Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"With screenshots, I can quickly verify a page looks universally good in minutes.""I have found CrossBrowserTesting to be scalable.""Each new session started with the live testing feature allows for a cleared browser and new experience to be able to not only see these attributes on the page clearly but also pass clean data.""At the moment, all our deploys depend on results of automation. If the tests are failing, then we know that something is wrong at the early stages of development.""When I started to work on testing automation, I was very excited about how easy it is to run tests on different browsers. It was just a matter of configuration.""I must acknowledge that the customer support has been A++ when I have run into problems.""The features that I find most useful and the ones that I use the most are local site testing, device and browser testing, and screenshots.""Video recording of the script running in a cloud server."

"For automation testing, the tool provides the record and playback option, which helps with object detection easily.""The product is easy to use.""It is a complete solution for mobile application testing.""The most valuable feature of this solution is virtualization.""The solution is easy to use. There are features to orchestrate mobile testing, including mobile testing automation. You can test different devices at the same time.""There are numerous valuable features such as automation, the ones that facilitate importing and synchronization capabilities between our platform, Jira, and Azure DevOps.""The fact that it allows users to test on real mobile devices instead of emulators is something that projects have told us is beyond compare."

Cons
"A problem that we are facing quite often is related to the network connection. Tests can fail if the remote CrossBrowserTesting's VM has connection problems. This happens mostly with browsers of Internet Explorer family which work on Windows OS.""Sometimes, some of their instances fail, particularly in older versions of browsers.""The five minute timeouts can cause irritation if you have just popped away to consult some supporting documentation.""There should be more detailed training on CrossBrowserTesting.""The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved.""We had some issues with the onboarding process and the cloud conductivity could improve.""I have had quite a few issues trying to use a virtual machine to test our application on.""Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up."

More CrossBrowserTesting Cons →

"We need to scale devices easily. Some customers would like to loop in AWS or other cloud providers to check if their devices have the cloud factor. OpenText UFT Digital Lab needs to improve it.""We like to host the tools centrally. We would need them to be multi-tenants, so different projects could log on and have their own set of devices and their own set of apps, and they wouldn't see data from other projects that are using it.""For the most part, the key challenge is ensuring that customers fully utilize the product as intended and adopt the appropriate frameworks to implement the solutions effectively.""They should introduce a pay-per-use subscription model.""The product's object detection method needs to be improved since it can help testers do perfect testing.""The documentation and user interface both need improvement.""I would like to see more integration with automation tools."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The lowest price point is very reasonable. It is also useful if only one person in the company needs to check on the browser display."
  • "A few intermediary pricing options for small QA teams would be nice, e.g., unlimited screenshots, "as you need it" parallel tests, etc."
  • "CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."
  • "It is worth the pricing as the product is supported on multiple platforms and browsers."
  • "SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
  • More CrossBrowserTesting Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "OpenText UFT Digital Lab's pricing is average, and I rate it a five out of ten."
  • "The product could be more affordable."
  • "While the pricing may seem relatively high, when compared to competitors, it often falls in line or can even be more cost-effective."
