I had used Browserstack a long time ago. Can’t say I use them as much anymore. With the dominance of Chrome (also MS Edge), Firefox, and Safari rounding out the top 3 I’ve found most web standards are followed and the need for browser-specific code (ie: IE) is not needed as much as it used to be back in the day. That eliminated most of the reason to test cross-browser with any site regardless of where it was hosted. With email it’s a different story and you still need to test a ton.

Is there something that has come up in the past to take you down this road? And what do your current statistics tell you about who is visiting your site and what they are using?

Hi Ben,

I started looking at cross browser testing software as a solution for testing website content on different browsers and most importantly different devices after I got different results on preview vs live published pages. When I publish my page live, It usually looks fine visually (like the preview) but some functionalities such as buttons, links, etc don’t work on certain devices or browsers compared to others.

I was turning to cross browser testing tools as a potential solution to the problem but after looking further into it, it sounds like the only solution would be for HubSpot to enhance the preview feature because even with cross browser testing software, the page would have to be published for me to be able to test it. So it wouldn’t make that much of a difference and wouldn’t justify $ investment either.

I created an idea about this here (please upvote!): [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Enhanced-website-preview-feature/idi-p/646159](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/Enhanced-website-preview-feature/idi-p/646159)

Thanks,
