SmartBear TestComplete Pricing

There are certain challenges related to the license management system in place. It comes with a high cost. An annual price is around four thousand five hundred plus per user, whereas UiPath is only three thousand UAN rate hundred per user per year.

The licensing fees attached to the solution can be considered as expensive. In the AI era, SmartBear TestComplete charges a lot of money from its users for the automation functionalities it provides. In the future, my company plans to use Selenium and stop the use of SmartBear TestComplete.

TestComplete has a platform, and then you have to buy modules. Overall, for us, the cost of the TestComplete platform and the three extra modules is around $8,000.

It costs a few hundred per year, but I am not sure. It is not at all expensive as compared to other tools.

This is a pay-per-use service that is not expensive, and cost-efficient if you have a small team.

My advice so far, is that while it’s not quite as powerful and easy to use as UFT, its price tag more than makes up for it. It makes it an excellent cost saving alternative.

Buy modules on demand. If you have a four-person team and they will each automate tests only 25% of the time, it's better to buy a floating licence and share the tool during the work day. If they will each use it all the time, buy licences for all of them.

The price of SmartBear TestComplete could be less. The main challenge is when it comes to node-locked. They should use a subscription model, such as a monthly-based subscription or, a quarterly-based subscription. Their floating license is very expensive, and this high price should be reduced or provide, at a minimum, a subscription model.

The product is becoming more and more expensive. There are two types of licenses: locked and float. Locked license save more, but can only be used in a physical machine. Float licenses can be run in virtual machines.
View full review »The licensing options for TestComplete both running a licensing server. This prevents users from running more sessions simultaneously than purchased keys. This can prove problematic if you want multiple developers writing or running tests at once, and prevents you from using your key while a distributed test is running.
For pricing, carefully consider how many machines you want running the software, rather than the number of developers.
Our recent purchase was a single node locked license for one user which was very inexpensive. That fit our project needs and the automation strategy. The solution resides on inexpensive laptop for development and execution.

The price is moderate. It's not the cheapest or the most expensive if you compare it with other competitors. It's okay.
View full review »The solution doesn't have a very flexible pricing model.
View full review »One of the main reasons I went with TestComplete, besides the information that I already provided, was the cost for TestComplete and TestExecute. They make it very easy for large to small companies to implement without large costs. The licenses are broken down the amount of users that need to use it and they also have the option of floating licenses.

I'm not sure if there are licensing costs involved in the solution. We simply bought the product outright and started using it.

View full review »It is not a good idea to choose this tool only if it is being used by others. In our case it is an expensive tool, and we should have exerted the same effort by using Selenium, and would have had better results. It appears that if you have a bif web application built in HTML5 and Jquery, and uses Divs and Modal dialogs, then avoid using TestComplete.

TestComplete now have come up with three modules (Web, Desktop & Mobile), so based on the type of product for automation, it is adequate to purchase the required module. Node-locked and floating license are available which could be decided based on the team composition and work strategy. Current license pricing is available at http://smartbear.com/product/testcomplete/pricing/

View full review »They are changing the licensing structure which is really bad. TestComplete 11 supports all TestComplete modules in one license. TestComplete 12 has separate licenses for each module, Web, Desktop, etc. I hate the new licensing structure.
It is expensive, and it is difficult to acquire living in Brazil. They should facilitate this. There are few representatives for this solution with little interest in selling it here.
