BrowserStack Reviews

Wide Range of Devices available for every category like Android, IOS & Windows Platform
Has a number of integrations
run several parallel test cases at one time

Can have more training videos
would be great if someone from browserstack can help in the implementation

UI is very initiative, and ux us very sumple

performance especcialy on videos and controls buttons

Accessibility, features, support. Great service, does what we needed. After exploring other options for live testing apps on varied devices, BrowserStack was the clear winner.

Pricing a little high for this service, but we only used limited features. Would be nice to have pay-as-you go for app testing services rather than monthly subscription.

It is a perfect application for web application testing. It has so many options. It is a one place solution.

Mobile application testing is little challenging as sometimes it is working perfectly on BrowserStack but not on real device. Also 2nd con what I observed is the pricing which is bit higher side.

Its very User Friendly. We can use all Current Windows and Mac OS with so many combination of resolution. And mostly all majorly used iOS and Android devices also available. Bug Raising we can take Screenshot and inbuild we can raise issues.

Some of the Features are not available in Browser Stack like Drag and Drop Functionality for Devices, Some of the Pointer functionality will not work in Browserstack.

It is a very mature system with a lot of powerful features.

Due to the age of the architecture, there are performance issues. And the approach requiring multiple IP addresses which needed to be white listed, and constantly changed were a major nuisance.

BrowserStack has strong after sales support and continuously evolving as per trends and bringing the features needed for QA community.

They can improve on boot time for Real Mobile devices for enhanced customer experience and Network Logs analyser could be better as compared to other product offerings.

Simple automated test creation
No test infrastructure maintenance
Automatically record test execution
Self-healing tests

UI can be slightly improved, can improve training.

I have been utilizing Browserstack for the past four years and have been consistently impressed with the comprehensive suite of modules it offers. The Live module, in particular, has proven to be an invaluable asset, enabling me to effectively address my clients' needs. Furthermore, the robust security measures implemented by Browserstack instill confidence in my clients, ensuring the utmost privacy and protection of sensitive data.

I have not yet identified any vulnerabilities yet.

Wide range of mobile devices and browsers will help to cover manual and automation testing easily.

Latest devices with OS updates are launching immediately helping teams to check apps up to date.

Developer options and logs helping dev team to check the issues with ease.

Network stimulation,Locale testing etc features helps team to mimic real user scenarios easily.

The apps for testing can Integrate easily by uploading or integration with appecenter or other platforms.

A proper stable network connection is must .Otherwise will feel laggy and will not get a smoother experience.

There are restrictions is accessing the settings menu for phones.So making changes from settings level and testing will be difficult.

Each time all the sessions will get reset.So will not get a continuous testing experience it may take more time to start from the scratch some times.

Browserstack make life of QA easier, compatibility testing was never easy but with browserstack we can get results in few minutes after deployment which results in faster deployment cycles. Another thing about browserstack is there customer support they schedule a call every two weeks with our team to know the challenges which we are facing.

Nothing as per se, they could improve automation capabilities

I found BrowserStack incredibly beneficial due to its easy access to a wide range of devices for both Android and iOS platforms. As a developer, having seamless access to multiple devices directly from my browser significantly streamlines my testing process. This accessibility ensures that I can efficiently test and debug applications across various devices without the need for physical hardware, saving both time and resources. BrowserStack's intuitive interface and extensive device coverage make it an indispensable tool in my development toolkit.

One of the drawbacks I experienced with BrowserStack is the need to repeatedly log in to the app stores, particularly when a session expires. This can be somewhat inconvenient, especially during longer testing sessions where frequent logins interrupt the workflow. It would be more efficient if there was an option to maintain these credentials securely over multiple sessions or at least extend the session duration to reduce the number of logins required. Despite this, the overall benefits of the platform still outweigh this minor inconvenience.

1. We can able to enable the Developer tools to observe the failures in network calls.
For example: I am launching the web URL in Safari/Chrome Browser and for some reason, if it is getting failed means there I can able to enable the Developer tools and able to verify the failure calls.

2. We can able to do local testing by installing BrowserStackLocal.msi. There we can test our web applications in local also. I personally love this feature.

3. We can also do Accessibility testing. I have did this and it is working as expected.

4. We can able to do Selenium automation for browser validations. It gives confident to both QA and Dev about the application stability and also we can ensure that all functionalities are working fine as we do testing in REAL devices.

1. Sometimes we can slowness and rendering while we do testing.
2. I found some some difficulties in setting up the local setup while testing.

It provides very accurate results as compared to real devices and is usable.

No cons felt till the date and highly recommended to everyone.

What I like the most is it gives us real-time and multiple device options also live testing on an ios emulator, and can easily check by changing the location and rotating the devices, Accessibility testing, Also automation testing so helpful

Location is very less also on Mac OS animation doesn't work properly n very slow.

The Test Runs are well done, organized and contains a lot of good data available to track the progress of the run.

There are some things that could be improved on Test Management, like a button for copying a test case to the same folder and the possibility to drag and drop folders to reorganize the structure. There is also a few bugs, like when you click on edit folder name and select the current name using the cursor and the pop up window closes.

What I like is to be able to realize my QA testing in mutiple devices and different versions etc without having a hard time to get physical devices to do it, so Browserstack helps me a lot!

Input lag sometimes but this is common when it comes to streaming.
