What do you like best about BrowserStack?

BrowserStack Live has had a huge impact on how I do cross-browser testing. Its best feature lets you test on real devices and browsers right away, without needing to set up tricky local setups or handle actual devices. It's super handy and saves a ton of time. The platform works with loads of browsers, devices, and operating systems, so you can test for all sorts of situations. The interface is simple to get the hang of even if you're new to cross-browser testing. Plus, the platform runs fast and responds during tests, which makes the whole thing run . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BrowserStack?

BrowserStack Live is a solid tool, but it has room to get better in a few areas. For starters, the cost can hit hard for smaller teams or solo developers if you need to check your work on lots of devices and browsers often. Also, the connection can be hit-or-miss at times when you're testing on older or basic devices. This isn't a huge problem, but it can affect how well you can test. , it's not always easy to find certain odd browsers or OS versions, which can be a pain if you need very specific setups for testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BrowserStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

BrowserStack tackles a bunch of super important issues for the folks who build and check websites — it's like a must-have when you're making stuff on the web:

Testing if Stuff Works on Different Browsers:

One gnarly problem that developers deal with is getting their site or web application to run smooth on all sorts of browsers and gadgets. Going through each browser version and gadget by hand to test stuff is a real drag and not the best use of time. BrowserStack jumps in to save the day with its stash of actual gadgets and a whole bunch of browsers and operating systems you can use. You just hop on, do your tests right there and then, and you don't have to bother with your own pile of devices or setting up a bazillion test setups.

Testing on Actual Gadgets:

Testing on BrowserStack, you don't just rely on simulators or emulators, which can miss the mark on showing how folks really see your website. Instead, you get to test on actual devices. That gives a better look at the real-world performance, user interface, and how people will actually interact with your site. It's super handy for finding problems specific to certain gadgets, which you might never notice if you were just using a desktop browser.

Speeding Up QA Work:

Man, before BrowserStack came along getting all your gadgets, settings, and testing spots ready for checking how things worked across different browsers was a real time-gobbler. Took hours! But now, thanks to BrowserStack, I can dive right into testing on a bunch of different devices without worrying about setup time. My testing work got way faster, and that means we can move through development at a quicker pace.

Working and Teaming Up:

When folks are spread out working, BrowserStack makes it way easier for the group to work together. Everyone gets to use the same test spots so developers and QA folks can look at problems at the same time and fix stuff on various gadgets all at once. This made our process slicker and cut down on the times we get stuck waiting to chat.

Growth and Being Adjustable:

Thanks to BrowserStack being on the cloud, I can beef up my test game fast. It doesn't matter if it's about checking if things work on mobile seeing if they play nice with different browsers, or just making sure everything runs smooth on various operating systems. The platform's ready for whatever, and I don't have to pour money into heaps of gear. That's a big win for quick-moving teams juggling a bunch of projects or when what we're making keeps changing a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about BrowserStack?

The ability to integrate with Firebase, TestFlight and App Center makes testing very easy. I can easily choose the source of the application, test it on different systems, browsers and devices. One of the best advantages is DevConsole, also for testing mobile devices - no more problems finding logs, screenshots or recordings. I also use the screen recording and GPS emulator on a daily basis. Automatic accessibility testing is also a plus. There are many features, such as Percy, test automation and even test management.

It was my first time using Browserstack but its intuitve and user friendly, with plenty of documentation if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BrowserStack?

Browserstack tends to lag when I use LiveApp to test an app via TestFlight, making it difficult to determine whether it's a problem with the app itself or the device emulator. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BrowserStack solving and how is that benefiting you?

- testing on multiple devices and systems

- Easily accessible logs for mobile testing

- GPS emulator for iOS

- accessibility testing with automatic results Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
