"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"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."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"From an automation point of view, it should have better clarity and be more user friendly."

"Its UI is not very user-friendly and could be improved. For new users, it isn't easy."
"More and more artificial intelligence (AI) is coming in. So, some amount of AI to create natural language processing (NLP)-based test cases and manage defects would be very helpful. This is because the technologies have evolved in the last five to six months, so there is a potential opportunity there."
"The solution should work with the Linux platform. Right now, it only runs on Windows."
"One thing to improve in Tricentis Tosca is that it's not compatible with Excel based forms. Another area for improvement is that the tool is not compatible with OpenText applications. The support and licensing cost for it also need improvement. The tool also needs cloud support, as it's currently on-premises only."
"I think the downside would be licensing costs which are very high."
"The solution needs to improve its simulation of mobile environments. Right now, that aspect is really lacking."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it. After that, they tried a new approach with key-tracing, and that didn't work."
"The support we received from Tricentis Tosca was good, but it can improve."
"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."
