When you're on it, you can select any iPhone or Android from a wide range, including older models like a Google Pixel 6. Helping a variety of clients means I need access an app on various platforms or software versions, and it allows me to go on and have the exact same app experience that they have. This is really helpful when something's wrong so we can fix it or show clients how to actually work it properly. > > **Cons**: It's not very user-friendly at first, but that's only because of how much it actually supports. Once you know how to use it, it's very good. > > I use BrowserStack to assist customers with current or outdated devices, offering solutions across iOS and Android. It provides access to a wide range of devices, helping me replicate customer experiences and resolve issues effectively. If I didn't use BrowserStack, my job would be 10 times harder ----- ### "Capita Browserstack Review" — 4.0/5 > **Hadi** | *25 March 2026* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: BrowserStack offers access to multiple operating systems, browsers, and real devices. This eliminates the need to own or manage physical hardware.,Due to this capability, it has been incorporated as a core multi-device testing tool in Capita Learning's test strategies. > > **Cons**: BrowserStack can be slow or laggy at times, particularly when testing responsive screens, which made some QA activities more time‑consuming than expected. > > In general, our experience with BrowserStack as a supporting QA tool was quite positive, especially for cross-browser and cross-device testing.,BrowserStack offered easy access to a diverse array of real devices and browsers, which greatly enhanced coverage for responsive and compatibility testing without the need to depend solely on physical hardware.,As a result, BrowserStack was consistently mentioned and integrated into Capita Learning's test strategies as part of the comprehensive QA toolset. ----- ### "Indispensable tool" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *7 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Plethora of browsers and devices available to test on. Great debugging tools. Reliable. Always available. Saves us having to purchase old devices and setup loads of old browers and operating systems. > > **Cons**: Can't think of anything that we dislike about BrowserStack - it does everything we need it to do without issue. > > It has become an integral part of our QA workflow, and we find it an invaluable tool. Plethora of browsers and devices available to test on. Great debugging tools. Reliable. Always available. Saves us having to purchase old devices and setup loads of old browers and operating systems. ----- ### "Good cross-browser coverage, difficult licensing options" — 4.0/5 > **Joe** | *9 December 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Initial setup was straightforward. Selection of browsers and OS is really broad and covers all major platforms we need. Performance is pretty solid most of the time, and the built in debugging tools are also pretty good as well > > **Cons**: Setting up custom environments or specialized devices (China etc) took a lot of effort. Product naming is very strange and difficult to understand, we had to maintain Excel sheets with different columns for all your products to understand who has access to what. > > Tool offers decent value for testing mobile and web apps in different devices and OS. It's not cheap and again some of the licenses are quite difficult to understand, but what you get in return is solid. ----- ### "Solid cross-browser testing solution that saves tons of time" — 5.0/5 > **John-Luke** | *11 November 2025* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The variety of browsers and devices is quite impressive. We can test on pretty much any browser version going back years, plus real iOS and Android devices. This alone saves us from having to maintain a device lab. Starting up a test session is pretty quick, maybe 30-60 seconds to spin up a VM. The screenshot feature is great for quickly checking layouts across multiple browsers at once without manually opening each one. As for integration, connecting it to our existing tools was straightforward enough. Their docs are decent. > > **Cons**: It can be a bit slow sometimes, especially with the mobile devices. You're controlling a real device remotely so I get it, though it's usually manageable. Just something to keep in mind if you're doing a lot of touch interaction testing. > > BrowserStack has been a game-changer for our workflow. Being able to test across so many different browsers and devices without maintaining our own lab is worth the investment alone. There are some minor hiccups here and there, but the time it saves us is huge. If you're doing any kind of cross-browser testing, this tool pretty much pays for itself. Definitely recommend giving it a try. ----- Page: 1 / 32\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/162900/browserstack?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/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
