We performed a comparison between Eggplant Test and Visual Studio Test Professional based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Test Management Tools solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Everything is happening on the layout or display that is used by the user. Eggplant prompts processes, like 'click here,' or 'look for this image.' Eggplant makes it possible for QA people and BAs, working in the actual display, to check if the software is providing the right images, the right text, and the right results. They don't have to go inside the code or to the TCP/IP layer. Everything is happening at the highest level."
"The most valuable features of Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence are bug hunting and OCR technology."
"The features that we like the most are the developer interface and the ability to quickly develop and deploy tests."
"GUI testing is the strength of the tool. The tool works as expected, and the support response from eggPlant, as a company, has been quick and substantial."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create code from a flow chart, and then run the code through it."
"It provides very strong cross-platform support."
"Its scalability is good. It is useful for desktop applications, and it also uses OCR and does image recognition."
"The solution is based on a Windows model, where adding users is just a few clicks. It is easy to manage users and add them."
"The debugging feature is valuable."
"Visual Studio Test Professional's most valuable feature is the rich IDE for doing code and test development."
"Code testing is the most valuable feature of this solution for developing software."
"The solution is easy to use and they have also integrated with Microsoft."
"The stability has always been very good."
"It's great for the development of .NET."
"The initial setup is easy. It's easy to configure."
"I was satisfied with the support given by customer service."
"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 In particular, some of their online help and user support documentation is a little bit out of date and could be revised and updated on a more frequent basis.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."
"Eggplant Test should emphasize on improving its offering in non-Windows environments."
"It has low productivity."
"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."
"There was no free trial in it."
"We found that we had issues regarding the VPN setup, which is one of the reasons that we did not purchase this solution."
"Eggplant Digital Automation Intelligence could improve by lowering the price."
"The solution would crash from time to time."
"It is hard to learn, and you need to invest time to understand it."
"There are too many features with the product and I would like there to be less."
"The price is reasonable, but it's not the best."
"The service right now is far too expensive. You need to pay per user."
"The solution can improve the startup time."
"One of the problems with this solution is you need to be highly technically skilled to operate it, it is not for everyone."
"It needs more integration with other tools for monitoring. Microsoft also needs to make it more modern to make it work with microservices and the cloud. It is a bit outdated currently."
"The tool crashes and has high memory consumption."
