Overall Satisfaction with Sauce Labs

We use sauce labs across our organization. It is good for testing software for devices that we do not have physical access to.
  • Testing software on devices that you do not have physical access to
  • Testing software on older browsers
  • It can be a little quicker to load
  • Would like the feature of downloading software
I think BrowserStack is a decent competitor with similar features to Sauce Labs. I have also used VMware, however, VMware takes up a lot of storage on your computer. Sauce Labs has pretty good documentation and webinars which I think are useful for the consumer to understand how to use it.
I think it is well suited when you do not have access to the particular device. It is also good for hooking up automation suites and is fairly easy to do this with good documentation. I think it is less appropriate when you have the physical device you need for testing.

Evaluating Sauce Labs and Competitors

Yes - We used to use vmware. vmware was pretty slow and required extra memory to run
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
It is a good product that is fairly cheap.
I do not think I would do that much different. We are content with our decision to use sauce labs.
