Alida CXM vs. Keatext

From my experience, I believe that Vision Critical offers the best software to manage an insights community. They are great to work with, and my opinion has only improved over time. However, that doesn't mean it is the best survey software overall. If someone simply needs to program and distribute surveys, this may or may not be the right solution. There are some other really great survey tools on the market that are competitively priced and offer very intuitive interfaces (like Qualtrics). If you are going to recruit people to answer surveys or provide feedback on an ongoing basis (re-contacting and engaging with the same people repeatedly), though, Vision Critical would be my #1 recommendation.

Keatext is adequate and competent for the study of texts, phrases and words in the professional area; to deliver a different approach to customer feedback to provide alternatives that shorten response times; the end goal is to respond proactively and adjust acceptable policies.

• The team is helpful in creating complicated survey logic
• The team is accommodating in creating interfaces that suit our desired look
• The team keeps in regular contact in order to effectively manage our requests and goals

• You can detect or analyze feelings in French, Italian, Arabic, and English.
• You can classify text and comments in different languages.
• Easy to use for both professionals and non-professionals.
• Use analytics to gain deep insight into what's happening on social media platforms.
• Simple interface.

• The functionality when creating a new questionnaire is rather clunky, particularly when there are a few conditional factors in the logical flow; being able to see those factors and how they apply with some sort of other logical layout would really help when creating a longer survey.
• There are quite a few steps that aren't intuitive when launching a survey, for instance all the various dates (launch date, reserve date, survey date, etc etc etc). If there were a description field if you hovered above labeled areas of sections that explained what this field was for that would really help
• It doesn't help either that the entire site is grey; it's a cold environment to be in for a long time, and the simple design makes it seem more clunky than it probably really is.

• It is only available in French, Arabic, Spanish and English. I really would love it to be in the Hindi language.

Vision Critical often requires you to dump the data to a statistical program. I hate that step. You waste time, and improve the chance of data being lost, or changed.

I think there is a ton of room to improve, in things as simple as aesthetics and other areas of logical flow when it comes to creating and then launching a survey, as well as providing descriptors for what each field is referencing. For instance, there are like 5 date fields to be filled out, but no button near them that says "this date will determine _________" and I am not about to go back into the training module, which was confusing enough to FIND, let alone work through to find just ONE answer.

Absolutely fantastic support team. Willing to help you online through vast collection of how-to guides and resources, online via chatbox, or over the phone. Even though we were in different time zones, they were always available. Very helpful and knowledgeable

Vision Critical is more appealing visually but no where near as complex or robust. Vision Critical is also much more expensive though.

We were using Freshdesk before using Keatext. When it comes to report & dashboard analysis Keatext provides advanced analytics options. Keatext provides high availability with integrations options of mail notifications & SMS notifications as well. Keatext provides chatbot options for auto-respond user queries.

• Our use of Vision Critical's software has allowed us to dramatically increase the amount of research that we do, at a much lower cost. Since there is no incremental cost for each survey we field, we can ask many questions we wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
• Our use of an insights community has also sped up the research process, allowing us to write, program, field and report on a survey within only a few days.
• Because of the two advantages listed above, we have been able to listen closer to our customers' opinions.

• Keatext allows the creation of custom tests to meet the needs of each business.
• Automate UX research for scalability.
• Provides analytical data in addition to tracking user experience.
