"They offer a large number of devices and browser/operating system combinations for real device tests"
"The abundance of device, platform, and browser combinations/versions that can be used in parallel."
"There is a huge amount of open source, community provided resources."
"The most valuable feature is the cross-browser feature, it has many android and iOS devices both simulators and real devices. It's easy to integrate. I also like video recording too."
"The most valuable feature is cross-browser, cross-OS, cross-mobile device testing."
"It offers the single best solution for integrating deep automated browser testing in a CI/CD pipeline."

"Performance-wise, it is a great tool."
"Easy to use and easily scalable."
"There have been various times throughout the last month or so where the service has gone down during business hours."
"If I had to speak of an area that could be improved it would probably have to be the speed of interaction with the devices. There is at times a considerable amount of lag while using some of the virtual and at times even physical device farm"
"The pricing model of Sauce Labs could be more flexible. Sauce Labs has just one price for the type of solution and a set number of devices. Other solutions have a fee for the base solution and an additional cost per device. If you're a smaller organization, you have to consider your needs. Some smaller companies still need to test various devices, so my advice is to start small and scale up as needed. We had initially planned to start big, but that would have been a big waste."
"I would like for there to be more detail in regards to the quality of our code i.e. how many failures occurred, how many passed based on industry standard metrics, etc."
"They should provide a JIRA integration plugin so that we can easily log issues."
"We encountered minor issues with stability from time to time but Sauce Labs continues to make improvements."
"Sauce Labs needs to be improved in the different platforms for farm testing, like iOS and Android farm testing and farm testing web browsers."
"I may not know what should be improved on the platform, but I think it could offer a greater variety of testing solutions. I know there might be competing solutions that cover more things I'm unaware of, and it could expand a bit more. We've done a lot of automated testing scenarios, and that's all the rage these days, so I think Sauce Labs could look at potential ways to improve and cover other scenarios."
"Visual Studio Test Professional needs to improve its stability."
"The solution can improve the startup time."
"It is hard to learn, and you need to invest time to understand it."
"The price is reasonable, but it's not the best."
"Over the years, I haven't identified any specific enhancements that I desire; Visual Studio has consistently met my requirements seamlessly and flawlessly."
"It could be available for multiple platforms and other operating systems like Mac with a native port."
"The interface should be made attractive."
"It needs more integration with other tools for monitoring. Microsoft also needs to make it more modern to make it work with microservices and the cloud. It is a bit outdated currently."
