Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It is a stable solution.""Hidden among the kitchen sink of features is a new Data Generation tool called the Test Combinations Generator.""I like the fact that you can record and play the record of your step scripts, and UFT One creates the steps for you in the code base. After that, you can alter the code, and it's more of a natural language code.""Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier.""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 entire framework is very useful. It's easily integrable with Excel.""The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good.""The inside object repository is nice. We can use that and learn it through the ALM connection. That's a good feature. The reporting and smart identification features are also excellent."

"We are finding bugs and defects much faster.""It facilitates the delegation of control to multiple users and offers an efficient way to organize tasks using labels.""Our team used to require five to six days to complete the entire release or execution cycle. Now, we're able to complete it within just one or one and a half days.""The detailed logging is invaluable.""UiPath's most valuable features are reusability and low-code aspects. It works across both desktop and web applications.""The document understanding is good.""UiPath's tools are generally designed for business users, so they can be as simple or as complex as needed.""The console, in a single pane, allows us to understand where we are in the testing environment."

Cons
"I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution.""You have to deal with issues such as the firewall and how can the tool talk with the application, i.e., if the application is on a company network and so on. That, of course, is important to figure out.""One of the drawbacks is that mobile performance testing is in need of improvement.""I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved.""The solution is expensive.""I would like to have detailed description provided to test the cloud-based applications.""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.""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."

"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.""We have output arguments in the workflow. We can check results only by using those arguments. It would be better to have some more options, such as screen variables. For example, in a workflow, if we want to check if an activity is present inside, we should be able to get the output to UiPath Test Suite through the activity itself. That would be great for testing.""I don't rate its ability to automate very well.""We are facing problems specifically with Desk Manager.""They could improve the visualization of the product.""With Selenium, there is a plugin called Healenium, which helps automatically detect changed properties of objects. With one click, it automatically updates the object repository with the changed properties. I would like UiPath to add that capability.""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."

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."

  • "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."
