Reviews
(1-25 of 152)My Experience with BrowserStack in last few years.
- BrowserStack will provide latest mobile devices with all models which are currently in the market
- it gives you real devices for real time experience so that you can test your application like physical devices
- It also provides UI inspection option for developers
- BrowserStack doesn't have private devices option, if it gives it will be helpful
- Need some improvements in UI inspection tool, its lagging some time.
- BrowserStack UI is little bit complex some time it will be difficult to find some features, so need some improvements in UI.
BrowserStack is very helpful in providing latest cloud devices and gives all the latest models.
It provides option for running automation scripts also and that is very useful.
Less appropriate in-
Currently it is not providing private devices option, private devices are useful sometime in iOS devices testing.
Using BrowserStack at a Marketing Agency
- Live interaction with any website to inspecting, debugging issues directly on remote browsers
- Local testing feature that allow us to test websites hosted on developmental servers
- BrowserStack support a vast majority of browsers and OS, including older versions
- I have experienced that many times, live testing sessions have latency that slow down the debugging process. Especially websites with many animations.
- The User Interface and Experience could be improved. It can be overwhelming for new users sometimes.
- Pricing can be expensive for small organizations that rely on that platform
BrowserStack Stacks Up
- Emulating device types
- Flexibility to change between operating systems/versions
- Fast response time when in use
- Though mostly fast, some features are slow to respond
- Multiple users can't be logged in at once
- Improved usability of mobile device types

great tool , reduces time and cost

Great product that helped us ship faster

- Support
- Ease of Integration
- The Pricing structure can be more easier for customers to pick from multiple options.
- Full access to device is restricted however it would be great if we can give full access to the users
We have limited devices for running automated tests and buying new devices is too much expensive and the devices got outdated quickly.
In order to solve this problem we started a trial on BrowserStack.
- It gets the backend logs that is pretty useful for getting backend end errors
- The connection with the BrowserStack devices are quick and easy to setup
- BrowserStack provides a lot of documentation to guide you when you're starting to use BrowserStack
- I think that if BrowserStack provides a way to use emails in an easy way, it should be pretty helpful
- Provide a way to use SMS in more countries like Brazil
The tool is stable, there are a lot of different devices and OS. It's really useful.
I only had a problem in the past while working with a company that had geolocation activated on the app. The app only works in the USA, and I was in Brazil.
I faced many many issues working on this circumstances. I tried to get in touch with BrowserStack, but I leave the company before get the problem solved. But that one was the only big problem that I've faced while using BrowserStack.
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.

- The test session can be recorded and the screenshot can be captured for marking or recording the bugs found during testing.

- Touch gestures can be improved for testing on mobile.

- 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.
Forget getting your own devices
- No need to get own devices on premise
- Better API documentation
Purchase that you will not regret
- Testing on multiple devices
- Testing on multiple android versions
- Testing on multiple IOS versions
- Testing on different browsers, different screen size etc
- Right now I don't see much, but if we have some option to debug it would be great
- As I understood, debug on console is limited. If it is improved as normal browser it would be great
- Same applicable for mobile browsers
