We performed a comparison between Panaya Test Dynamix and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Perforce and others in Functional Testing Tools."Test migration from HPE are done automatically. We can extract our tests from HPE, and they convert it into the Panaya format."
"The test repository to follow the test progress is most valuable because we can easily create and manage a huge number of test scripts. We can copy and paste, replicate, and drag and drop many tests scripts. We can create test scripts en masse. When you have a high volume of tests, the tool is quite useful. It works well when you want to manage a lot of tests, such as you have 1,000 or more test scripts."
"It is easy for business users to use who are not familiar with testing tools."
"The initial setup was not complex and the product itself is very easy to configure and use."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to copy the scenarios and as we do a rollout we can efficiently complete test three and put it somewhere else under a new subsidiary."
"Provides better monitoring for testing campaigns and business process testing."
"The most valuable feature is being able to create a test case by recording some scenarios and then leasing that task case to other scenarios."
"The initial setup isn't too difficult."
"It's integrated with different technologies, desktop applications, package solutions like SAP, and mobile applications."
"One notable feature is its ability to handle negative XPath healing processes. If one XPath fails, Tosca can utilize backup XPaths to ensure test cases do not fail due to locator issues, thereby focusing on identifying application-side issues, which is the ultimate goal."
"We are satisfied with the support of Tricentis."
"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."
"Good use in Agile workshops, where the person needs to conceptualize the tests before the developer provides the complete application interface."
"Software testing tool that has multiple features. It's good to use for SAP testing, and it helps reduce test execution time."
"It would be nice to be able to test offline. What I mean by that is today most of the time things are in the cloud, but sometimes when we are in factories and we do not have network access and we should be able to download a test script into our PCs and do the test offline. Once that is complete we can re-upload it when we have a network connection."
"They provide options for custom fields or tabs, but customization of workflows would be great."
"The setup of Panaya Recorder is a bit complex. Panaya is a SaaS application, but you need to install some components on your computer. You need to set up your computer to allow Panaya Recorder to work. There are five or six things to do each time you install Panaya for any user. If you miss something, Panaya Recorder doesn't work. So, it is complex to install."
"Support is reactive and in English only."
"While the initial setup was straightforward, we required assistance with the configuration to ensure that everything was done correctly."
"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."
"It would be of great help if they can fix the loading or performance issues. Sometimes, when I create the test case folder and test cases, it feels like it has loading or performance issues. When passing the objects, we can't sometimes find the exact element. We need to find out that exact location and just give the path for that, and then it works. In the pipeline, when creating Jenkins, we create the list execution for passing the execution list to the commander. I feel it is a bit late, by a fraction of seconds. I first thought it could be my mistake or a setting issue, but I worked on that, and it's not a mistake or a setting issue."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"The solution is expensive compared to other tools in the market."
"The integration with mobile testing could be useful."
"First, Tricentis could improve Tosca's Linux scripting. We can automate Linux scripting, but there are a few commands that Tosca doesn't support. DVS support and the object identification mechanism could also be better."
"The tool lags in client-based applications. We have also encountered issues with the features in integrations."

@Jesús Antonio Santos Giraldo; both companies deliver excellent tools & services. It's going to come down to your use cases.
If you choose the wrong tool for your use case the risks are: Loss of time, money and opportunities. That's not going to be the tool's fault.
Tips that may help you in deciding:
- Use your current tools / last tools as benchmark to determine your future needs.
- Ask questions, here are a few to get you started:
-- What are your requirements?
-- Pros and cons of our current tools.
-- How much time do you want to spend developing and maintaining test scripts (assuming you want to automate)
--Who will work with the tool?
-- What do they have to say about their experience with current / past tools?
- Build a matrix based on feedback received, decide which points really matter in your matrix.
- Inform your org of the research you've done and ask for more input
- Go with a few key folks who work with / worked with the tools you are targeting and have a meeting with Tricentis / Panaya.
- Tell your story and ask how their tool can meet your need.
- Go back to your leadership and share what you learned,
- See if you can get a trial from the toolmakers. ;-) and try out a real world test.
- Make a documented decision on why tool X and not tool Y
