HZ
Lead Systems Tester at Government of Ontario, Canada
Reliable test automation, and test data creation with efficient support
The solution can be improved by removing the need for object matching in the framework. The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run. The reason is that changes were made to how it works with the browser and the startup takes some time. Adjusting those changes to speed up the load time will improve the solution.
KK
Practice Specialist at a government with 1-10 employees
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

"It is compatible with all sorts of Dark Net applications. Its coverage is very good."
"It is 100% compatible with all sorts of database integrations and is compatible with all types of open source TFT-based applications, which makes it a great product to have."
"The most valuable feature is the UI component tester."
"As it is built on Ellipse/Java and costs less than other tools, it is recommended."
"It helps in automation by using better object recognition as compared to other tools in the market."
"Robust API provides quick turnaround for developers to understand and automate functional test case quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the UI component tester, which analyzes the changes in UI elements and allows me to automatically adapt and change my automation testing."
"Test automation is most valuable because it saves a lot of time."
"The most valuable feature is the real-time testing, which helps you to test your website on more than two thousand combinations of browsers and operating systems."
"Without a doubt, LambdaTest is one of the big reasons behind our faster deployment and better team collaboration."
"This product offers out-of-the-box geolocation testing in automation, which is amazing!"
"In case something goes wrong at LambdaTest end, the Support team is extremely responsive to analyze any platform-related issues."
"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!"
"The solution is very easy to understand and has a user-friendly UI."
"The Docker tunnel integration for local testing can be extremely useful to run on multiple instances in parallel."
 

Cons

"The latest version has increased load time before testing can be run."
"The object repository used for identifying objects can be made better. It has been noticed that the RFT tool is unable to identify some objects, due to which we are unable to add them to the object repository."
"With version 8.5 we faced workspace crash issues frequently."
"If the solution is running on Linux, there are some issues around application compatibility."
"If in the future there is no support for mobile applications, then we will be using it less."
"It does not fully justify being a paid tool, and it needs improvement."
"They need to do a complete revamp so that even a non-technical person can manage the tool."
"As many of our products are moving from PC to mobile, the most important thing that this solution needs is mobile app support."
"The downsides I noticed include that the pricing was very good, but the visual quality of the image sometimes suffers."
"We get logged out of the devices if there is some inactivity."
"Sometimes, when multiple users use the tool simultaneously, it can slow down, affecting efficiency."
"The tool can improve its testing speed. Changing or switching to another mobile phone can be very slow on a real device."
"If possible to simulate the finger pinch, it would make it more realistic."
"I would like to see all of the features available in the freemium plan so that I can test them."
"LambdaTest needs to improve its speed and memory because it takes a long time to load."
"The execution reporting can be improved for better integration between automation execution and accessibility platform reporting."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing could be made cheaper."
"LambdaTest is priced well, which is why we migrated to it."
"LambdaTest is on the cloud, offers both free and paid plans which start at $19 USD per month."
"It is affordable as compared to similar SaaS solutions."
"The tool is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"This is an affordable product."
"It is 60% cheaper and there is no fuss in maintaining the lab, so we have more time to do the testing."
"LambdaTest's pricing is cheaper than that of other similar platforms."
