(1-25 of 93)BrowserStack Review
While using the BrowserStack we solve one of the biggest problem we were facing that is we are getting everything means every browser at single place and that is more feasible for us To use it.
- Helpful to get all devices at one place
- I can work on different devices for automation at same time
- I can work and test the feature on the uncoming version of the devices
- Sometimes we need more users to use it but BrowserStack has limitations.
- It is very dependable on the size of the device.
- It shoulb be more focused towards the smooth use.
Working on different devices sometime it will cause issues as to switch from one device to other is very difficult in BrowserStack.
Seamless Cross-Browser Compatibility Testing Tool
- It provides multiple devices like phones, tablets, and desktops as real devices for testing the websites.
- It also supports parallel testing so that the website can be tested on more than 1 device at a time.
- The test session can be recorded and the screenshot can be captured for marking or recording the bugs found during testing.
- The improvement can be made in pricing transparency.
- Response or feedback speed is sometimes slow when we are connected to a network from which many users are connected.
- Touch gestures can be improved for testing on mobile.
A solid product for those in need of automation and MORE devices
- CI/CD integration for automated testing
- Plenty of Documentation for implementing virtually any test scenario
- Good Variety of devices, Operating Systems and Operating Systems Version
- The UI can for Live - Desktop/Mobile can appear slow but it works nonetheless
- visual regression testing
- automation
- testing
- Percy UI hasn't changed in years, too basic
- Some bugs reported to Percy/Browserstack
The Percy UI hasn't changed in years mostly. There's a lot of features I feel that could be implemented. Like identifying when a visual regression occurred, or flakiness of a snapshot first occurred. It feels like Percy doesn't get the love it needs, both in terms of UI, backend and CLI.
Browserstack review

An Efficient and Reliable Visual Testing Tool.
- Percy for visual testing.
- Percy's integration with our development workflow.
- The dashboard presents visual changes systematically.
- Percy can be on the pricier side.
Good for cross browser testing and parrallel automation run
- parallel execution
- Many of platforms for testing
- Well integration with Selenium and Cypress
- Manual testing
- Easy to use and fast
- They can reduce the cost
- More flexible plans can be introduced
- Support team needs to be aware more technical things

BrowserStack helping Mobile designers and developers
Developers used the BroswerStack to apply the designs for mobile devices having iOS and Android Operating Systems.
There is no any good tool, that helps to apply the mobile design on-live. BS is the best option available.
Only challenge with BS is sometimes it becomes very slow. Otherwise BS is best tool for developing and testing the mobile changes.
- Availability of several options for doing the tests
- Having the several test cases available
- Mobile testing, it gives you several devices which are available in the market
- When Testing the mobile devices, the BrowserStack tool gets hanged abruptly
- When the user uses BS for testing there it leads to a lag in response
- Switching between the devices, sometimes, is not userfriendly
Also, one can find the older devices too, to use them for testing.
A great product for testing on all your devices all in one place.
- 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
Difficult to test with limited internet access and with sensitive data and also the complex desktop applications are hard to test
It's our go-to tool for testing!
- Allows you to test mutiple browsers
- Allows you to test multiple devices
- Allows you to change between resolutions easily
- I experience some lag sometimes
- It takes a bit of time to load each device
- Test iOS, Android devices with wide range of sizes and models.
- Cross-browser testing .
- Local Environment testing.
- End-to-End testing.
- Automate Mobile test cases
- Require more user friendly documentation.
- Some times speed issues with some devices.
- Multiple devices and browsers to choose from
- Fairly fast and responsive
- Least downtime
- System or device availability
- Performance
- Reduce latency
- Help with more data points for test automation tools
- Be able to seamlessly setup multiple non prod environments and have different images/ builds
I love BrowserStack So Much I'd Actually Like to Move to India and Work with Them, and Here's Why:
Together with Diana Pinasco as the fabulous designer she is, we work on a new version each year and need to test the results in browsers of all kinds and sizes. This year's website needed extra testing as both design and user experience changed quite a bit, we added the possibility to choose dark or light mode at will, changed the way the menu works, and had new colors, structures, and layouts. I used BrowserStack to test the site in all flavors of mobile devices browsers, and desktops, and it was awesome as always. The site is quite bulletproof and battle-tested since 2001, though the first versions were done in, believe it, Flash Actionscript.
I remember the first time using BrowserStack as a decisive and defining moment when the responsive design really took off, and much more work than now. This time I had a lot to check for new things, but it all seemed to all work right mostly. I do have to sincerely recommend BrowserStack's live testing, I doubt there's something better around.
- Realtime live testing at super speed as if you were there
- Perfect customer service
- Superb device variety of choice
- Feature abundance
- Lots of automated testing that I didn't need but I'm hoping to use one day
- Perfect price
- It may help to show the IP address of the device, as I had to configure access and needed to check the ip on each device for a while. Though it's possibly a fringe case, I guess, there are better, simpler ways than adding IPs to provide access as I had to.
- Automation testing.
- Web application testing.
- Documentation with examples.
- Testing on iOS, Safari and iPad form a Windows desktop in chrome
- Performance with data centre nearby in Australia
- Continuous innovation and new features and timely updates of new browsers versions and OS
- Timely support and help remotely

great cross browser testing tool
- Cross browser testing
- mobile device testing
- visual testing using percy.io
- support with preprod environment test execution with cypress
- the reporting can be improved
- dashboard to view all the projects different test execution
BrowserStack FTW
- The use of hundreds of ready-to-use devices
- The use of several key OS across multiple popular brands
- The use of versioning across several devices of those key brands
- The newest OS and models of devices are readily available
- Overall performance of usability of the device
- Overheating conditions could be a useful feature to be included
- Downloading the app to the Home screen for quick selection would be helpful
- Screen orientation feature
- Tablets for additional devices to be tested against
- Add in a feature to test against wearables
A couple of areas BrowserStack isn't as appropriate would be the limited options it has for interacting with devices such as multi-touch and gestures. Test scenarios that include sensors such as NFC/Bluetooth or battery consumption are often hard to test in the cloud.
- Large amount of physical devices to test on.
- Local environment testing.
- Support for teams.
- The product is wonderful but the cost is a bit high for some people I talk to.
- Input lag could be improved.
- When opening dev tools the device view sometimes gets pushed off screen.
- Cross Browser Testing
- Latest Real Device
- newly implemented Accessibility testing
- Percy for UI testin
- Drag and Drop Functionality not available in devices
- Some times mismatch happening in real device and BrowserStack Devices
- Application speed can be increase
BrowserStack less appropriate in all device Drag and drop functionality is not working that alone need to be update.
Fantastic customer service and a great product!
- Huge selection of devices to test with
- Great user interface
- Testing on real devices was sometimes a bit slow
Testing infrastructure over cloud
- Many Devices and Browser options to choose.
- Great support for new and upcoming devices and iOS versions
- Great capability around KPI
- Accessibility testing tools
- Support for old iOS devices like iPhone SE
Easy and Useful
- Latest versions of the apps can be uploaded and tested. Extremely easy process.
- Get error details whenever there is any error encountered.
- App can be tested on multiple devices with different screen sizes and different OS.
- There should not be any session disconnects. And if there are any, then session should start from the same spot where it got disconnected.
- Sometimes there are some lags while browsing. Though it is rare and it gets fixed soon. But that is something that can be improved.
