BrowserStack Reviews

For my project, we utilize a VPN and BrowserStack for testing. This allows me to test our website across various browsers and platforms, including different versions of iOS, Android, and web browsers. It ensures that our website functions correctly across different environments and devices.

BrowserStack has been incredibly useful for our mobile testing needs. One scenario where it proved its value was when I needed to test a new feature across different devices and platforms. I utilized BrowserStack's emulator with real devices feature, selecting specific devices such as iOS devices like the iPhone 14 with different versions like 16 or 17. I could easily switch between devices and versions to simulate real-world usage scenarios. This flexibility allowed me to thoroughly test our UI and ensure compatibility across various devices and browsers, providing a reliable testing environment even when facing connectivity issues.

I've also worked on testing integrations with BrowserStack, particularly with a platform called IT. This involves testing the registration process, including receiving verification codes on devices and phones. BrowserStack has been excellent for testing these integrations, providing a seamless workflow development experience. I've had positive experiences with various integrations on BrowserStack.

One of the challenges I've encountered with BrowserStack is related to connectivity issues. Occasionally, there are disruptions in the connection which can interfere with our testing processes, especially when testing on phones. Improving the connectivity stability would be beneficial for making BrowserStack an even better product in the next release, in my opinion.

I have been using BrowserStack for almost 1 year.

In terms of stability, I would rate BrowserStack an eight out of ten, despite occasional connection issues.

I would rate BrowserStack as a seven out of ten for scalability, indicating it's moderately scalable. Approximately ten users are working with BrowserStack in our company. There are no immediate plans to increase its usage.

I would rate the initial setup of BrowserStack as an 8 out of 10, indicating that it's relatively easy to set up. The deployment process typically takes around one to two hours, although I'm not directly involved in the deployment steps.

As for pricing, I can't provide a clear evaluation as I'm not directly involved in those discussions.

I would recommend BrowserStack to other users as a helpful tool for testing across different browsers and versions, rating it a 9 out of 10.

The user experience is really good. We can integrate other SaaS and other stuff, like the banking service SaaS.

I have run the wireless testing process. The optimization in optics is good, and it automatically works well.

There is room for improvement in pricing. 

I've used it for a project for around three months, mostly for credit confirmation.

It's stable. Many organizations go for the largest plan because it's stable.

I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. There's no lagging and jittering.

It is a scalable solution. 

The initial setup is easy. It's on the cloud, using real virtual devices.

With respect to pricing, they are a bit expensive. I would rate the licensing model a six out of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap. So, the price could be a bit decreased.

Everyone has their own analysis. I advise them to analyze whether it's a good tool for their requirements before deploying it.

Overall, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten because it's difficult to replicate the way we experience BrowserStack on the spot on our virtual device. But because of its growing functionalities and features, we can't shift to multiple devices, so we have to go for BrowserStack.

I mainly use BrowserStack for browser testing.

BrowserStack has allowed us to do tests to cover criteria we couldn't do previously.

BrowserStack's best feature is browser testing across different platforms, including mobile.

One of the biggest issues with BrowserStack is that if you don't have your network set up by the book, it's hard to get it to work with local desk machines.

I've been using BrowserStack for three years.

There are some issues with BrowserStack's stability when sessions just shut down for no obvious reason.

I'd rate BrowserStack's scalability as eight out of ten.

The initial setup was straightforward. 

I would give BrowserStack a rating of seven out of ten.

We use the solution for the manual testing of mobile applications.

The most valuable feature is the variety the solution offers around the different types of devices, especially mobile devices. 

The solution's UI is intuitive.

We are having difficulty with the payment system for the BrowserStack team, as they only accept credit cards and we are encountering some issues.

I would like to have more online video demonstrations on how to use the solution.

I have been using the solution for one year.

I give the stability an eight out of ten. We have experienced some stability issues in some devices for a few minutes and it was resolved with the help of technical support rebooting one of the servers.

The technical support is helpful.

I previously used Micro Focus UFT Mobile at another company. My current company was already using BrowserStack.

The initial setup is straightforward and we do not require any configuration at the beginning. The deployment took one day. We only need to upload the solution and select the devices.

The implementation was completed in-house.

Compared to other solutions, BrowserStack is one of the cheapest.

I give the solution a nine out of ten.

We deploy the solution on cloud.

