Offers unique object identification, ideal for UI layer regression automation but limited scalability
Performance is one key area for improvement. It can be slower compared to other tools I've used. Secondly, we have a very limited resource pool that uses this tool in India. So, finding resources familiar with Eggplant in India is challenging due to lack of affiliation programs and so on.

Automation test development becomes accessible and effective for functional testers
Tricentis Tosca is a codeless tool, making it easy for everyone to understand the transition of how to develop scenarios or test cases. In Tricentis Tosca, analyzing failures is straightforward because every time it fails somewhere, I get the screenshot, which helps me analyze how and why it failed. It has all the modules, including some pre-built ones that can be reused efficiently. Compared to other code tools such as Selenium, where I used to develop one script in one day, with Tricentis Tosca I can easily develop one script in four hours or three hours, saving four to five hours in a day.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We find the solution stable and scalable."
"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's been a revelation to us in terms of its ability to assist us in exploratory testing and to integrate with our current model-driven architecture."
"Customer Service: Excellent and very personal."
"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've been really fortunate in that we've had virtually zero downtime in all the time we've been using Eggplant."
"The mainframe testing and UI automation are the most valuable aspects of the solution."
"This solution allows you to create an entire automated framework where it allows you to easily manage everything in one place."
"I face no challenges or stability issues."
"It was the only way to organize and support automation testing process for our re-insurance tool for underwriters."
"What I find valuable is that Tricentis is always refining the test methodology."
"The model-based scriptless automation is the most valuable feature because it needs less maintenance as compared to script-based automation."
"It's integrated with different technologies, desktop applications, package solutions like SAP, and mobile applications."
"We have multiple applications, and it supports parallel execution. It has mobile automation."
 

Cons

"Bugs occur fairly frequently, but they are very responsive in identifying them and scheduling them for fixes in future releases."
"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."
"One area I can think of to improve is the usability of the reports that we get."
"I'd like to see the ability to integrate the user experience through device forms like AWS device forms or source labs."
"Tosca's reporting features could be better. Tricentis had a reporting tool called Analytics, but it didn't function properly after they reworked it."
"I would like a better user interface."
"Security, UI, and basic performance improvements could be done to the product to enhance its use."
"I would like to see the availability of more libraries"
"I have found that some of the functions could be missed in the solution for new users. They are not obviously present."
"The solution is expensive."
"You need to spend much more time learning the tool and how to use it, compared to others."
"Primarily I'm dealing with customers looking for a cheap solution, and they are willing to try open-source automation solutions. So from this perspective, the price of Tosca is not as competitive."
 

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."
"The pricing of the solution comes as part of our Tosca bundle."
"Tricentis Tosca should improve its pricing. It is expensive."
"The tool is expensive. It has become overpriced, especially after Tricentis Tosca grew as a company. Initially, we bought a license with an annual support fee, which wasn't too expensive. However, they changed the model, and now we have to purchase a license yearly, which has become quite costly."
"It is expensive."
"In terms of the licensing costs for Tricentis Tosca, we are spending more or less $70,000 per year. We have a very complex mechanism because there are some business users and some BI users, so the licensing structure is not simple, but support is included."
"I am satisfied with the cost."
"The pricing and licensing of Tricentis Tosca were alright. Many customers look for end-to-end enterprise solutions, there were not many challenges with the pricing. However, the customers who are coming from Selenium or similar, feel they're paying a premium for this Tricentis Tosca license. If the right person is there for the implementation of the Tricentis Tosca, then it is one of the best tools in the market."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
