Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like the fact that we can use LeanFT with our UFT licenses as well.""It offers a wide range of testing.""I find UFT One to be very good for thick clients, which are non-browser applications.""One advantage of Micro Focus UFT is that it is more compatible with SAP, Desktop ECC SAP, than S/4HANA.""The best feature of UFT by far is its compatibility with a large variety of products, tools and technologies. It is currently a challenge to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully automate tests for so many projects and environments.""The most valuable features for us are the GUI, the easy identification of objects, and folder structure creation.""With frequent releases, using automation to perform regression testing can save us huge amount of time and resources.""This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain."

"We also don't develop test robots like typing codes; we program them with drag-and-drop features.""It facilitates the delegation of control to multiple users and offers an efficient way to organize tasks using labels.""UiPath's most valuable features are reusability and low-code aspects. It works across both desktop and web applications.""Test Suite has multiple tools that are fully integrated. It has everything you need to record your test cases, generate your documentation, and integrate synthetic data with your Orchestrator. I like the integrated aspect of it. The biggest advantage of UiPath is that it not only tests but also integrates with all the other services to offer a complete package.""It is a very scalable product.""It's effective at testing whatever automation we've built or making sure the automation we've built is working fine.""We are finding bugs and defects much faster.""The detailed logging is invaluable."

Cons
"The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script.""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.""The UA objects are sometimes hard to recognize, so the coverage should be increased. Open-source alternatives have a broad scope. Also, it's sometimes difficult to make connections between two of the components in the UFT mobile center. It should be easier to set up the wireless solution because we have to set both. We directly integrate Selenium and APM, so we should try to cover all the features they have in APM and Selenium with the UFT mobile.""The product doesn't provide free training for the basic features.""Scripting has become more complex from a maintenance standpoint to support additional browsers.""We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work.""It should consume less CPU, and the licensing cost could be lower.""The artificial intelligence functionality is applicable only on the web, and it should be expanded to cover non-web applications as well."

More OpenText UFT One Cons →

"Orchestrator is not easy to use or understand.""We are facing problems specifically with Desk Manager.""UiPath’s Test Suite manual testing doesn’t work for our organization based on how the QA Analysts do their manual testing and the artifacts that are needed for deployment.""We'd like to see the solution integrate with more code or local frameworks.""Storing the test scripts is what needs to improve in the UiPath Test Suite, as it's currently a challenge to some extent. Maintaining the files is a bit challenging, especially when you need to keep those locally.""The product releases sometimes have issues.""They could improve the visualization of the product.""UiPath needs to improve its Test Manager feature. Defect management and reporting also need improvement."

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."
  • More OpenText UFT One Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "UiPath Test Suite is a cost-effective solution. Orchestrator is the most expensive UiPath module, costing around $20,000, but you don't need to purchase Orchestrator to use Test Suite. You can buy a nonproductive version that costs about $2,400. It's a better value than other products I've seen."
  • "When we decided to buy the solution three and a half years ago, it was fairly priced."
  • "I don't necessarily have a problem with the pricing of the UiPath Test Suite, especially because we're using the testing bot licenses as opposed to the unattended licensing."
  • "I wasn't involved in the negotiations for the UiPath Test Suite, so I have no information on its pricing."
  • "One robot license costs 1,500 euros."
  • "It represents good value for the investment."
  • "Regarding the pricing model, I believe it would be beneficial to combine it with some of the other platform aspects."
  • "I am not aware of the exact cost. It seems reasonable, but it is an additional cost."
