AskNicely vs. Qualtrics XM for Strategy and Research

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.

Qualtrics is a good medium for creating surveys and getting analytics back for it. I think it's easy to learn if you are in the business of creating surveys or if it's part of your studies. It can be a little overwhelming for a brand new user who has never created a survey for the first time. So onboarding could be better.

• NPS Surveys - Easy to access and use and branded for our company.
• Analytics - AskNicely provides simple and robust analytics for identifying trends in data.
• Workflows - AskNicely uniquely provides automated workflows in response to NPS results. This means teams like customer success and marketing can spend less time reacting and researching and more time working to create programs that drive more business and improve our customer experience.

• Qualtrics CoreXM is easy to use for quick one-time surveys or for measuring opinions over time
• It's great for sending/managing RSVPs for meetings or other gatherings or to collect important data like Conflict of Interest declarations.
• Qualtrics CoreXM's reporting and crosstab functionality is beefy and gets better all of the time. I'm always amazed at how easy it is to generate reports for sharing my survey response data and research.

• 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

• The collaborate feature can be clunky and sometimes we have to remove access and add a person back in for them to see the survey in their lists
• We have a contract through our university and more than one person has created their account in the wrong place, causing some administrative headaches as that is fixed so that we can collaborate on surveys with them.
• I wish it was easier to organize my surveys into folders, there should be a more efficient way to do that.

I was impressed a couple years ago when two heads of market research at Fortune 500 companies told me about them, and I've been even more impressed with the advancements I've seen in the last year. I like where the company is headed, and I look forward to using them again in a future role.

All the menus are very user friendly and intuitive. I can always find exactly what I'm looking for and can change anything I need to with ease. All the elements of the survey are adjustable with very little effort and without confusion.

Whenever we have had an issue with trying to figure out how to do something (even though the documentation is incredibly well put together) we have asked Qualtrics support and have always received our answer nearly immediately (I think in maybe 10 times, only once did a support person need to call us back). Qualtrics support is dedicated to solving customer issues right, and in the first contact, if at all possible

I still use it. It does everything you need an online survey to do. From heat mapping to complex skip logic and display logic. I use it weekly and it never disappoints

I like being able to easily integrate new colleagues by simply giving them a log in user name and password

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.

]Qualtrics] CoreXM is great if you want something that is a little more [long] lasting and impactful than a simple survey engine, but aren't quite ready for something that is a long term sustainable program. I would put [Qualtrics] CoreXM squarely in the large, defined project phase. CX is more of the program phase, and other lessor vendors are great for the pre-project definition phase

• Increased productivity due to the highly intuitive user-interface and template saving capabilities.
• Reporting and analytics are extremely valuable. Our team can track responses and share feedback/results extremely quickly.
• If a user has created a great template, they can share to external teams quite easily. It helps other departments!
