I'm using both Apple TestFlight and the original TestFlight, and the original is just such a smoother experience, even with having to add UDID's to provisioning profiles.

Things that are annoying about Apple TestFlight compared to the original:

- itunesconnect, while better than before, pales in comparison to the simplicity of testflightapp

- builds submitted to Apple "take a while" before they're available, testflightapp is instant once you've uploaded.

- managing users in groups seems to be absent

Last week I tested 7 builds with my team in the span of an hour. This all worked great because I was using original TestFlight which allows me to distribute immediately.

Waiting on Apple for each one of those builds? No, thank you.

The "Activity" screen on the original TestFlight was also a key feature when working with outside beta testers. It made it easy to see where users got stuck in the process and coach/prod them through it.
