Overall Satisfaction with BrowserStack
I use BrowserStack for testing on multiple devices. Instead of having to get physical devices, we do our testing on BrowserStack. As a remote based company it is not feasible to have physical devices for all testers and instead the organization went ahead with BrowserStack as it provides multiple devices to test on. It has a wide range of mobile devices in both Android and iOS. Also has a lot of previous versions to test on. For the Windows and MacOS devices, it is also possible to be tested. One of the best features that I widely use is the simultaneous parallel testing feature, which helps me a lot in testing on multiple devices at the same time and saves a lot of time.
Pros
- The devices available for testing render the websites as perfectly as a real device would
- The ability to switch to different OS versions and different website versions increases the testing scope
- The simultaneous/ parallel execution of tests on multiple devices makes things faster and testing can be done faster
- The ability to change how the network speed affects the performance and to get to know how everything behaves on the device
Cons
- The parallel execution is limited and is still in beta state. Once it starts to work properly, it will be more helpful
- The paid subscription can be a bit of an issue for some individuals or organizations as the charges are a bit too much
- Some of the devices do not open or load properly and are not available to test at times
- The multi-device testing
- Network Throttling
- Parallel and Simultaneous execution
- It has saved our organization the cost of buying physical devices
- The time required for testing has decreased by a lot as most of the devices are handy all the time
- Most of the clients prefer BrowserStack and is trusted by all for testing
The need to have physical devices is a huge challenge, and considering my organization is remote-based, it is also not feasible to transfer the devices from one tester to another when not needed. Also, with the devices changing and updating, and with physical devices not getting the ability to downgrade the OS or the browser version. Also getting to test on multiple configurations of laptops, be it MacBook or Windows, is also something that is feasible only because of BrowserStack.

Being a service-based company, our organization has to ensure that the services we deliver are of excellent quality, and we must ensure that the development is accessible and compatible with most devices and OS. Also, some clients have specific requirements like testing on specific devices like iPhones or iPads, which can also be tested using BrowserStack.
BrowserStack is simpler and more user friendly than Sauce Labs and can be easily learned by any individual who is new to it and does not require much efforts. Also, BrowserStack is more trusted by the clients that we offer services to, and is always considered the best option among others.
