Sr. Quality Assurance Project Manager at a tech services company with 501-1,000 employees
Has supported faster test execution and increased flexibility while offering room to improve support responsiveness
Reducing the levels of support is something they could continue to improve. They tend to have an entry-level person that may not be as familiar with the product that fields the calls, which creates another day of delay to get to the level that's needed. This is a common practice across most companies where you call, you get the entry-level person, and then they work their way up to help screen calls so that they are more focused.

Testing automation solution that is scriptless and is competitively priced compared to other solutions
The best feature of this solution is the fact that it offers scriptless automation. You don't need to know how to code or program to use it. Within four weeks, my team was up and running. This was the shortest possible ramp-up that we completed in my entire career The integrations for this…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"There is a lot of flexibility and functionality in UFT."
"Has improved our organization by allowing us to obtain fast, detailed information about the behavior of our products and to supply this to the customer, enabling us to work together without the need for special programming knowledge."
"Our current project features more than a 1000 manual test cases, which took several days and resources to execute, and now the suite executes in six hours and less than two when run on multiple machines."
"Whereas, in UFT One, I like that our maintenance costs have been reduced by a lot because UFT One is using an artificial intelligence feature to identify objects visually."
"I find UFT One to be very good for thick clients, which are non-browser applications."
"UFT is the only technology that enabled us to actually automate our core application."
"The solution is in the top list for automatic functional testing."
"You get rid of manual testing, which is a huge improvement."
"Qualitia is a complete test automation tool where you can configure multiple test cases at once."
"The Qualitia technical support group is the best part of Qualitia."
"The best feature of this solution is the fact that it offers scriptless automation. You don't need to know how to code or program to use it."
 

Cons

"Getting it to interact with ALM nicely has been a challenge for us sometimes."
"The application can be buggy at times and takes up a lot of memory on your PC."
"I'd like to see UFT integrated more with some of the open source tools like Selenium, where web is involved."
"When debugging code in UFT, it would crash, freeze and hang a lot."
"This tool is good for programming experts."
"Sometimes it appears that UFT takes a while to open and sometimes will run slower than expected. Also, UFT uses a lot of memory."
"The product wasn't easy for developers to learn and pick up in the area revolving around scripting for automation, and there was a lot of resistance from developers, causing my company to rely on specialist resources."
"[Tech support is] not a 10 because what happens with some of our issues is that we might not get a patch quickly and we have to hold on to an application until we get a proper solution."
"Licensing and missing import/export functionality was a problem."
"When using team city to run offline packages, Press Keys do not work, thus giving errors."
"The integrations for this solutions could be improved, specifically for Slack."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no additional costs involved apart from the standard license."
"The price is reasonable."
"The tool's price is high."
"The price is only $3,000. I don't know how many QA analysts you would have in any given company. Probably no more than five or 10. So if it's a large corporation, it can easily afford $15,000 to $25,000. I don't see that being an issue."
"The price is one aspect that could be improved."
"It took about five years to break even. UFT is costly."
"OpenText UFT One is a very expensive solution."
"Compared to other products, the solution is very expensive."
"Pricing is on a higher end but the competition was even more expensive. With this considered, it is a competitive solution."