The speed of the solution and its performance are valuable.

The solution can be improved by including local testing. We are struggling to do local testing because we are in the office, and we normally create issues when we test.

We have been using the solution for approximately one year and are currently using the latest version.

The solution is stable. I rate it a nine out of ten.

The solution is scalable. I rate it an eight out of ten. Five people in our organization currently utilize the solution.

We have had a good experience with customer service and support, and they are very fast with resolving our issues. I rate them a ten out of ten.

Positive

The initial setup is easy, and we just need to log into BrowserStack and use a link that acts like a real browser or device. I rate it an eight out of ten.

I rate the solution a nine out of ten. The solution is good but can be improved by including local testing. I recommend that users consider implementing the solution because of its compatibility testing and nice concept.

We decided to use BrowserStack to analyze how the device works.

BrowserStack is widely used across the market and has a large community. So if we have any questions on how to integrate it, we have a wide range of engineers we can ask. A competitor Sauce Labs, was very popular five years ago, but people are not as confident with that solution as they are with BrowserStack.

We like the model device factory for iOS and Android devices. For example, Samsung mobile phones. Usually, you have to have a wide range of EL devices which is expensive for almost all applications in the hybrid model. Hybrid model applications mostly have problems with the latest devices and versions of operating systems. So, BrowserStack is ahead of the competition in regard to integration with the latest operating systems on mobile devices.

It is difficult to use for someone who has little to no experience. We want to see the EZT for testers that can be easily applicable to solutions. It has been done in AWS, where you open the AWS docs and can download to read all the information about the features and supported languages. This will make it more comfortable for those without experience with the integration.

Regarding additional features, we would like an EZT for testers that can be easily applicable to their solutions. It has been done in AWS, where we just open the AWS docs and can download all the information about features and supported languages.

BrowserStack is deployed on cloud, and we have ten people using this solution in my organization. We completed the deployment in-house.

We've used the latest version for two weeks of active usage.

There have been complaints about the stability of a test versus a BrowserStack, but no real proof of that, so it may be too early to rate the stability since we just started using the solution.

It is a scalable solution.

We have not needed technical support.

We have used Docker, Kubernetes, AWS, EZ2, and Java.

I rate the setup a four out of ten.

The pricing for BrowserStack is fine. However, I am not involved in the licensing decisions, so I do not have specific details.

I rate this solution a seven out of ten. Regarding advice, using BrowserStack depends on your needs and budget; if it is suitable based on your needs and budget, proceed to use it.

This has been a short-term project. We're still testing it out. We're doing functional and integration testing.

Right now, the scope is not there for the screen orientation, and we're not testing that right now. We're looking at speed and compatibility issues with different versions. We're able to find some of the UI issues and installation issues. We are able to capture admin app issues and UI issues.

The integration is very good. 

Support is very helpful. They'll even let you extend your test license.

It has been issue-free throughout the POC phase. 

Access has been very seamless. You can access it from all kinds of devices. 

It offers very good performance.

The stability is excellent. 

It's stable.

The solution isn't too costly.

I've had issues removing the app from a device. 

There can be a delay in response from support sometimes. 

If you are inactive for 30 minutes, the solution will close.

I started using the solution just over a month ago.

The solution is very stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches.

Right now, we are using the solution extensively and are testing monthly. Everyone is using it.

Depending on when you reach out, there may be a delay in response. That said, for the most part, their support is good.

Positive

I had previous experience with Perfecto. Perfecto is very slow and not that fast compared to BrowserStack. It was hard to log on, and I wasn't getting any help from support. There also wasn't proper integration. When we reached out to BrowserStack, they were great. They even extended the license for us. Everything was looking good, so we decided on this product.

The initial setup is very simple and straightforward. They have good instructions. You basically just enter your AppleID and log in, and it is very easy. The process is not complicated. You don't really need to deploy anything.

Right now, we pay for the solution monthly. It is not overly expensive. 
I'd rate the solution four out of five in terms of affordability. It is slightly more expensive than, for example, Perfecto.

We compared BrowserStack, Perfecto, and Testcraft and decided on BrowserStack. We weighed the pros and cons of everything, and it came out on top.

I suggest products to clients. I suggest which product is good for testing, for emulators. I'm a technical lead.

I'm using the latest version of the solution. Whenever any new version is there, it will immediately be added.

