Reviewed on 10/12/2024

Pros

Large matrix of operating systems and browsers (all different versions, too) that can be used manually or automated for testing and regression testing.

Cons

Slightly complicated UI to setup your tests. Once your tests are setup, they are run automatically - and that works great.

Our team is quite happy with browser stack as it provides lot of features and helps us to perform a regular testing effectively. We rarely get UI related bug for our mobile apps as browser stack provides lot of devices with interface exactly as real device. Additionally reports/stats are pretty good for reporting to management. Loved the way it smoothly integrated with CI CD.

Pros

Best thing is performance & speed. It spins up a devices quite quickly. There is no lag unlike other apps. Additionally lot of devices are available, probably everything under a sun. I really liked a idea of adding a device and able to perform testing simultaneously on 2 devices.

Cons

I will personally like browser stack to have keep me signed in as max as app/website allows when I switch over devices or at least when I reuse same device/browser again.
Also while testing on ios mobile devices using test simulator, I need to enter apple id again & again which is bit irritating.

Will appreciate if user management screen can have ability to download the list of users

I am pleased with browserstack but think there are some improvements that can be made. When I reach out to my account manager about issues it takes a while for them to get back or they don't understand my issue. As well as not being happy about purchasing a tier for a product and then having those features taken away from me.

Pros

Accessibility to quickly jumpstart building a regression test suite from the ground up using low code automation.

The ease in which I can build and edit a test.

Test management is one of my favorite features, being able to store and look back on every manual test I have run is important in my industry as it is highly regulated.

Cons

I purchased the essentials tier for low code automation. The features available in that tier were then moved to the Pro tier once the product went live. I don't feel like that is the right thing to do to your loyal customers

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.

Cons

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.

Overall, my experience with BrowserStack has been very positive. Access to a variety of real devices has greatly improved my testing workflow, ensuring my applications work smoothly across different platforms. The setup was straightforward, and the support team has been responsive to my questions

Pros

What I liked most about BrowserStack is the ability to test on actual devices. The wide range of devices and browsers they offer ensures that I can catch issues that might only appear on specific setups. The interface is user-friendly, making it easy to navigate and run tests. Additionally, the performance is reliable, with minimal lag even when testing on high-demand devices.

Cons

The least favorable aspect of BrowserStack for me is the cost. It can get quite expensive, especially for small teams or individual developers. Also, sometimes the devices take a bit longer to become available during peak times, which can slow down the testing process.

I've been using BrowserStack for many years, and it's an imperative tool in web development or for viewing your website as others will see it across multiple devices.

Pros

When you work in web development, it's a necessary task to be able to view the websites you design on multiple formats such as phones, tablets, etc. Browserstack allows you to do this in one easy to use interface.

Cons

Occasionally, it takes some time for a specific version/phone model to load up to be ready to preview or it can get stuck.

Overall, BrowserStack has been a great tool for QA at my current job and I have used it consistently over the last 5+ years. I can't imagine going back to not using it, now that it has become such an integral part of my day-to-day work.

Pros

I like how it is all web-based and quickly connects to additional devices/browsers in order to test applications and web pages. It's very nice being able to officially support devices and browsers that you normally wouldn't have easy access to obtain or test against.

Cons

Some of the paid products have steep pricing models. There are also times where devices will just get stuck on a loading screen and don't officially boot-up which can get a little annoying when you are just wanting to quickly test something.

Pros

Cons

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.
