"An invaluable beta platform"
4/5
What do you like best about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

We used HockeyApp extensively to distribute beta builds of our app on both iOS and Android. Installing beta apps on mobile has always seemed to be a bit of a dark art and Hockey has consistently been more reliable than any of the competing solutions we've used. HockeyApp has been one of those services that we simply couldn't imagine working without. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

HockeyApp is at an automatic disadvantage when compared to first-party solutions, as it takes some work to integrate it into your workflow. There's no getting around that. Without question, however, we've found it's absolutely worth the work to get everything up and running. The results have been worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited testers slot and you need to configure each beta tester manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very nice but very expensive solution"
3/5
What do you like best about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

It has a very intuitive, consistent UI. It was still in Beta when I was using it, but it looked fantastic. Hardly the most important thing for an analytics platform but it made using it a pleasant experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

The price. It was still in Beta so we were using it for free on some of our newer apps, but some of the numbers that were talked about were huge. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Beta Testing Platform"
4/5
What do you like best about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

When using this app, the ability to download current versions of the app you are beta testing is simple, the ability to report bugs is seamless, and the app is overall quite easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Microsoft Visual Studio App Center?

There isn't a lot to say bad about this app. The name is a bit confusing, I often forget that is the app I need to look for when attempting to download a new app for testing. But probably not much can be done about that name. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
