Alchemer, formerly SurveyGizmo
SurveyGizmo works extremely well as a platform for receiving survey responses. As a survey/business analytics tool, the platform offers extensive options for customization and deployment of professional questionnaires. Our team has found SurveyGizmo to be extremely well suited for the modern administrative employee. Surveys are relatively easy to create, deploy, and manage responses in real time. Furthermore, monitoring / managing the results enables businesses to provide any necessary follow-up based on key results. Our team spends quite a bit of time testing out survey tools and have found SurveyGizmo to be a solid option for the needs of our team. Furthermore, we have recommended the platform to other departments within our organization that have uniquely different skillsets from our own. Overall, we see SurveyGizmo as a tool that can be used across most organizational teams if implemented with the specific user-experience in mind.

It worked well for us in these scenarios:
- Collecting and scheduling targeted customers for user testing or product feedback interviews.
- Asking targeted questions about what specific customers want or need help with achieving, to spark ideas and see if our expectations match what customers tell us.
- Providing step-by-step guidance to explore hypotheses about what kind of assistance will best help new customers. (When these are successful, they are formally built into the customer experience.)
- Gathering data to share between groups to help address differences in expectation or opinion.

Pros
Alchemer, formerly SurveyGizmo
- Attaching images! Survey Gizmo makes attaching images from surveys a breeze. I've tried other popular survey tools and it can be difficult for users to submit images as part of their survey (e.g. some only allow 1 picture per question, whereas Survey Gizmo allows a range for you to select from)
- Easy and intuitive survey building.
- Pretty good out-of-the-box survey analysis.

- Qualaroo does a great job of being able to capture additional information about a respondent, like their UTM data
- Qualaroo does a great job at providing exportable, raw data for deeper analysis
- Qualaroo does a great job at providing emails to give quick snapshots at how your survey "nudge" is performing
- Qualaroo has great support and lots of documentation online to help
- Qualaroo has easily digestible dashboards to get quick insights
- Qualaroo makes it easy to duplicate and rerun surveys "nudges"

Cons
Alchemer, formerly SurveyGizmo
- Duplicate protection needs improvement. Anyone who would like to start a survey and finish at a later time is unable to which limits total survey responses.
- Password protection option can be a challenge when uploading spreadsheets with pre-populated data.
- Logic and piping options for questions can be difficult when designing more complicated and in-depth surveys, which requires a lot of testing.
- Follow-up surveys do not provide an option for survey takers to review their previous survey responses, which may provide less accurate data when comparing individuals across multiple surveys.
- Would like the option to link surveys together in order to more easily track data from individuals across multiple surveys and save previous survey data.

- The way regular expression targeting works can be quirky, depending on how your site works. A "nudge" that is sometimes supposed to display only on certain pages will sometimes carry over to a page where it should not display.
- The interface for editing and sequencing steps within a "nudge" becomes cumbersome once there are more than just 3-4 questions/screens bundled into the "nudge" (think 3-4 single-question pages of a typical web survey). You can use branch logic to make a very sophisticated question sequence and you can preview/test thoroughly, but it's a challenging UI for advanced use cases.
- The "exit survey" functionality does not work well on landing pages because the "exit" nudge displays when a user's mouse is in the tabs or navigation area of the browser. That's often where a user's mouse is located on page load for a landing page (especially direct navigation), so the "nudge" displays too quickly. There's no ability to set a delay before the exit "nudge" can be triggered.
- Qualaroo's NPS question type is too constraining (no control over labels) and the presentation looks dated compared to other micro-survey tools that I've seen since we signed up for Qualaroo.

The micro-survey landscape is evolving very quickly and it seems like there is a new entrant almost every month. I'm generally happy with Qualaroo (we got what we expected) and I like the folks on the Qualaroo team (support is fast and friendly and rarely needed), but there haven't been real improvements to the platform in the last eight months. We will be re-assessing Qualaroo's features and price versus other competitors when our current contract is up.

We know the value of consumer feedback and believe that users actually want to be a part of the process. With Qualaroo, we have learnt that people like answering certain types of questions, especially if you ask them something about themselves — like what they want most and their motivations behind purchases — they can’t resist typing a response.

I've never experienced an outage where Qualaroo was unavailable. I don't think I've even gotten notices for scheduled down/maintenance time. The platform is always available.

Our developers complain that Qualaroo is just one of several similar site add-ons that slow down our site performance. I'm skeptical that Qualaroo has any measurable impact on our page load times, but don't have any hard evidence either way. The Qualaroo admin interface and reporting mechanisms are all quick and reliable.

I love the user experience and the data that Qualaroo provides - basically I find this tool really great when it comes to increasing the conversion rate of the website. As it gave a great idea of what our users are thinking and feeling in the real time.

Qualaroo doesn't offer full-blown online training, at least not that I've used or needed. The online help documentation is adequate and Qualaroo-sponsored webinars are informative.

Have your technical team set up the "Identify" feature right out of the gate - this is a "fire and forget" feature. Once it's set up, your data is much more valuable. Also, if there are very specific kinds of page targeting you might imagine doing, have a technical person set up and test at least 2-3 examples of using Qualaroo's regular expression features to achieve this targeting. With a couple good examples in place to work from, it becomes much easier to create your own regular expressions for custom targeting.

Best alternative and value for the cost EASILY. AND it performs similar or more functions than that of Qualtrics. Survey Monkey is just terrible.

Qualaroo makes it very easy to launch a quick survey based on templates or custom questions with an intuitive user interface. It is also very flexible and can be easily integrated with AB testing thanks to the advanced options. Reports are getting better but analytics wise it's still not up to the refinement level of SurveyMonkey but it does beat the latter in terms of UI experience.When compared to SurveyGizmo, the flexibility on surveys is what stands out and how easy it is to create different survey flows.

Qualaroo's simplicity has its down sides when it comes to scaling. Managing multiple nudges across multiple domains, at least in the Pro edition, is challenging. The active nudges all appear as a single list on the admin home page, automatically grouped by domains. Archived nudges are on a separate tab. It would be helpful to have a folder system to organize nudges.Also, once you have multiple active nudges that are targeted to different sections of your site using regular expressions, it's difficult to keep track of what is appearing where. It's also difficult, if not impossible, to figure out where you may have competing nudges.And there's no ability to assign reporting or configuration access to other members of your team. The Pro edition has a single login, which must be shared if you have multiple staff who want to use Qualaroo.

- SG has allowed us to provide a real-time and convenient tool for our partners to send data to us.
- SG has a lot of powerful features that, to us, are more than a survey tool. We found it helpful in many scenarios, providing interesting quizzes, screening job applicants or screening if people are eligible for our programs. It actually provides some automation in those processes.
- You can use the URL variable to track our outreach results and help determine which outreach method works better so we can make adjustment accordingly.

- Compared with other online surveys, Qualaroo nudge is pretty easy to spot, and the response rate is extraordinary.
- Our company mainly uses Qualaroo to recognize the needs of customers on particular web pages and how they can be taken care of.
- We can plan our sales strategy to generate additional leads.
