Flexible and intuitive with easy reporting, and good support that is instantly available through chat
It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different bug tracking tools at the same time. This is not an issue if you only have one bug tracker but we can potentially use different tools for different projects. As an example, if you connect PractiTest to Jira for one project, that's the one you have to use for all projects. We had a requirement to connect with Jira for one project, and a different tool for another, project but it was unable to accommodate that unfortunately. I would therefore like to see it easier to integrate with bug tracking tools at project level which would give each project the opportunity to use a different bug tracker if required.

Ability to automate tests across various platforms and simplifies test creation
From what I've seen with my colleagues who make the software selection, the prices for this software in Brazil are too expensive to be applied to anything but huge customers. I'm surprised because I was in charge of planning and control at the company before, when there was a manager there. Normally, the company has structural licenses that are based on the company they are selling to. I see that these companies cannot spend this money on Tricentis. I think Tosca is losing this type of market. They should have a different license policy for medium and small companies. The same happened in the past with SAP, which changed its policy and also made licenses for low.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the way the libraries are structured so that they were not folder driven."
"The most valuable features of Tricentis Tosca are the ease of use, you do not need to program if you do not want to."
"The solution can be deployed in DevOps and ERP environments like Oracle Fusion. It accelerates testing with the libraries. The product incorporates libraries and is more sensitive to the scans."
"It has helped teams within our organization become more aware of the testing requirements in terms of risk and priority."
"The automation engine is very strong, and it is very competitive in the market in terms of features. They develop a lot of features."
"The initial setup isn't too difficult."
"Very user-friendly and the low code automation is really helpful."
"I am impressed with the product's script test."
"The scriptless automation tool is one of the important features."
 

Cons

"It doesn't allow you to connect to multiple different tracking tools."
"I would say the reporting part of the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would like a better user interface."
"Parallel execution is not yet implemented for Tosca. This means you can't execute the same test case on multiple machines remotely."
"With regard to areas of improvement, report customization should be easier. It would be good if Tosca could provide standard reports for at least 20 variants. At present, there are only three to four variants. The mobile engine needs to be faster and easier to use; it is a bit cumbersome. Also, the object identification in the mobile engine needs improvement. I would like to see easy-to-use customizations for reports in the next release."
"I would like to see something in terms of AI capabilities."
"Security, UI, and basic performance improvements could be done to the product to enhance its use."
"ScratchBook execution needs to be improved as Tosca crashes multiple times."
"I think the downside would be licensing costs which are very high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing is probably in the middle, it's not the cheapest but it's not the most expensive."
"We have around 200 [concurrent] licenses and the cost around $1.4 million a year."
"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."
"Expensive, but for long-term projects, it is paying back."
"It is expensive."
"There are two licenses: single user and multiple user. A multiple-user license means that several people can work together on one project and collaborate on code stored in a central location. A single-user license is for people working alone on a one particular application. It's much cheaper than a multi-user workspace. If you are getting a large volume of licenses for an enterprise, you can probably negotiate a discount, but I'm not sure about that."
"It is expensive. There is also the training cost, but it does speed up the process. So, you get a return on investment."
"Although the product is slightly more expensive than tools, its automation capabilities and reduced scripting needs justify the cost."
"I give the cost of Tricentis Tosca a six out of seven."
