Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It's not only web-based but also for backend applications; you can also do the integration of the applications.""My company has not had an issue with OpenText UFT One since we have been using it for the past three to four years.""It offers a wide range of testing.""It's simple to set up.""The production and the efficiency of making your test cases can be very high.""The most valuable feature for me is that it works on multiple platforms and technologies.""The scalability of Micro Focus UFT One is good.""It is easy to automate and new personnel can start learning automation using UFT One. You don't have to learn any scripting."

More OpenText UFT One Pros →

"The features I find most valuable is the automatic remapping of aliases, because it is really helpful.""I like that it offers internal methods for supported controls. It is very easy to code the tests. Object Spy is also a good feature."

More SmartBear TestComplete Mobile Pros →

Cons
"It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this.""The overall design needs an entire overhaul. We prefer software designed to ensure the package isn't too loaded.""I would like Micro Focus to provide more information on their portal about their newer products. The information about UFT One was outdated. The image recognition features could also be better.""The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script.""They should include an automated feature to load backlog tests.""Sometimes UFT can take a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected.""Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory. On this note, if you are running UFT on a virtual server I would add more RAM memory than the minimum requirements especially when using multiple add-ins. HP is pretty good about coming out with new patches to fix known issues and it pays for the user to check for new patches and updates on a regular basis.""I'd like to see test case-related reports included in the solution."

"It is very difficult to use the aliases on old software.""The mapping is pretty complicated because there are a lot of controls that are the same and if you have a long name with the object mapping it is easy to get confused."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
  • "The licensing and pricing model is confusing."
  • "It's an expensive solution."
  • "For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
  • "The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
  • "The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
  • "The pricing fee is good. If someone makes use of the solution once a day for a half hour then the fee will be more expensive. For continuous use and application of the solution to different use cases, the fee is average."
  • "The price is one aspect that could be improved."
