    AskNicely
    AskNicely is well suited for surveying customers about how they are feeling about your product. This can be their overall feeling or after they have taken a certain action. E.g. used a particular feature. It's not designed for getting through customer feedback, rather gauging satisfaction. You will need to follow up with other survey methods for detailed feedback.

    We use Fulcrum to record information about vehicles and our product in the field to ensure we have clean and organized records of work completed and issues encountered. This has unlocked immense value for us. It allows managers to review work to maintain high quality. Using Fulcrum has also allowed for large amounts of field data to be gathered and quickly transferred from our field team to our engineering team when necessary.

    Cons
    AskNicely
    • Integrations could always be another but they do a nice job getting Asknicely and CRM’s talking nicely to one another
    • I’d like to see more resources on how to take small businesses to the next level of CX execution using NPS and AskNicely
    • More, not fewer plan options

    • Advanced features are not extremely intuitive for less technical audience.
    • Must reassign records to a different user to discontinue an account.

    Alternatives Considered
    AskNicely
    We are still evaluating SurveyMonkey against AskNicely, but initial results would seem to favor the latter. For ease-of-use, flexibility, and easily accessible analytics, AskNicely wins on all counts. Both have robust outreach engines, and there are limitations and pros/cons on each application. It is at least a very competitive match up, and I would hesitate to besmirch one tool over the other. SurveyMonkey users would benefit from giving AskNicely a once-over, though.

    Return on Investment
    AskNicely
    • Ask Nicely is just for internal use and we don't monitor it in relevance to GMV
    • Ask Nicely is a good way to provide quantifiable goals in customer service which is often qualitative
    • Ask Nicely is a great way to follow up with all customers who have not had a good experience

    • Manual data entry of collected field information is no longer required saving anywhere from 1 to 10 hours of tedious work and eliminating human error.
    • Clients are impressed with our ability to use digital field notes and our ability to communicate in near real time which helps ensure client retention and expanding our envelope of work with them.
    • Instead of spending time trying to find out what, why, where, and when a picture was taken the guess work is removed as photos are georeferenced and can be annotated in the field.
