Alchemer, formerly SurveyGizmo vs QuestionPro

• 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.

• Before choosing QuestionPro, we evaluated it and Qualtrics, SurveyGizmo, and SurveyMonkey. A committee tested each of 141 key features on all four products. QuestionPro did well in the comparison and we have ended up using even more features that we tested. The summary of that work can be found here: https://oit.utk.edu/research/documentation/qualtrics-to-questionpro/.
• The way it handles anonymous surveys is particularly good. With most products, you have to remember to check the "anonymous" box to prevent it from saving email addresses or other identifiable data. But if you forget to do so, you can't tell by taking the survey. Question pro uses "Respondent Anonymity Assurance" that must be turned on by the company (a quick request from the chat window will suffice) and then it can never be turned off. This activates a link that appears on the bottom left-hand of each survey page. Clicking it takes the survey participant to a company page which assures them that the anonymous feature is indeed turned on.
• It has a very nice combination of great power and ease of use.
• The support we have received from the company has been excellent. Our team has worked with around 30 research software vendors for over 35 years and this company stands out as being extremely responsive to our needs. We told them we needed a migration tool to help us move from Qualtrics to QuestionPro and they created one in just a few weeks. They've added or improved a number of other features for us, at no charge.

• 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.

• Doesn't allow for the level of customization required for a lot of projects
• Can be a little too simple, not complex enough
• Can tend to be a little buggy at times -- new features need to be more thoroughly vetted

• 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.

• QuestionPro gathered data useful for communication across departments that often struggle to understand one another. For example, the survey gathered data that enabled IT to pinpoint specific WiFi problems across campus.
• QuestionPro helps evaluate student staff performance and identify places for growth, enhancing our team’s ability to serve ever-changing students.
