Overall Satisfaction with BrowserStack

I use BrowserStack to test my application in different devices and browser versions to ensure the compatibility of our solution. This greater coverage of testing is a great factor in appealing to the client to the fact that we take the service seriously and the users and their technology needs personally.
  • Great variety of devices
  • Many versions of the each device with different browsers
  • Best part is the devices are real.
  • Something could be done about costing, probably let users select the range of devices and tailor the cost of the application accordingly
  • there is a bit of latency which is understandable, but that can be a room for improvement
  • provide option for teams of 4 people and price the app correspondingly
  • Multiple browsers
  • Multiple devices
  • Real devices and not just simulators
  • Improved test coverage
  • Better test plan with more detail on the scope
  • More chance to fund the defects in compatibility testing.
This is the area in which i believe Browser stacks could improve, With complex systems, the latency and load times can be improved. As with the exisiting application, things load a bit slower and not sure how well the data is protected, so i do not go ahead and test really complex application or sensitive information in the BrowserStacks.
Earlier bugs and bugs in environments earlier means less cost in fixing. Since most simulators are just that, simulators, there is some degree of connectivity missing, ive had some tests pass in the simulators and fail in real devices and such incidences are really mitigated using the Browserstacks. Definitely reduced cost to fix bugs is an advantage realised
More devices, more browsers, more versions and real devices are all advantages over the LambdaTest.
