Prakhar Goel - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr Test Lead at Emerson
Used for integration automation, user-based automation, and web automation
The solution's most valuable features are the drag-and-drop feature, keyword-driven approach, and reusability of the scripts. The solution has introduced a new feature that helps us identify objects we cannot normally identify. It gives you a fair idea of objects, resolving the object recognition issue. The solution can be used to perform different tests on different machines.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I used different solution afterwards and I can say there is no other product with such great flexibility."
"For us, the automated test farm of 20 virtual machines for execution, 20 TestComplete licenses and 20 automated testers are doing the job of 100 manual testers."
"Good test coverage through automation and provides unique solutions to most of the automation challenges (e.g. comparison of images)."
"This tool is very easy to use and very powerful."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"The ability to run a whole suite of tests automatically (which we did overnight)."
"The solution has a very nice interface."
"TestComplete is much more flexible, light, and easy to use."
"TestingWhiz is a low code, no code tool with integration facilities, such as with Jira, and can be used over the cloud."
 

Cons

"LoadComplete could be a little more user-friendly, but is still better than LoginVSI."
"In SmartBear TestComplete the integration with Jenkins could be easier. Additionally, some of the controls could have better customization options. For example, if a grid is used and it contains multiple controls within it, it can be a checkbox, radio button, or any kind of control, the way the Object Spy is operating currently there is a lot of room for improvement."
"Memory consumption Speed of interaction with controls Sets of prepared libraries like asserts Templates of tests from scratch"
"This tool is also very expensive compared to the similar tools in the market. Price needs to be affordable."
"The solution’s customer support should be improved."
"TestComplete had problems during long hours runs. In some cases it could crash without leaving any logs."
"TestComplete gives support to do requests to a SOAP web service but has no support to do HTTP requests on Restful services."
"The integration tools could be better."
"Some features need to be implemented based on customer customization requests, which are currently not available."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing costs are in the range of $1,000 to $3,000."
"The product is becoming more and more expensive."
"It comes with a high cost."
"The solution's pricing is too high."
"The price of SmartBear TestComplete could be less. The main challenge is when it comes to node-locked. They should use a subscription model, such as a monthly-based subscription or, a quarterly-based subscription. Their floating license is very expensive, and this high price should be reduced or provide, at a minimum, a subscription model."
"The pricing is a little above average — it could be lower."
"This is a pay-per-use service that is not expensive, and cost-efficient if you have a small team."
"SmartBear TestComplete is an expensive tool."
