Find out what your peers are saying about Tricentis, OpenText, Katalon Studio and others in Regression Testing Tools."The solution helps with recording and documentation."
"Provides better monitoring for testing campaigns and business process testing."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to copy the scenarios and as we do a rollout we can efficiently complete test three and put it somewhere else under a new subsidiary."
"The initial setup was not complex and the product itself is very easy to configure and use."
"It is easy for business users to use who are not familiar with testing tools."
"Test migration from HPE are done automatically. We can extract our tests from HPE, and they convert it into the Panaya format."
"The test repository to follow the test progress is most valuable because we can easily create and manage a huge number of test scripts. We can copy and paste, replicate, and drag and drop many tests scripts. We can create test scripts en masse. When you have a high volume of tests, the tool is quite useful. It works well when you want to manage a lot of tests, such as you have 1,000 or more test scripts."
"The product enables codeless automation."
"We have to automate thousands of test cases and complete end-to-end SAP on business processes. To manually execute these tasks, it would take us at least two months. By automating these tasks using Tosca, now it takes five to 10 days maximum. Tricentis Tosca is a codeless or scriptless automation tool."
"Multiple scanning engines to automate many different applications."
"With one click, it will scan all the elements on the screen, so that the user can select the required elements for automation tests."
"This tool is very easy to use and I think that anyone can come in, having no experience with it, and within four to six months be comfortable with it."
"We like the fact that it works across mobile, desktop, web, and APIs. Due to this, the solution has a broad range of applications."
"The feature that I have found the most valuable is the recovery and cleanup process. Suppose there is a list of test cases and one test case has failed, it should not impact the other test cases. We can reuse the same test case. We can change the configuration of parameters and then use the test cases on the same thing. So, that's a useful thing. Otherwise, we have to use the cleanup process. Another useful feature is to have our own library files. We can create our objects in the libraries and reuse them. There is no need to create duplicate data for that. They have been giving some enhancements recently which means integration is also there. They've integrated with different software like Jenkins, Bamboo. So, we can also create pipeline points. They have recently given SAP and everything, which is very useful."
"The low code is the best feature."
"It would be nice to be able to test offline. What I mean by that is today most of the time things are in the cloud, but sometimes when we are in factories and we do not have network access and we should be able to download a test script into our PCs and do the test offline. Once that is complete we can re-upload it when we have a network connection."
"The setup of Panaya Recorder is a bit complex. Panaya is a SaaS application, but you need to install some components on your computer. You need to set up your computer to allow Panaya Recorder to work. There are five or six things to do each time you install Panaya for any user. If you miss something, Panaya Recorder doesn't work. So, it is complex to install."
"Nothing is automatic."
"Support is reactive and in English only."
"They provide options for custom fields or tabs, but customization of workflows would be great."
"The solution is expensive."
"I would like to see better integration with other testing tools."
"Setup wasn't that straightforward; it was more complex. It all depends on the environment, because there were a lot of errors on our applications. Therefore, it wasn't an easy setup for us."
"It is quite difficult to integrate the solution with other tools."
"There should be ease of data manipulation within automation test cases."
"The integration with mobile testing could be useful."
"There have been some setbacks because of upgrades. While Tosca has been around for a while, Tricentis has catered to smaller clients and I don't think they have done such a large, at-scale transition or transformation before or worked with a company like ours, which is doing an enterprise-wide transformation. When we go to their customer advisory-board meetings, upgrades have been an issue. They have been working a lot to make upgrades seamless."
"It requires some coding customization that requires expertise."

@Jesús Antonio Santos Giraldo; both companies deliver excellent tools & services. It's going to come down to your use cases.
If you choose the wrong tool for your use case the risks are: Loss of time, money and opportunities. That's not going to be the tool's fault.
Tips that may help you in deciding:
- Use your current tools / last tools as benchmark to determine your future needs.
- Ask questions, here are a few to get you started:
-- What are your requirements?
-- Pros and cons of our current tools.
-- How much time do you want to spend developing and maintaining test scripts (assuming you want to automate)
--Who will work with the tool?
-- What do they have to say about their experience with current / past tools?
- Build a matrix based on feedback received, decide which points really matter in your matrix.
- Inform your org of the research you've done and ask for more input
- Go with a few key folks who work with / worked with the tools you are targeting and have a meeting with Tricentis / Panaya.
- Tell your story and ask how their tool can meet your need.
- Go back to your leadership and share what you learned,
- See if you can get a trial from the toolmakers. ;-) and try out a real world test.
- Make a documented decision on why tool X and not tool Y
