Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Test migration from HPE are done automatically. We can extract our tests from HPE, and they convert it into the Panaya format.""It is easy for business users to use who are not familiar with testing tools.""The initial setup was not complex and the product itself is very easy to configure and use.""Provides better monitoring for testing campaigns and business process testing.""The solution helps with recording and documentation.""The test repository to follow the test progress is most valuable because we can easily create and manage a huge number of test scripts. We can copy and paste, replicate, and drag and drop many tests scripts. We can create test scripts en masse. When you have a high volume of tests, the tool is quite useful. It works well when you want to manage a lot of tests, such as you have 1,000 or more test scripts.""The most valuable feature is the ability to copy the scenarios and as we do a rollout we can efficiently complete test three and put it somewhere else under a new subsidiary."

"Parasoft SOAtest has improved the quality of our automated web services, which can be easily implemented through service chaining and service virtualization.""Technical support is helpful.""We have seen a return on investment.""The testing time is shortened because we generate test data automatically with SOAtest.""Since the solution has both command line and automation options, it generates good reports.""The solution is scalable.""We can automate our scenarios in a data driven format, which shows there is no rework on scripts. We only need to update the test data and run for a number of scenarios.""They have a feature where they can record traffic and create tests on the report traffic."

Cons
"Nothing is automatic.""The setup of Panaya Recorder is a bit complex. Panaya is a SaaS application, but you need to install some components on your computer. You need to set up your computer to allow Panaya Recorder to work. There are five or six things to do each time you install Panaya for any user. If you miss something, Panaya Recorder doesn't work. So, it is complex to install.""It would be nice to be able to test offline. What I mean by that is today most of the time things are in the cloud, but sometimes when we are in factories and we do not have network access and we should be able to download a test script into our PCs and do the test offline. Once that is complete we can re-upload it when we have a network connection.""They provide options for custom fields or tabs, but customization of workflows would be great.""Support is reactive and in English only."

More Panaya Test Dynamix Cons →

"The summary reports could be improved.""Tuning the tool takes time because it gives quite a long list of warnings.""Compatibility with HTTP 1.1 and TLS 1.2 needs to be improved.""From an automation point of view, it should have better clarity and be more user friendly.""Reports could be customized and more descriptive according to the user's or company's requirements.""The product is very slow to start up, and that is a bit of a problem, actually.""The feedback that we received from the DevOps of our organization was that the tool was a little heavy from the transformation perspective.""The performance could be a bit better."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The solution is rather expensive due to the security it has to offer."
  • "It is expensive. Because of its cost, we couldn't deploy Panaya to a large extent. Its licensing should be improved, and there should be more license types. There should be an advanced license and a basic license."
