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."
"We like the model device factory for iOS and Android devices."
"Testing across devices and browsers without maintaining that inventory is invaluable."
"It is a stable solution. There's no lagging and jittering."
"I have found that BrowserStack is stable."
"The most valuable feature of BrowserStack is the ability to do manual testing."

"The solution is mainly stable."
"The most valuable features of the SmartBear TestComplete are self-healing, they reduce the maintenance required. The different languages SmartBear TestComplete supports are good because some of our libraries are written in Python, JavaScript, and C#. It's very easy to put them all under one project and use them. The are other features that SmartBear TestComplete has but the competition widely has them as well."
"There is some stability issue in the product, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"While I was testing I was not 100% sure a that was properly mimicking the browsers or not. We had some issues with a browser, and the reason was the browser itself does not provide any support. If the local system does not provide any support, I think this was the problem. There should be better integration with other solutions, such as JIRA."
"BrowserStack should work on its Internet connectivity although issues only occur occasionally."
"Sometimes BrowserStack is really slow and devices are not loading. it is really annoying and that's why we bought several newer devices because sometimes it's affecting us a lot."

"We are having difficulty with the payment system for the BrowserStack team, as they only accept credit cards and we are encountering some issues."
"I would like to see clearer visibility."
"Occasionally, there are disruptions in the connection which can interfere with our testing processes, especially when testing on phones."
"What is currently missing from this solution is better support for mobile testing."
"The initial setup of SmartBear TestComplete was complex."
"Stability issues occurred only when connecting to the SourceSafe. Sometimes, after getting the latest version, the tool hangs and it should be reopened in order to recover."
"The solution needs more training manuals or some form of online forum for learning. It needs more documentation."
"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."
"The integration tools could be better."
"There could be API interfaces with this tool."
"TestComplete gives support to do requests to a SOAP web service but has no support to do HTTP requests on Restful services."