Right now, we are working currently with the iOS TestFlight. We are testing using that.

I would recommend the solution to others. 

I'd rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I mainly use it for using cross-platform testing. For example, using different devices mainly with it. With our current brand, with BrowserStack, we don't have other features provided. That's the only feature that I could work on right now.

For BrowserStack, it's helpful for me to test on different devices. Currently, that's the only tool that we use for testing on different devices. I don't have other devices. I only have one Android and one iOS. Other aspect ratios of different devices couldn't be tested on only two devices. That's the main purpose right now for BrowserStack.

The solution is slow.

There are limitations to the product. For example, the only things that we could validate were APK files and IPA files. For them to support machines such as Windows and Mac, or if they could add more, that would be ideal.

The pricing is more expensive than other tools. 

I've dealt with the solution for more than a year. 

I didn't appreciate much about the stability. There have been times that BrowserStack was really, really slow. That's why I am looking into a different tool.

I'm not sure about scalability. For BrowserStack currently, I only use it between Android and iOS platforms, however, I don't have the features wherein I could test on different types of machines as well, for example, testing on Windows and testing on Mac. That's a different platform as well. We also cater to web applications. In that manner, we couldn't validate web applications through BrowserStack. The only thing that we could validate was APK files and IPA files. That's the limitation of this product.

Four to five people use the solution currently.

We didn't actually reach out to their technical support team yet.

I'm not sure if a different solution was used previously. 

I was not involved with the setup or deployment of the solution. I can't speak to how the process went. 

The pricing is very expensive. The licensing is yearly. I'm not handling the finances. I'm not sure about the cost. We have an annual plan for BrowserStack since we don't want to do a monthly bill. It's much more expensive compared to annual pricing.

I looked into LambdaTest. While currently I only have BrowserStack, I'm looking into migrating over to LambdaTest instead.

We are customers. 

We're not using the latest version of the solution. It's a previous version. 

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

I use BrowserStack for functional testing.

The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing.

BrowserStack operates at a slow pace, it could improve by making it faster.

I have been using BrowserStack for approximately three months.

BrowserStack sometimes works well and other times it is very slow. The stability could improve.

We have 20 percent of our users in my company using BrowserStack.

I have not used technical support from BrowserStack.

I have not used another solution in the same category as BrowserStack.

The price of BrowserStack is high.

I rate the price of BrowserStack a three out of five.

I rate BrowserStack a seven out of ten.

We use BrowserStack for testing on different platforms. It's a platform that allows us to test on different devices and platforms. We're using it as a regression tool and for testing on different devices.

We have some requests from our users telling us that something's not working with their device and it's easy to find the bug if the user is going to provide us the OS version and the device that they have. We can go to the specific device and OS version and check it out on our end. Without BrowserStack, it could be difficult to do.

BrowserStack has lots of devices to choose from.

Sometimes BrowserStack is really slow and devices are not loading. it is really annoying and that's why we bought several newer devices because sometimes it's affecting us a lot.

There are times when the exact device does not exist with a specific iOS within BrowserStack. We're fully moving to iOS 15 and there are not many devices available with iOS 15. Those that are available are not available with other OS versions here.

It's good to have a custom setup but I understand that the testing starts with everything cleared, cookies, and incognito mode. In order to faster go through the SaaS process, it's better to have something with preset, such as when you visit the webpage on a certain date. This way, the testing is going to go faster for us. We would use it more extensively.

There are times when you're not clicking the right spot in your browser, such as the back button, and instead of using one within the browser window. We're testing a browser inside the browser and it could lead to some glitches, even though this is my mistake. I know it's my error. However, the user experience of the browser inside another browser could be improved. They could disable certain buttons or allow us to disable them.

I have used BrowserStack within the last 12 months.

There have been some stability issues.

We have plans to increase the usage of BrowserStack for visual testing in the future.

I have not used the support because I thought none of the bugs were experiencing would be something that could be fixed quickly.

We don't have the native BrowserStack application. We use the web application.  

We have evaluated Sauce Labs and the devices run faster but we most likely will still stick with BrowserStack. We are looking at moving to a different platform.

I would recommend others who want to use BrowserStack to see if they can receive a promotion period, at no cost, and test it out.

I rate BrowserStack an eight out of ten.

Approximately a year ago I would rate BrowserStack a six or seven out of ten because it was very buggy.
