Incredibly useful for our mobile testing needs, including integrations
What is our primary use case?
For my project, we utilize a VPN and BrowserStack for testing. This allows me to test our website across various browsers and platforms, including different versions of iOS, Android, and web browsers. It ensures that our website functions correctly across different environments and devices.
How has it helped my organization?
BrowserStack has been incredibly useful for our mobile testing needs. One scenario where it proved its value was when I needed to test a new feature across different devices and platforms. I utilized BrowserStack's emulator with real devices feature, selecting specific devices such as iOS devices like the iPhone 14 with different versions like 16 or 17. I could easily switch between devices and versions to simulate real-world usage scenarios. This flexibility allowed me to thoroughly test our UI and ensure compatibility across various devices and browsers, providing a reliable testing environment even when facing connectivity issues.
What is most valuable?
I've also worked on testing integrations with BrowserStack, particularly with a platform called IT. This involves testing the registration process, including receiving verification codes on devices and phones. BrowserStack has been excellent for testing these integrations, providing a seamless workflow development experience. I've had positive experiences with various integrations on BrowserStack.
What needs improvement?
One of the challenges I've encountered with BrowserStack is related to connectivity issues. Occasionally, there are disruptions in the connection which can interfere with our testing processes, especially when testing on phones. Improving the connectivity stability would be beneficial for making BrowserStack an even better product in the next release, in my opinion.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using BrowserStack for almost 1 year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
In terms of stability, I would rate BrowserStack an eight out of ten, despite occasional connection issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
I would rate BrowserStack as a seven out of ten for scalability, indicating it's moderately scalable. Approximately ten users are working with BrowserStack in our company. There are no immediate plans to increase its usage.
How was the initial setup?
I would rate the initial setup of BrowserStack as an 8 out of 10, indicating that it's relatively easy to set up. The deployment process typically takes around one to two hours, although I'm not directly involved in the deployment steps.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
As for pricing, I can't provide a clear evaluation as I'm not directly involved in those discussions.
What other advice do I have?
I would recommend BrowserStack to other users as a helpful tool for testing across different browsers and versions, rating it a 9 out of 10.

I use the solution in my company for business transformation, specifically for IT business transformation projects where a customer wants to transfer their legacy applications to the cloud and modernize them using mobile apps. My company takes enterprise-level applications to the cloud.
What needs improvement?
I haven't seen AI in BrowserStack, making it in an area where improvements are required in the product. Accessibility testing is an area of concern where improvements are required.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using BrowserStack for five years. I am a user of the tool.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Earlier, my company used to use Keynote Device Anywhere and OpenDev. My company moved from our previous products to BrowserStack since a lot of people use it. My company also found BrowserStack to have a lot of advantages over our previous tools.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was not very difficult.
The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My company found the product's license to be very compatible with our budget, and we pay 5,000 to 10,000 per year for licenses.
What other advice do I have?
I integrated BrowserStack into our company's web and application test workflows because it has plugins that work with browsers and applications, allowing for cross-browser testing.
BrowserStack was really helpful for cross-browser testing in areas involving mobiles, web applications, or tablets. The tool can help with the testing across all applications.
I have not experienced any time-saving feature from the use of the tool.
My company uses the product for real-device testing since it has a bunch of devices in our library. My company has a repository where we do manual testing.
BrowserStack improved the quality of our company's applications.
Improvements I have seen with the testing part revolve around the fact that it is able to do testing at a fast pace. The quality of the product is better since it can go through all the parts of the applications, meaning it can provide high test coverage. The tool is also good in the area of automation. The test coverage is higher, and the time taken during the testing phase is less due to automation.
I have not used the product's integration capabilities since my company doesn't have the option to look at other QA testing tools like Selenium, which can be used for the automation capabilities provided.
The product should offer more support for cross-browser testing, device testing, and testing across multiple devices.
I rate the tool an eight out of ten.
