Overall Satisfaction with BrowserStack

In my organization BrowserStack is mostly use for testing purpose, within my team it is used for both android as well as iOS app testing. We do manual app testing on emulators and real devices provided by Browserstack. It has a very wide range of Android devices with different screen sizes and OS versions to cover all testing scenarios.

Pros

  • It has very wide range of mobile devices available for testing, real devices from all major manufacturer like Samsung, pixel, vivo etc are available on BrowseStack.
  • We can simulate real world scenario of different network conditions like 2G, 3G, 4G, or 5G internet connecting, making testing more reliable and realistic
  • Uploading apk files or aab files on BrowserStack is very easy, the user interface is easy to understand

Cons

  • There is some latency while using the Android and iOS devices, the interaction with the mobile devices has a delay of few milliseconds which feels while doing rigorous testing
  • BrowserStack lack advanced debugging features, though we have the logs and can see the network calls, but advance features like layout inspector or adding breakpoints on debuggable app builds are missing
  • Pricing is little high for big team size and more number of parallel sessions.
  • BrowserStack has helped in making the release cycles faster, as it has wide range of devices it makes the process of regression testing on multiple devices faster and saves time.
  • It has feature of shared access of same devices and logs to both QA and developer thus making the process of debugging a lot easier.
  • Because of BrowserStack we dont need to have large number of real devices in house. Hence it saves a lot of cost.

Do you think BrowserStack delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with BrowserStack's feature set?

Yes

Did BrowserStack live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of BrowserStack go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy BrowserStack again?

Yes

BrowserStack is very well suited when we need to test our app for different devices of different screen sizes and OS versions. As it provides a wide range of real world devices, testing becomes cost effective. But it is not suited for scenarios where you have to test for very long hours, as it is on browser only you may lose connection to the device. It also lacks advance debugging features.
