Transparent Pricing and Good Value
What do you like best about the product?
Browserstack for us was one of many options to run our automated e2e tests. They by far are the most transparent in thier pricing and most reasonable in terms of the value for dollar spent (Compare to circle, ADF, saucelabs, etc) It also runs the tests in our last comparison in half the time they take to run on circle. I also like that it's an easy ramp for product managers to do manual testing on a lot of different devices visually instead of taking QA resources to hand hold or train on emulators. In most automation frameworks using browserstack is plug and play.
What do you dislike about the product?
We aren't using enough of thier capabilities to really have complaints, perhaps longer result storage or an easy way to support long term data storage of test runs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We run our automated e2e tests daily on physical devices. This is helping us prepare for CI/CD in the future, and in the short term we can investigate failures before the final release cut.
Principal software engineering using BrowserStack as main source for testing automation solution
What do you like best about the product?
1. Automate tools - In the project we are working on, we need to have reliable and easy to use tools to help with the automation developing process. We find the Automate tools for real mobile device from BrowserStack quite helpful not only for dev but also for debugging.
2. Availability of the real devices from BrowserStack cloud - in our automation developing, we don't need to worry about if devices are available or ready for use which is super helpful and take lots of concerns and initial setting up work load off the engineers so we can focus on the business and what really matters to the purpose.
3. Tech documentations - at the beginning of the integration, the documentation quality and accuracy would impact the effeicency a lot. We found the documentations are helpful overall.
4. Having specific account manager we can reach out - when we have issues, by having one person we know we always can reach out and get response is critical. Sometimes we get frustrated by told to reach out to Customer Support email or line which rarely get response in time. Or the response usually isn't that helpful.

What do you dislike about the product?
Here are a few pain points based on the current project and experience:
1. In our mobile automation, we see performance difference between iOS and Android phones. In general, Android phones are much faster in terms of refreshing pages with push notificaiton, but it usually has a long delay on the iPhones. We have to write certain code specifially to handle the performance issues to run the tests on iPhones - which in my opinion should never be the case.
2. iPhones from BrowserStack doesn't support Push testing unless with an enterprise licence. I understand this is based off the limitations of Apple, etc. But the reality is our team needs to look for alternative solutions other than BrowserStack to achieve this goal. We really wish to continue using BrowserStack as device solution and even expand to broader areas.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real device availability and testability
Comprehensive product for enhancing quality
What do you like best about the product?
I like the comprehensive coverage the tool provides on cross browser, test management tools, accessibility
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything I don't like about BrowserStack
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Corss Broswer and platform testing
Browser Stack Review
What do you like best about the product?
Able to use on desktop and ease of use on desktop
What do you dislike about the product?
The tool slow response time and timeout.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Browserstack enables my team to simulate mobile testing on desktop which made it easier to see than mobile device
A great testing tool
What do you like best about the product?
The number of actual devices you can use, with combinations of OS and browser, it really does what it says on the tin. You don't need a mass of knowledge of technical things (although we generally do) and can get going in just a few clicks.
What do you dislike about the product?
It isn't a downside as such, but the ability to upload an APK or Test flight on a device would be a boon (unless I've missed it, there's a lot of options!)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The console/browser based screen resizing can only show you so much, and we only have a limited budget for buying real devices to test on, so having the ability to use so many devices is amazing. Also, even if we had all the devices we needed to use, there's so much overhead to recording or screenshots and then sending them to tickets and evidence folders, being able to have all that come from one place is great.
Very Impressed with BrowserStack
What do you like best about the product?
real devices in real time. manual and automated testing available on live devices.
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes we get errors that are browserstack specific and do not occur on real devices.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
test on real devices.
my go-to solution for effortless cross-browser testing
What do you like best about the product?
For me personally, it has been really helpful in testing out applications of multiple and different types of devices
What do you dislike about the product?
Its pricing plans are great for teams and organsation but when it comes to individual user, i found it a bit on the expensive side
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Browserstack is most beneficial for solving parallel test execution on multiple devices. It has benefited me and my team since we have web, desktop and mobile app for our product. It allows us verify same test cases on different types and version of devices and operating systems
Make things easy and modularity
What do you like best about the product?
- As it allows multiple things to test easily.
- Not require to much things setup.
- Allows to test multiple kind of testcases, like geo, etc

What do you dislike about the product?
- Sometimes it's hard to find the required option from the all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It major is the setup and maintainence of the testing environment.
Emulator best alternative
What do you like best about the product?
We can now test our mobile apps and webapps on several other devices and browsers. Its live and App Live features enables us to perform manual testing on number of devices and browsers on single dashboard.
It is more accurate then any emulator as they say they offers us the real devices to test on.
Apart from Manual testing we can also write our test case and manage it from Browserstack itself which make testing process very seamless.

What do you dislike about the product?
While opening any app on App Live it took long time to setup and open the device whereas for launching browser it works perfectly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using its App Live and Live feature for manual testing. When we have limited physical real devices we use browserstack to overcome this problem. Now our team can test apps on any platform whether it is Android or iOS without physically owing them.
Automation testing made easy
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about browserstack is that we dont have to worry about number of emulators to test our scripts. We just need to change device configuration on our script and we are good to go to run script on number of devices without any hassle.
Browserstack provides detailed document on how to use browserstack for your scripts. It Also support almost every automation framework such as Playwright, Selenium and many more.

What do you dislike about the product?
It should also give some feature to test api also. For APi we have to again swithc to different platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Browstack to test our mobile apps and web browser on different devices and browsers. It gives us freedom to test and make our product reliable on every or most used devices and browser.
