### "Great tool for test automation management" — 5.0/5

> **Daniel** | *26 June 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It provides the missing features in Jira for test case management and execution. It allows integration with cards on Jira, and the API allows to register test automation execution evidence. It also allows importing and exporting test cases from spreadsheets.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't missed anything inthis software until now.

### "Zephyr Scale Value Not Seen" — 4.0/5

> **Michael** | *05 January 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's easy to use for someone without any experience. Reporting is easy and great.
> 
> **Cons**: Doesn't offer all the features that some of the cheaper test management tools such as TestRail. Test Cycles can be wonky when testing from JIRA. Biggest con is that you can't do individual licenses for Zephyr Scale making the product very expensive. If you install the plug-in into JIRA then you have to pay for a license for every JIRA user; which is insane when only a small part of JIRA users at most companies get use out of this too. (Zephyr will cost around $15k a year for the company, but TestRail would have been $500 a year)
> 
> It's a good tool, but way too much money for what you get. I recommend trying TestRail or another tool first. (Zephyr will cost around $15k a year for the company, but TestRail would have been $500 a year)
