Head of Digital & Cognitive Services at a tech company with 11-50 employees
A testing platform with a good API for apps, but pricing is complicated
I like that the AI Testbot is a near-zero code application for testing. For this use case, the function is good. The services are robust. Game testing and the API for apps are also good. From the perspective of pricing, licensing, ease of use, integration with other applications, impact complexity, and integration with other tools, we're pretty much very satisfied.

Provides multiple test environments and saves time, but should have something for inspecting mobile apps screens
With the desktop browser, we can inspect any screen with the web developer option, but they should provide something for mobiles so that we can quickly inspect elements on the device. To write the Selenium scripts, we require web locators. We have to capture them from the local and execute the script on Sauce Labs. If Sauce Labs can provide a solution where we can inspect any of the mobile devices online, it will be very helpful for us. I also faced an issue where during the execution time, the iCloud password used to expire within a certain period, which used to create pop-ups on the screen making our tests fail. That was one thing that we faced many times. If that can be improved, it will be very helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature that I like the most is that you can use different frameworks, whether it's APM or something else, and you don't need to worry about the framework."
"From the perspective of pricing, licensing, ease of use, integration with other applications, impact complexity, and integration with other tools, we're pretty much very satisfied."
"Ability to use different frameworks."
"The overall product is awesome for device fragmentation, but not for automation."
"Game testing and the API for apps are good."
"Faster access to different versions of browsers, without needing to worry about hardware or software limitations; 99% uptime."
"It's awesome. Its multifold increased our test efficiency."
"I like the dashboard and seeing the test results. As a manager, I like to see the insights of the people using it, understanding the total path and run. I can see all of that as a manager. I also know team members love seeing the dashboard and seeing the test results in real-time."
"Sauce Labs has helped us to resolve the issue of testing our automation cases across a big combination of OS versions and different screen sizes using real hardware."
"It provides zero maintenance browser instances."
"Testing is very fast with this tool."
"Using Sauce Labs testing, it is faster and more accurate."
"The error logging is also very robust. If we run a test through Sauce Labs and there's some sort of issue, a log will appear on the screen. Log messages are usually heinous and horrible... Sauce Labs is incredibly good at saying things like, 'Hey, here is the exact issue. Fix this and you can run the test.' That helps in getting things up and running and executing the way they should."
 

Cons

"Some stages of its automation is not working correctly and I need to make changes in the code created by Testdroid."
"Improvement of the product could be made by running the dashboard part, it gets stuck sometimes."
"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved."
"Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."
"They should provide a JIRA integration plugin so that we can easily log issues."
"Speed and connectivity need improvement."
"The main interface, although clean, is sometimes very slow to load on slower connections and selecting a machine and waiting for it to boot up the environment takes a lot longer than other products I have used."
"We have faced challenges with the availability of mobile devices. There was once or twice where there were no mobile devices available."
"Sauce Labs has room for improvement with its price point."
"The way the owner/user/sub-user hierarchy is set up can be confusing."
"I can't remove team members that have left the organization. I can only set them as inactive. It would be really nice to clean up my data and delete them from the team management."
"Sauce Labs' dashboard could be improved by adding more filters and allowing more customization options."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."
"Compared with other services, Sauce Labs is a bit expensive."
"The number of concurrent VMs that Sauce Labs provides depends on your purchase license level."
"They could improve on the pricing because it seems pretty expensive. I'm sure it's justified, but it's expensive."
"With respect to pricing, they did a bundled discount because we went with Sauce Labs for both mobile and browser. They were very competitive on pricing and provided a bundle discount for us as a larger customer."
"It could be less like pay-per-use with a lower rate."
"We have an enterprise account; it has worked great for our needs."
"Trial the product and see if it suits your needs."
"It is an expensive tool."
