KK
Practice Specialist at a government with 1-10 employees
Cloud-based testing has simplified remote mobile validation and provides flexible device coverage
I was not impressed with how detailed their analytics and logs are from LambdaTest. The solution we were testing is being used because many of us are working from home. It was easy to implement because with a real phone, we have to bring a real phone to each person. Since three years ago, many employees have been working from home, so we were trying to find a solution for this challenge. We had no need to exploit the information for the analytics generated in the background. The purpose was simply to make it easy for our employees to access a phone. The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers. The contrast on a real iPhone provides better contrast than with the cloud solution. The only aspect that was less favorable than on a real phone was the contrast of the color.

Sr. Quality Assurance Project Manager at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees
Has supported faster test execution and increased flexibility while offering room to improve support responsiveness
Reducing the levels of support is something they could continue to improve. They tend to have an entry-level person that may not be as familiar with the product that fields the calls, which creates another day of delay to get to the level that's needed. This is a common practice across most companies where you call, you get the entry-level person, and then they work their way up to help screen calls so that they are more focused.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the real-time testing, which helps you to test your website on more than two thousand combinations of browsers and operating systems."
"The solution is very easy to understand and has a user-friendly UI."
"The most valuable features are that it's essentially on-demand, and you only focus on getting the code that needs to be executed without having to worry about the OS, hardware, etc."
"The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, and we were able to figure it out very quickly."
"In case something goes wrong at LambdaTest end, the Support team is extremely responsive to analyze any platform-related issues."
"LambdaTest offers geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"I was really surprised by LambdaTest; it was a very good service and for the price, I think it is a very good solution."
"Micro Focus UFT One is a great tool and can be used in a variety of ways."
"Being able to automate different applications makes day-to-day activities a lot easier."
"​Record and Replay to ease onboarding of new users."
"The solution's recording option is the most beneficial for test script creation and maintenance."
"The most valuable features are its support for multiple technologies, ease of coding, object repository, and ability to design our own framework. The recording playback feature allows those unfamiliar with coding to use the tool."
"It is very simple to use, and the scripting language is even easier."
"I like the fact that you can record and play the record of your step scripts, and UFT One creates the steps for you in the code base. After that, you can alter the code, and it's more of a natural language code."
"We have used it for the web and Windows-based applications. It is very productive in terms of execution."
 

Cons

"LambdaTest needs to have native application testing, which would be a great help to my team."
"It would be nice to have an API for visual regression testing."
"There is scope for improvement in service account usage, LDAP integration, and adapting new devices and features."
"Sometimes, when multiple users use the tool simultaneously, it can slow down, affecting efficiency."
"Mobile application testing will be an added benefit for us if LambdaTest implements this really soon."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"Performing automation testing from UI is a little slow and could be improved."
"I am not sure if they have a vision of how they want to position the leads in the market, because if you look at Tosca, Tosca is one of the automation tools that have a strategy, and it recently updated its strategy with SAP. They are positioning them as a type of continuous testing automation tool. And if you notice Worksoft, particularly the one tool for your enterprise application, your Worksoft is positioning. I am not sure if Micro Focus UFT has a solid strategy in place. They must differentiate themselves so that people recognize Micro Focus UFT for that reason."
"Customer service is a big drawback. From my personal experience, after creating a ticket, it takes three to five days for them to acknowledge it and then send it to somebody."
"The AI feature needs improvement. For banking applications, we input formatted text from documents, but the AI feature is recognizing three fields as one field, e.g., for a phone number, it puts all 10 digits in the international code or country code. Then, the script fails."
"We used to run it as a test suite. Micro Focus provides that in terms of a test management tool as ALM, but when we think of integrating with a distributed version control system, like Jenkins, there isn't much integration available. That means we need to make use of external solutions to make it work."
"It should consume less CPU, and the licensing cost could be lower."
"The tool needs to improve its performance since it can become heavy."
"The initial setup is complex."
"The scripting language could be improved. They're currently using Visual Basic, but I think that people need something more advanced, like Python or Java."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"LambdaTest is priced well, which is why we migrated to it."
"I used the product for free."
"This is an affordable product."
"It is free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy."
"The tool is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"The product can be described as an averagely-priced solution."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
"Compared to other tools in the market, UFT One is very competitive. The recent Covid pandemic situation also hit customer budgets significantly, so Micro Focus offered some discounted prices, which is definitely competitive."
"Compared to other products, the solution is very expensive."
"Its price is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
"The way the pricing model works is that you pay a whole boatload year one. Then, every year after, it is around half or less. Because instead of paying for the new product, you are just paying for the support and maintenance of it. That is probably one of the biggest things that I hear from most people, even at conferences, "Yeah, I would love to use UFT One, but we don't have a budget for it.""
"The licensing cost is high. There are no additional costs to the standard license."
"The solution is priced reasonably for what features it is providing. However, it might be expensive for some."
"For the price of five automation licenses, you simply would not be able to hire five manual testers for two years worth of 24/7 manual testing work on demand."
