The most valuable feature is the variety the solution offers around the different types of devices, especially mobile devices. 

The solution's UI is intuitive.

Just the ability to test across devices is probably the most valuable feature. For example, a website that we might be building out has to be responsive. Our initial design may work on some devices, but then in testing with BrowserStack we find that it does not work on all of them. So it reveals what we need to include in recommendations for our clients. From a practical standpoint, that could be letting them know what devices we might want to support or not support any longer.  

The other thing that we had to do — because some clients have their test environment secured — is to use the product's local testing abilities as a workaround. That feature lets you test web and mobile apps without hosting them on publicly. To be able to do that and provide the workaround is a pretty good feature.

We like the model device factory for iOS and Android devices. For example, Samsung mobile phones. Usually, you have to have a wide range of EL devices which is expensive for almost all applications in the hybrid model. Hybrid model applications mostly have problems with the latest devices and versions of operating systems. So, BrowserStack is ahead of the competition in regard to integration with the latest operating systems on mobile devices.

I've also worked on testing integrations with BrowserStack, particularly with a platform called IT. This involves testing the registration process, including receiving verification codes on devices and phones. BrowserStack has been excellent for testing these integrations, providing a seamless workflow development experience. I've had positive experiences with various integrations on BrowserStack.

The main core concept behind this product is, it takes the overhead of maintaining all of your devices or particular computers. It continuously adds the latest devices that are coming into the market. 

You are able to can record all of your executions session. It's easy to keep track of what you have executed. The screenshots are available.

There are a lot of unique features. For example, when you want to configure the bandwidth of your internet, or if you want to test something with the low bandwidth of your internet, such as how your features are working in the low band to allow configuration of your VPN. Some websites only can be accessed from the UK and if you want to mimic the scenario where the person from the UK is accessing the site, you can do that. Geographical mimicking is also available.

The most valuable feature is that it provides parallel and cross-browser testing. It enables us to run tests on multiple browsers or devices simultaneously. Geolocation and globalization testing are valuable as well.

For BrowserStack, it's helpful for me to test on different devices. Currently, that's the only tool that we use for testing on different devices. I don't have other devices. I only have one Android and one iOS. Other aspect ratios of different devices couldn't be tested on only two devices. That's the main purpose right now for BrowserStack.

If you ask me feature-wise, I don't think I have tested all the features there—around 40 to 60 percent— nor I was interested in doing do that because the trial was so short. However, there were a few devices that we did not want to procure but we found them within BrowserStack architecture when we tried it out. More than a feature, it was the hardware support that we were able to get through the interfaces. This helped us address a very rare requirement that had come up within our end customer's stack.
