"The solution is scalable."
"If you want something that’s not provided out of the box, then you can write it yourself and integrate it with SOAtest."
"Technical support is helpful."
"What I find valuable is that Tricentis is always refining the test methodology. They listen to feedback from the analysts about what the testing tool should do, and then Tricentis always implements it. So all the necessary testing functions are already implemented in their tools."
"Tosca BI is important to make sure that our data integrity is in check and validated; to make sure our data is good. Our data is the number-one important driver for our company, so if that's not good, we have some big problems."

"This tool has test data management capability along with test management."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the ease of use, you do not need to program if you do not want to."

"The performance could be a bit better."
"During the process of working with SOAtest and building test cases, the .TST files will grow. A negative side effect is that saving your changes takes more time."
"The UI does not have the option of automating the scroll bars."
"The Test Management options are still weak - improvement is outlined, but not yet visible. I"
"They need to improve on the reports after the execution of automation tests, since all the current organizations are looking for detailed graphical reports."
"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."
"The document object model or some aspects of it has a bit of a learning curve."
"The tool lags in client-based applications. We have also encountered issues with the features in integrations."
"Tricentis Tosca could improve on the ease of use. There is a steep learning curve. The reporting section could be better and some of the new features could be simplified. Additionally, the user management of the client and the server are confusing. There should not be two."
"I would like a better user interface."
