"It's a very simple solution to use."
"The most valuable features are that it is user-friendly, it's easy to use and easy to teach to others."
"Using SoapUI's automation suites to run all our test cases saved us a lot of time. Running 300 test cases takes about three to four days. When you automate all that, it takes only two to three hours."
"The solution has some good scanning features."
"The product allows us to uncover any potential issues early on."
"If the solution is running on Linux, there are some issues around application compatibility."
"The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run."

"If the load and bare minimum could be defined, I would give this solution a higher rating."
"The UI could be a bit more flexible."
"Occasionally, when you are saving, the solution can hang."

"There aren't any plugins for UI automation. You need to make a custom code and download a job to put into the libraries. If it were panelized, then it would be straightforward. It should be in a panel of the tools, so you can add those tools as your test step in your test cases."
