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

"Ability to use different frameworks."
"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."
"The overall product is awesome for device fragmentation, but not for automation."
"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."
"Game testing and the API for apps are good."
"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."
"This service allowed me to get tests running within an hour of signing up!"
"Free and unlimited access to a variety of browsers to test your website in a real environment, not just simulating behavior."
"I love the capabilities of it, the support, and the service."
"Supplying devices to a testing team of possibly close to one thousand testers and developers is a great undertaking but Sauce Labs has made this very easy and a welcomed solution."
"Sauce Labs is valuable to my job for the multitude of devices and browser/OS combinations they provide for real device testing."
"They offer a large number of devices and browser/operating system combinations for real device tests."
"So many devices and OSs to choose from, with live remote sessions, we could see real results and real looks of websites across all platforms we needed to check."
 

Cons

"Some stages of its automation is not working correctly and I need to make changes in the code created by Testdroid."
"Their pricing structure is complicated and can be improved."
"Lacking capability options that can be directly integrated."
"Improvement of the product could be made by running the dashboard part, it gets stuck sometimes."
"Back in 2018 or 2019, I would have said that Sauce Labs' stability is horrible."
"The Jenkins Sauce OnDemand plugin could have more options available to tap into more of the custom capabilities Sauce Labs actually supports."
"It should provide more examples of script code."
"A little bit more speed needed to improve it."
"The way the owner/user/sub-user hierarchy is set up can be confusing."
"The testing process is difficult. I need to prove the complete competency of the tool, and I am finding that challenging."
"When we were in development, it was a bit of a pain because we have onshore and offshore development. One of our development shops is in India, and we were running tests over there. When some of the users tried to log in, it was slow for them or we didn't have enough licenses. That was during the core development before we even launched."
"The one issue I have is the 14-day trial that a new user gets for free."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is complicated. It's in the middle."
"Try the free trial and work with a Sauce Labs representative to see what package works best for your application(s)."
"It is an expensive tool."
"Their pricing is incredibly competitive."
"We have an enterprise account; it has worked great for our needs."
"We did initially go with Sauce Labs because of the pricing and integration."
"Go ahead please. Try it at a smaller scale."
"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."
"The pricing is definitely on the higher end, and there are other options that are more cost-effective."
