Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We don't have a big team of people that can watch the dials and check that everything is okay. We're doing a lot of the monitoring of our website and our product at the side of the desk. We need a solution that does a lot for us, and that's what Eggplant does.""It is not a conventional test automation tool. It uses optical character recognition (OCR) to identify objects. It makes it the best in the class.""We find the solution stable and scalable."

"The shared repositories can be used throughout all testing which makes jobs easier.""The most valuable feature is that it is fast during test execution, unlike LoadRunner.""The high-level security, high standard and compatible SAP are great.""The interface is fine and there is nothing else to add in terms of enhancement.""With certainty, the best feature of UFT is its compatibility with so many products, tools and technologies. It is a challenge currently to find a single tool on the market besides UFT that will successfully work for so many projects and environments. For example, UFT supports GUI testing of Oracle, PeopleSoft, PowerBuilder, SAP (v7.20), Siebel, Stingray, Terminal Emulator, Putty, and Windows Objects (particularly Dialog Boxes). Furthermore, UFT has the built-in functionality to import Excel input files.""Micro Focus UFT One gives us integration capabilities with both API and GUI components. I like the user interface. It doesn't require that much skill to use and has automatic settings, which is useful for users who don't know what to select. It also has dark and light themes.""This product is easy to use, understand, and maintain.""The solution has good out-of-the-box protocols."

Cons
"Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used.""I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."

More Eggplant Performance Cons →

"I would want to see a significant improvement in the tool's features. The most significant enhancements are support for panel execution and integration with DevSecOps.""The solution does not have proper scripting.""UFT has a recording feature. They could make the recording feature window bigger for whatever activities that I am recording. It would improve the user experience if they could create a separate floating panel (or have it automatically show on the side) once the recording starts.""Perhaps more coverage as far as different languages go. I'm talking more about object identification.""The product should evolve to be flexible so one can use any programming language such as Java and C#, and not just VB script.""It could work with more browsers other than Internet Explorer, and could better handle new things like Ext JS.""It doesn't support Telerik UI controls and we are currently looking for a patch for this.""The speed could be improved because a large test suite takes some time to execute."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Eggplant came out as the most competitive in terms of commercials (terms and conditions) which was positive. When we did the initial negotiations, Eggplant started at a price but they were open to negotiations and we did negotiate a discount. That was really important to us because it showed a level of commitment to us."
  • "The pricing is competitive in India."
  • More Eggplant Performance 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."
