Pricing and Cost Advice | ||
"We would purchase more licenses right now if they were cheaper. Pricing is a little bit of a hindrance." "It is expensive compared to some of the other automation tools in the market. However, the benefits and ROI has proved that it has been a good investment." "The initial upfront cost in terms of licenses, plus all the money that we spent developing tests, has proven it's worth. Now, we can do a regression test suite in ten days as opposed to sixteen weeks." "Our ROI is primarily a reduction in testing time. The testing, when we were doing it manually, was 30 to 40 percent of the project's cost." "We ended up buying too many licenses. They were very good at selling it to us, and probably oversold it a little. We bought 45 licenses and have never used more than twenty. However, they gave us a pretty significant discount on the bigger license, so it made sense for us to buy enough that we wouldn't have to go back and ask for more." "We could use Certify to do robotic process automation, which is basically running a process on your correction system instead of your test system. Therefore, we may do that in the future." "By using automation, it reduced about 75 percent of the time when compared to any other tool." "Saving money and better quality, these are the benefits of Certify." | "It is quite expensive and is priced per seat or in concurrent (or floating) licenses over a period of months." "The pricing is quite high compared to the competition." "The cost of this solution is a little bit high and we are considering moving to another solution." "When we compare in the market with other tools that have similar features, it may be a little bit extra, but the cost is ten times less." | "For the cloud services option, you buy a subscription per account or per user. This costs around $52 a month per person." "I think that the pricing is quite good." "The pricing is expensive." More Visual Studio Test Professional Pricing and Cost Advice » |
