We performed a comparison between Katalon Studio and OpenText UFT One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Regression Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Katalon Studio's biggest advantage is its price. It's a good tool for the price, albeit with some limitations when you compare it with tools like Tricentis Tosca."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward and easy enough to complete."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."
"It is easy for a non-technical person to use and adopt."
"The ability to build all libraries with codes and use them in many situations has been most valuable."
"It has been good so far for API testing on Mac. It is not that hard to learn and use. There is so much support out there, so if anyone wants to start using it, there is enough help."
"Video capture on failure is a must have. A picture is worth a thousand words. A video is worth a thousand pictures (literally)."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"The initial setup is relatively easy."
"The stop automation is a great feature."
"On a scale of one to ten, I would give OpenText UFT One a 10 because it is a reliable product, it works, it's as good or better than similar solutions especially because you get technical support from real people. Additionally, upgrades are always provided on a consistent basis."
"It is a stable solution."
"I like the fact that we can use LeanFT with our UFT licenses as well."
"Compared to other products, UFT One is better, faster, and more accurate."
"The production and the efficiency of making your test cases can be very high."
"I would like to see improvements in how Katalon Studio works with iOS applications, especially with React Native applications."
"It would be helpful if they can integrate a feature for performance testing."
"One improvement would be if it could support more programming languages such as JavaScript or Python. Right now, it is only on Groovy, which I think is not a too popular language."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"The product’s regression testing time could be reduced."
"There is not much support offered for the free version, which is something that could be improved."
"The price of Katalon Studio is an area of concern where improvement is required."
"The Object Spy is rather frustrating to work with, so I tend not to use it."
"It should consume less CPU, and the licensing cost could be lower."
"I would want to see a significant improvement in the tool's features. The most significant enhancements are support for panel execution and integration with DevSecOps."
"The scripting language could be improved. They're currently using Visual Basic, but I think that people need something more advanced, like Python or Java."
"We'd like it to have less scripting."
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."
"Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory. On this note, if you are running UFT on a virtual server I would add more RAM memory than the minimum requirements especially when using multiple add-ins. HP is pretty good about coming out with new patches to fix known issues and it pays for the user to check for new patches and updates on a regular basis."
"Object identification has room for improvement, to make it more efficient."
"The artificial intelligence functionality is applicable only on the web, and it should be expanded to cover non-web applications as well."
