User Testimonials
	Cucumber Open	Katalon Studio
Likelihood to Recommend	SmartBear No answers on this topic	Katalon Inc Free trial version is fine but you don't get the adequate support and VFM for the licensed version. Customer service needs to be improved a lot and any QA's with less technical background or less time to troubleshoot issues in the software on their own would find it difficult to use.

Cons	SmartBear No answers on this topic	Katalon Inc Katalon Studio supports only grovvy language for now. It will be nice to see support for other scripting languages. Performance issues; sudden crash of the tool. Debug button is provided only to licensed owner since Katalon 7+ version. New tool, few resources available to learn. So there is a mild learning curve here. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
