Alida CXM vs. OpenText LiquidOffice

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.

OpenText LiquidOffice would be most suitable if you engage or already use the large array of OpenText information management solutions; as integrations would be swift. From my experience LiquidOffice has been a successful investment to provide secure eForms from authenticated users. The PDF standalone forms are flexible enough to be opened on any browser or PDF viewer. It is a superb solution to collect and validate information from your audiences.

• 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

• Form processes & routing - Makes it very easy at an enterprise level
• Integration with 3rd party & external forms
• Automation of forms with less coding making it useful for quick turnarounds

• 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.

• Very old UI
• Feels like an archaic system
• Reporting isn't great

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.

It's easy to use from both ends; form creator and the one filling the surveys. It's easy to view the forms from all browsers with ease. It's also simple to use due to the drag and drop process modelling to configure forms in minutes with smooth scripting and integration capabilities.

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

Not very good especially with its ever increasing feature set. It becomes a little clunky in the beginning. Although most of the features are easy to use, a basic tech support or training module could do wonders for the software

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

OpenText LiquidOffice's has a very simple to understand and relatively powerful form builder. The workflow designer is also very easy to pick up and requires users to have minimal training. OpenText Liquid Office does look a lot older than other products in its class though and I feel would benefit from a more fresh and modern design.

• 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.

• We collect authenticated data from our users and audiences to improve our services.
• The surveys give us a better understanding of our markets.
