Overall Satisfaction with BrowserStack

For me and my team, we do have conversations with BrowserStack team for any queries/suggestions/pocs and I appreciate their help providing us quick solutions for our problems.

I have used Saucelabs with Jenkins and would say both of them are really comprehensive.

BrowserStack support team is another reason behind why I choose BrowserStack over other brands.
