Provides good stability and a valuable object identification feature
We evaluated data testing for millions of records. As per architecture, it can efficiently run a few thousands of records. However, we couldn't implement it for millions of records. Thus, it works well for a small amount of data. We have 30 users for it in our organization and use it daily. I rate the scalability a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The platform contributes to faster test release cycles."
"Integrates well with other products."
"In UFT, it's a simple click to insert the checkpoints."
"OpenText UFT Developer works well with record technology, making it valuable for recording."
"The most valuable features are the object repository."
"The most valuable feature for UFT is the ability to test a desktop application."
"The solution helps to accelerate software testing automation. It will help to reduce lead time and increase productivity and efficiency."
"The most valuable feature of Micro Focus UFT Developer is the flexibility to work with many different types of software."
"The cost is the most important factor in this tool."
 

Cons

"The platform's reporting aspects can be broader and include more granular details."
"In the next release, I would like to see integration with different cloud-based tools such as Azure."
"We push one button and the tests are completely executed at once, so just have to analyze and say it's okay. It would be nice if this could be entirely automated."
"The solution could improve by working better with desktop applications and websites."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Object definition and recognition need improvement, especially with calendar controls. I faced challenges with schedulers and calendars."
"There's room for improvement, especially when I compare OpenText to newer tools like NeoLoad."
"I have to keep the remote machine open while the tests are running, otherwise, it leads to instability."
"UFT is like a flagship of testing tools, but it's too expensive and people are not using it so much. They should work on their pricing to make themselves more competitive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the product's pricing an eight out of ten. It can be optimized."
"The cost of this solution is a little bit high and we are considering moving to another solution."
"Its cost is a bit high. From the licensing perspective, I am using a concurrent license. It is not a seed license. It is something that I can use in our network. It can also be used by other users."
"It is cheap, but if you take the enterprise license, it is valid for both software items."
"The pricing is quite high compared to the competition."
"The licensing is very expensive, so often, we don't have enough VMs to run all of our tests."
"The price of the solution could be lowered. The cost is approximately $25 per year for a subscription-based license."
"If I would rate it with one being inexpensive and ten being expensive, I would rate pricing an eight out of ten."
"It is quite expensive and is priced per seat or in concurrent (or floating) licenses over a period of months."
