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. There's no lagging and jittering.""The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing.""The most valuable feature is the variety the solution offers around the different types of devices, especially mobile devices.""Testing across devices and browsers without maintaining that inventory is invaluable.""The integration is very good.""BrowserStack has lots of devices to choose from.""The product's initial setup phase was not very difficult.""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."

"The most valuable features would be the image recognition and the OCR.""The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests.""It is easy to set up.""Good text reading ability.""The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it.""The main feature of Eggplant Test is that it can do fully automated web testing and app testing.""We are able to now automate tests, which so far have been manual.""It provides very strong cross-platform support."

Cons
"While I was testing I was not 100% sure a that was properly mimicking the browsers or not. We had some issues with a browser, and the reason was the browser itself does not provide any support. If the local system does not provide any support, I think this was the problem. There should be better integration with other solutions, such as JIRA.""Occasionally, there are disruptions in the connection which can interfere with our testing processes, especially when testing on phones.""We had some execution issues.""BrowserStack is scalable, but cost is significant for those living in Mexico.""Connectivity can sometimes mar the testing experience.""Sometimes BrowserStack is really slow and devices are not loading. it is really annoying and that's why we bought several newer devices because sometimes it's affecting us a lot.""BrowserStack operates at a slow pace, it could improve by making it faster.""If you are inactive for 30 minutes, the solution will close."

More BrowserStack Cons →

"The language is too specific; it is just for Eggplant.""The reporting function is a bit shallow. The solution does not offer very comprehensive reporting in terms of your test results. The reporting time and the logs are very high level as well. These areas need improvement.""Eggplant Test should emphasize on improving its offering in non-Windows environments.""I would like to see standardized actions already built into Eggplant. For example, "wait eight seconds". That way, I wouldn't need to create it as an action. Right now, I have to program that wait and describe it as an action so that everybody knows it is an action that waits eight seconds... That way, somebody who is not familiar with programming processes like "if-else", or "for", or "while", would be able, from the first moment, and without programming, to put some easy-to-use, standardized, actions in place.""If one area could be improved, it would be some of their documentation. In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis. Other than that, I haven't really found any issues or problems.""The IDE could be even more full-featured. Because I was a developer, I was very spoiled by either Visual Studio Code or Visual Studio for shortcuts. For example, I was able to say "ctor" and hit Tab and it would create a template of a constructor for me... It would be great, when I want to create a new function, if there were shortcut commands like those that helped create all of the functions, or if there were shortcut features to do any of the complex plans.""They need to update the Linux. I think it's kind of an outdated Java Swing application.""Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."

  • "BrowserStack could have a better price, but good things have a price."
  • "The price of BrowserStack is high."
  • "Compared to other solutions, BrowserStack is one of the cheapest."
  • "My company found the product's license to be very compatible with our budget, and we pay 5,000 to 10,000 per year for licenses."
  • "As for pricing, I can't provide a clear evaluation as I'm not directly involved in those discussions."
  • More BrowserStack Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "It is scalable, but it is a matter of money in the pocket. You can scale it, but then you have to have additional licenses. The licensing approach of eggPlant is not the best."
  • "Make a smart decision about the number of developer- and execution-only licenses you purchase to maximize your budget. We found that going heavier on execution-only licenses has been a way to reduce our costs and maximize our ability to benefit from the software."
  • "End-to-end testing isn't possible for us because of the licensing problems. It's very expensive, so we only have two development/execution licenses."
  • "It probably has a yearly license."
  • "This solution is expensive when compared to the market. However, the reason it is more expensive is because of its stability, high performance, and for its support of any technology."
  • "Eggplant Test is a very expensive solution."
