Frequently asked questions
What is the best Mabl alternative for small teams?
AegisRunner is the most direct alternative for teams that don't want to commit to Mabl's enterprise pricing. The free tier scans one project at no cost, paid plans start at $9/mo, and you can export the underlying Playwright tests at any time — no proprietary lock-in.
How does AegisRunner pricing compare to Mabl?
Mabl is sales-led, with public pricing starting around $1,500/mo. AegisRunner publishes pricing: Free, Starter $9/mo, Pro $49/mo, Business $199/mo. Every paid plan has a 14-day trial — no credit card upfront.
Can I migrate my Mabl tests to AegisRunner?
Mabl tests are stored in a proprietary format, so direct import is not supported. The faster path is to point AegisRunner at the same URL and let it regenerate the suite from scratch — it usually takes minutes, and the resulting tests are plain Playwright code you keep.
Where does Mabl win?
Mabl has been on the market longer and has more enterprise integrations (Salesforce, SAP, certain ERPs) wired in. If your test surface is large legacy enterprise apps and budget isn't a constraint, Mabl is the safer pick. For modern SaaS / web apps where you want code ownership and predictable pricing, AegisRunner is the stronger fit.
