Browserling Reviews 

I love how quickly I can jump between browsers here. This has saved me from installing browsers I only need once in a while.

BUT please add side by side testing

I was comparing a layout issues between two browsers and kept switching back and forth. Would be so much nicer to have both running next to each other and interact with them simultaneously.

Otherwise great tool.

I tried Browserling because I needed to check how a page looked in another browser, but I don't really understand the value for an individual user. if you have access to your computer, you can install Chrome, Firefox or Edge yourself and test locally without another subscription. I can see the convenience for a QA team that needs many browser environments, but for occasional testing it feels like an expensive solution to a problem I can solve myself for free.

Ran into slight billing glitch with my account renewal where my subscription tier wasn't updating properly in the dashboard. Tbh I shot an email over to their customer service team expecting to wait a couple of days like most software platforms, but they literally sorted it out and replied within about 20 mins. Really rare to see support that fast and helpful nowadays.

Highly appreciate the quick fix.

It was really solid software service, everything runs smoothly right inside the browser window with zero installation required. It does exactly what it promises without any bloat.

Highly recommended.

Honestly it's easy and the fastest testing tool I've tried in a while and I had a client freak out because their legacy portal wasn't rendering right on an older version of edge. And instead of wasting an hour configuring a virtual machine or downloading bulky software, I just dropped the link into browserling.

It booted up a live, interactive window instantly and no loading lag, no delayed clicks, it was just a smooth stream.

Saved me so much time today.

Honestly who in their right mind is going to pay a monthly subscription fee just to use a web browser ?? idgaf that's a complete joke of pricing structure for something that literally everyone can already access for free on any device.

Absolute pass !!!

The platform functions okay if you just need to load up an old browser version for a quick check but charging 19 dolls a month for this is honestly wild. At the end of the day you're literally just paying a premium fee to use a web browser inside another browser.

If you're independent creator or just doing casual web projects, the price tag makes zero sense for how basic the utility is definitely looking into cheaper alternatives.

We have been using Browserling's standard interactive platform for a while now to handle our manual crosss browser testing and form a pure usability standpoint it does exactly what it promises. Being able to spin up a live virtual machine directly inside a browser tab without managing local emulators or bloated software suites saves our design team significant amount of time. The streaming connection is responsive, the frame rate is stable and the catalog of legacy and modern browsers is comprehensive enough for our daily compliance checks for basic manual debugging it easily earn high marks.

However, our team recently attempted to scale up our workflow by integrating automated browser streaming directly into our internal QA dashboard using their live API. We were incredibly disappointed to discover that access to the live API is completely locked behind an entirely separate subscription plan, completely independent of the developer tier we already pay for every month.

Discovering that we have to manage and pay for two separate recurring subscriptions just to utilize the core ecosystem within the same company feels like a classic case of corporate nickel and diming. For a snall development shop or a solo freelancer, having to pay a premium for a standard interactive access and then a completely separate bill just to hook into API interface is a massive financial hurdle that is incredibly difficult to justify.

If the live API features were bundled directly into the higher tier developer or team accounts even if it meant a slight reasonable adjustment to the based tier price it would make the transition to automation infinitely smoother and more consumer friendly.

Instead we're left in frustrating middle ground where the product itself works wonderfully, but the fragmented dual subscription pricing model leaves a bad taste in mouth and it forces teams to look for alternative all in one testing platforms simply to avoid dealing with multiple distinct paywalls for the same underlying service.

Kept trying to load up a testing session today and got it on the second load, which is kinda ok. Also the UI is incredibly bright and there is no dark mode, which makes it painful to use fit night coding. I've to install dark mode extension to use it else

Really straightforward platform. You just paste your link, choose the browser version, and it loads up and interactive screen pretty much instantly.

The connection is smooth and it does exactly what it says on the tin. Perfect for web developers. And I found secret coupon code on their site.

Love that !!!

Really solid tool for cross browser testing and it gets the job done without any hassle. My only tiny complaint is that the interface looks a bit outdated but purely from a functional standpoint it works perfectly fine

The idea behind it is cool, but the free tier limits are just way too short to do any actual debugging. The queue times can also be pretty annoying when Yu you're in a rush.

Fine if you just need a 5 second look but frustrating for real work

Honestly such a great tool if you just need to quickly check how a site looks on an older browser. Didn't have to install an bulky software or extension it just run right in the browser window

Super fast and saved me a ton of set up time today

I Used Browserling to reproduce a Javascript bug that only occurred in Safari. Our team couldn't replicate it locally becasue we were working on Windows machines. With Browserling I could open the site in Safari instantly, inspect the console, and find the issue caused by a missing polyfill. It made debugging a browser-specific problem much faster without needing extra devices.

Browserling charges in an endless loop, even after you cancel your subscription.

Their website interface is build in a way that would not show you the current status of your subscription. So if you cancel it, you often do not receive any email nor you see the changed subscription status.

I received now a very friendly email from the founder of the service, they apologized and announced a new dashboard coming soon. They will refund the 12 USD!

Not sure why this is a paid service. It literally just lets you use browsers you can install for free in a few minutes. No real added value to justify the cost.

Don't use - fraudulent. Cancellations of paid memberships acknowledged on website but not executed and next payment still taken.

This site has changed, do not use it.
As of now their free trial is now limited to 20 or so lifetime sessions after that you pay or you can't ever use this again... a Stupid thing to do but hey, if they want to kill their own reputation they can do that, it won't help them, and it will just make them loose their money.

Not even other browser testing sites are like this, they at least don't go out of their way to make sure you pay them after you've "Tried" the site, most other sites say "THIS IS A TRIAL PLEASE KNOW YOU CANT USE THIS FOREVER" browserling does not at all say this and in fact advertises free usage of their service with no limit other then a time limit per session.

For security reasons this site has been blocked on my router as it seems to not be owned by the same company.

Very nice for bypassing wifi restrictions / browsing without being tracked, would recommend to anyone needing something for that purpose.
