Score 6.9 out of 10

Based on 219 reviews and ratings

Pros

The UI is pretty clean and easy to navigate, at first glance we were able to figure out.
As said the choices of browsers are massive and responsive testing becomes easy.
Integrations and convenience are the win points here.
Free to start, which means you can actually see how it works and then take the decision to buy.

Incredibly cheap.
The service is outstanding. They provide me with the combinations of browsers/platforms that make it easy for me to do my job.
Sauce Labs accelerates and optimizes the tests by running them through console logs, metadata, and Selenium with complete lists of compatible commands.

Cons

I'll recommend them to provide access to multiple users at the same time for the same virtual machine.
When I switched between the versions of the browser, the session expires and sometimes it feels lousy.
If I do not consider above two, I don't think there is a room for improvement.

Cost: it's a little bit pricey, but I don't pay the bill so I'm not complaining too much there. Overall, I'd say the price isn't ridiculous but it's not inexpensive.
Logs: I don't find their logs very useful for front-end web tests, I usually refer to my own logs if I have a bug/issue/error that needs investigation.

Sauce Labs 8.3

Based on 16 answers

Sauce Labs has become an integral part of our entire continuous delivery pipeline. Our architectural vision for CI/CD simply would not be possible without Sauce Labs given the resource constraints our company has to develop and maintain a solution such as this internally.

Sauce Labs 7.9

Based on 13 answers

I think Sauce Labs is great and I've been using them since late 2014. With that said, I'm very used to how their interface works and how to get what I need. I think if a brand new user would come in and use it, it would still be easy, but maybe not as easy as it is for me. That's why I rate this area a 9 instead of a 10. Still great though!

Sauce Labs 9.0

Based on 6 answers

Outages with the virtual machine services or the Sauce Connect Proxy service are more frequent than would be ideal, but updates to resolutions are communicated frequently, and resolutions usually come quick.

Sauce Labs 9.0

Based on 6 answers

The execution of automated tests in Sauce Labs virtual machines is slightly slower than its main competition. Furthermore, the spin-up time of virtual machines (particularly device simulators or emulators) is significantly slower in our experience than its primary competition. The Sauce Connect Proxy further adds to performance decrease when used in our experience (around 10%-20% decrease when used), such that each call to the remote WebDriver instance in your test scripts can take upwards of 100-200 milliseconds.

Support Rating

LambdaTest 9.3

Based on 6 answers

The customer support team is very active and cooperative. Once, I contacted them in their off timings because of an issue, I got an instant reply from the executive and he resolved the issue very efficiently. This is why we have been using LambdaTest for more than two years. It is best suited for us.

Sauce Labs 6.9

Based on 23 answers

The support is good for Sauce Labs. It is hard to get an initial response but the support has cleared our issues with Sauce Labs. Sometimes we have to follow up and it's hard to get a hold of the team initially. Once we get a hold of the team, the issues are always resolved.

Sauce Labs 7.9

Based on 14 answers

I am not sure if it's my company that makes getting Sauce Labs integrated into the team difficult or is it Sauce Labs. The process for getting Sauce Labs for a project is quite a tedious process and the information for using Sauce Labs initially is quite lacking. There is little support for getting started

Alternatives Considered

Most of the time BrowserStack worked at a slower speed and it was more expensive for me. That's why I switched to LambdaTest and I have been using it for 2 years and happy with this. Secondly, LambdaTest has a higher number of integrations in comparison to BrowserStack.

We found Sauce Labs to be better in the following:1) Better selection of mobile devices (including all the new devices)2) Supports many CI tools like Jenkins, CircleCI3) Availability of test metricsWe also had a better experience using Sauce Labs overall. It was easy to create users in the application. It is also very easy to get your existing automated test suite running on Sauce Labs.

Sauce Labs 9.1

Based on 3 answers

The product is as scalable as your company's wallet can afford, since you are charged per unit of concurrency, where each new unit of concurrency represents another concurrent virtual machine you can spin up.

Return on Investment

It saved a lot of time because you don’t need to run different tools to check various features.
LambdaTest helped our team in managing and tracking bugs on websites.
Needs a single click for entering into virtual testing environment; it is very user friendly.

Sauce Labs is less expensive than setting up the same amount of OS/browser combinations locally
But real mobile devices are too expensive, so it's cheaper to buy and set it up locally
But overall it's still a good investment
