A wide range of users with different operating systems, browsers, hardware configurations and other variables provides a wide sample size that helps developers discover as many issues as possible. This helps developers decide when to increase server disk space and power or whether or not using a virtual cloud server is optimal.

More control: While performing on-premise testing, organizations have more control over configurations, setup, hardware, and software. For certain situations that don’t require scalability, on-premise testing can be cost-effective. . And you know it — maintaining a horde of tools, systems, servers, and software is no joke!
