We performed a comparison between Panaya Test Dynamix and Tricentis Tosca based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Functional Testing Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is easy for business users to use who are not familiar with 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 initial setup was not complex and the product itself is very easy to configure and use."
"Provides better monitoring for testing campaigns and business process testing."
"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."
"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."
"The platform's most valuable feature is model-based testing, which is effective for test case design and optimization."
"You can quickly build automated testing, manage it, and have it run on a regular basis to ensure that there are no issues."
"It is easy to maintain and easy to automate. No coding skills are required to automate. It is also easy in terms of transferring knowledge and skills. Many of my team members shifted over the past one and a half years, and there was no big issue with respect to knowledge sharing. It is a good tool that enables me to re-automate my scripts and update my scripts as quickly as possible. Looking at the amount of rework and maintenance activity that we had done for our scripts, it might have been a nightmare with some other scripting tool."
"As a codeless automation tool, the product offers a user-friendly experience without requiring extensive coding knowledge. Users can easily handle various applications, including web applications, SAP applications, Windows applications, and even Salesforce applications, without manual coding."
"The most valuable feature of Tricentis Tosca is it is a completely scriptless automation tool, which I liked a lot. They keep on continuously improving their tools, wherever we are facing any challenges they are able to provide a solution for it. It is easy to learn, everyone can easily read and understand what is happening with the scripts. Any business user or function tester can use the tool efficiently. This is a complete solution package."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are all the test automation functionality. It is a full-scale automation tool."
"This solution is very easy to learn and any non-programmer or manual tester, with little experience in automation, can pick it up quite easily."
"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."
"Support is reactive and in English only."
"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."
"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."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"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."
"Very difficult to get information about licensing costs."
"I think the downside would be licensing costs which are very high."
"The user management could improve in Tricentis Tosca because it is confusing. It would be better to have it in one place. Having to add it to the cloud and to a specific project can be a mess."
"The product needs to improve its pricing. It also needs to improve the infrastructure and DEX agent setup."
"They can make it more stable. I have used this tool for SAP applications. They have an alliance with SAP, and it mostly worked fine, but there were a few glitches. However, we got the required support from the Tricentis team. They are coming up with their new versions and upgrades with respect to how the Tricentis systems as cloud applications are updated, and it would be good if they have a robust accelerator pack."
"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."

@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
