Knowledgeable support, scalable, and stable
We use CrossBrowserTesting for testing our web-based applications We had some issues with the onboarding process and the cloud conductivity could improve. I have used CrossBrowserTesting within the past 12 months. CrossBrowserTesting is stable. I have found CrossBrowserTesting to be scalable.…

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The features that I find most useful and the ones that I use the most are local site testing, device and browser testing, and screenshots."
"When developing new pages that have questionable functionality or coding, we will often use CBT to test it in a browser. CBT works with our testing environment and development site."
"I am able to continuously test my new releases across browser versions without issues."
"CBT has made it easier to troubleshoot issues across devices when we do not have actual access to those specific devices. I even opt for CBT sometimes when we do have access to the device just because it is easier."
"CrossBrowserTesting improved my organization because it eliminates the need for a physical device with a tester to cover our used browsers."
"Overall, this solution has proved useful to our organization, and with future improvements and the hopeful addition of devices, it will continue to be a tool we use daily."
"The most valuable feature is that it gives us real OS devices that are available to test, and we don't have to ensure that all of the devices are up to date."
"It was the perfect solution that saved us time and money to perform web viewing tests on real devices, which allowed our team to correct multiple failures in devices."
"We use the solution for automation testing and monitoring."
"Our test execution time was reduced to 16 mins from five hours when executed in parallel on multiple VMs. This has been extremely helpful!"
"It provides 2000+ browser-OS-resolution combinations to work with, which is perfect for our consulting firm, as we don't know what our clients may need."
"LambdaTest is easy to use, and the documentation provides all the needed information."
"LambdaTest has helped me gain more customers."
"Geolocation testing is as straightforward as ticking checkboxes of browsers, operating systems, and countries."
"LambdaTest has made our testing process less tedious with automated parallel testing."
"LambdaTest supports multiple platforms like iOS across different devices and enables real-time testing."
 

Cons

"This solution would benefit from faster testing and support for more devices."
"I have experienced some lagging issues, and it does not seem like all of the testing environments are configured the same."
"Elements of 'real' mobile/tablet testing could be sped up, as I still sometimes experience lag, which no one loves."
"There should be more detailed training on CrossBrowserTesting."
"Sometimes the testing is slow."
"The five minute timeouts can cause irritation if you have just popped away to consult some supporting documentation."
"A wider range of physical devices with more browser versions in the Selenium Grid would be great to insure users with out-of-date devices are able to interact with our sites."
"The "Getting Started" documentation for Selenium testing could be improved."
"For us, Cypress! It looks like the support for Cypress is not there."
"You cannot perform native-app testing, as they offer simulation for web testing only."
"The scalability is good with Amazon, but IBM had some issues."
"I feel that the automated screenshot testing takes a little longer on MacOS sometimes."
"The analytics over the automation dashboard can be more intuitive."
"I think Lambdatest is a valuable tool for our team and things that have room for improvement would be mobile app testing, as it can be an important addition to the tool."
"I didn't like the solution's technical support and how they communicated and tried to fix the issues of customers like me."
"The execution reporting can be improved for better integration between automation execution and accessibility platform reporting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"SmartBear offers bundles of products that work together."
"The lowest price point is very reasonable. It is also useful if only one person in the company needs to check on the browser display."
"CrossBrowserTesting offered the best value for its price."
"A few intermediary pricing options for small QA teams would be nice, e.g., unlimited screenshots, "as you need it" parallel tests, etc."
"It is worth the pricing as the product is supported on multiple platforms and browsers."
"The tool is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"The product can be described as an averagely-priced solution."
"I used the product for free."
"LambdaTest is priced well, which is why we migrated to it."
"The pricing could be made cheaper."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
"It is 60% cheaper and there is no fuss in maintaining the lab, so we have more time to do the testing."
