"I rate Katalon Studio's scalability a four out of five."
"The recording feature of this product is very valuable for our testing purposes."
"The automation is very fast and you don't need to be overly proficient in coding."

"The product is easy to use."
"Testim introduces three services covering validation steps, eliminating the necessity to write complex code."
"The tool's most valuable feature is the recently added AI feature."
"It is a highly stable solution."
"The pre-defined tests are a great help, specifically the custom JS test that allows us to be able to use custom code to test complicated elements or scenarios."
"My recently-updated Katalon studio version hangs a lot and is not a stable version."
"The tool's maintenance is very difficult since they do not follow call by value or call by reference. Due to this, any change happening is not reflected throughout all the test cases. There are some issues with data parameterization as well."
"One aspect that can be improved is testing for desktop applications. I would like to see them support more technologies in this area."
"The price of the solution is a bit high. It's one of the reasons we decided not to continue using the product."
"We have been seeing some error pop-ups that are difficult to understand why they were triggered."
"We have had some issues when it comes to stability, which is something that needs to be improved."
"The product’s regression testing time could be reduced."
"It is difficult to identify elements on websites that use Angular or ReactJS because they don't have an option to view source code."
"The product's areas of improvement include pricing considerations and additional features related to visual testing and PDF handling."
"The UI could use a better design with a better user experience in mind."
"There were some issues in the product's initial setup phase in regard to the area of documentation since it wasn't very easy to understand everything mentioned in it."
"Testim sometimes fails due to stability issues. It doesn't always work consistently, especially after running multiple tests."
"The API testing integration is a bit lacking and can be improved."
"There are common properties between multiple elements that we should be able to edit - such as 'when this step fails,' 'when to run this step,' and 'override timeout'. I should be able to update these properties if I select multiple elements."
"The accessibility reporting features could be more robust to be reported at the script level and allow users to map down to the step level."
"I get a little bit confused while creating new branches."
