It saved me a lot of time and helped me find issues quickly. The platform is simple to use and very helpful for compatibility testing. > > **Cons**: The cost of using BrowserStack feels a bit high, especially for small teams. Sometimes the pricing doesn’t seem fair for the features offered. It would be better if they had more flexible or cheaper plans. > > My overall experience with BrowserStack was good. I enjoyed using it for browser and device testing. It helped me make sure my websites worked well everywhere. The platform is reliable and easy to use. ----- ### "Overall feedback" — 3.0/5 > **Lua** | *9 September 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Some features are nice, such as being able to add subfolders, importing test cases from CSV files, and filtering by custom date range (FINALLY), dragging and dropping test cases (this is extremely helpful; we would like to see the same functionality applied in test cases inside of a test run. > > **Cons**: REPORTS. 1. It would be nice if we could filter reports by tags 2. It would be nice to create a report from all the projects instead of only individual ones Test runs: 1. It would be nice if we could also drag and drop the test cases inside a test run 2. It would also be a game changer if we could filter test runs by tags. My team and I would love to use tags a bit more, but at the moment, we feel its usage is pretty limited. > > Overall, my experience has been good. Sometimes there are some annoying bugs, but I'm glad you guys are introducing new features. The custom data range filtering will be a game changer for my team. ----- ### "Reliable Cross Browser Testing Tool - Browserstack" — 5.0/5 > **Yash** | *2 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: - I can test on alomst any real iphone or android model without needing the physical hardwhere. - It makes it very easy to test my local dev env even when i'm behind a company's VPN. - It works well with our existing Playwright and Pyhton automation scripts. > > **Cons**: - There's often a big lag between my mouse click \& the remote devide responding. - It can take 20 30 sec, just to start a session, which feels slow when you are in a hurry. - It's definitely on the expensive side, especially when you start adding parallel testing slots for the team. > > It's a good tool that has become a part of our workflow. It helps us catch CSS bugs and layout issues on mobile Safari that we just can't see on desktop emulators. While the speed could be better and the cost is high, the reliability of testing on real devices makes it worth it for a professional team. ----- ### "Reliable Cross-Browser Testing Platform with Strong Automation Support" — 5.0/5 > **Tashvik** | *3 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Access to a wide range of real devices and browsers Strong automation support with parallel execution Easy integration with CI/CD pipelines Useful debugging tools like logs and video recordings > > **Cons**: Pricing can be on the higher side for smaller teams Test management features could be more robust Occasional latency in live sessions > > Overall, my experience with BrowserStack has been very positive. It has significantly streamlined cross-browser testing and reduced the need for maintaining physical test infrastructure. Despite minor drawbacks like pricing and occasional performance lags, it remains a reliable and essential tool in the QA and development workflow. ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/162900/browserstack?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.nz/software/162900/browserstack) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pl | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | | sv | | ----- ## Structured Data
