We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"We always use the product for end-to-end automation test cases.""It's pretty straightforward to set up.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its versatility."

More Inflectra Rapise Pros →

"The feature I like most is the ease of reporting.""The scalability of the solution is quite good. You can easily expand the product if you need to.""The ability to develop scripts in Visual Studio, Visual Studio integration, is the most valuable feature.""A good automation tool that supports SAP functional testing.""Scripting is the most valuable. We are able to record and then go in and modify the script that it creates. It has a lot of generative scripts.""The statistics that are available are very good.""The major thing it has helped with is to reduce the workload on testing activities."

Cons
"The maintenance is very difficult. We've only been using the platform for three months, so I'm not sure if that will continue, but right now it's an observation I've had.""Inflectra Rapise needs to expand its ability.""It would be good if there could be more integration of Inflectra Rapise, since not all customers use the same tool for test management and automation integration."

More Inflectra Rapise Cons →

"Everything is very manual. It's up to us to find out exactly what the issues are.""The solution has a lack of compatibility with newer technologies.""Could be more user-friendly on the installation and configuration side.""The pricing is an issue, the program is very expensive. That is something that can improve.""They should extend some of the functions that are a bit clunky and improve the integration.""The support for automation with iOS applications can be better.""We moved to Ranorex because the solution did not easily scale, and we could not find good and short term third-party help. We needed to have a bigger pool of third-party contractors that we could draw on for specific implementations. Silk didn't have that, and we found what we needed for Ranorex here in the Houston area. It would be good if there is more community support. I don't know if Silk runs a user conference once a year and how they set up partners. We need to be able to talk to somebody more than just on the phone. It really comes right down to that. The generated automated script was highly dependent upon screen position and other keys that were not as robust as we wanted. We found the automated script generated by Ranorex and the other key information about a specific data point to be more robust. It handled the transition better when we moved from computer to computer and from one size of the application to the other size. When we restarted Silk, we typically had to recalibrate screen elements within the script. Ranorex also has some of these same issues, but when we restart, it typically is faster, which is important."

  • "Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis, and while I think that the price is quite reasonable I am not allowed to share those details."
  • "We paid annually. There is a purchase cost, and then there is an ongoing maintenance fee."
