playback.""I like the functional testing. There's a product inside OATS called OLT, Oracle Load Testing. You can do the load testing without depending on any other tool"

Cons
"They need to reduce the licensing cost. There's pushback from customers because of the cost.""Object identification has room for improvement, to make it more efficient.""UFT has a recording feature. They could make the recording feature window bigger for whatever activities that I am recording. It would improve the user experience if they could create a separate floating panel (or have it automatically show on the side) once the recording starts.""The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute.""Micro Focus UFT One could improve by having more maintenance. Every time when we run the solution and develop something, the next time when we run it it doesn't recognize the object. I have to redesign the object again and then run the solution. It's really a headache, it's not consistent.""Needs to improve the integration with the CI/CD pipeline (VSTS and report generation).""I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason.""I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."

More OpenText UFT One Cons →

"It needs to be compatible with all browsers.""Licensing policies could be more intuitive.""We would like to see the instruction documentation made into video or audio formats, to help new users get used to the modules.""I would like to see better dashboards.""If there's a feature we want in OATS that's missing and we report that to Oracle, it takes a long time.""The dashboards need to be simplified and made more user-friendly.""Oracle Application Testing Suite could improve by offering desktop-based application automation. It is lacking in this area at the moment.""Lacks patches for new OS systems and doesn't work on a Mac."

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."

  • "ORACLE is giving at a very competitive rates to all its customers, and its a simple licensing process."
  • "There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
  • "The price of the Oracle Application Testing Suite is not expensive. It is less expensive than other solutions."
  • "Customers need to negotiate properly to get the tool at a lower price."
  • "The complete package, including load testing and performance analysis, has a licensing fee."
