Dovetail vs. Marvin

Very good for a research repository where researchers need to go back and reference or search for studies. Especially helpful for a large team with many sub-teams and many stakeholders. Maybe less helpful for a smaller team, but really, I think anyone seeking a research repository and easy video transcription and transcription tagging would find it helpful

• Chat to docs is a powerful feature for validating stakeholder ideas and providing real user insights, next to a summary and doc I can send along in as little as 5 min.
• The flexibility of the database works for multiple types of org cultures (e.g,. one that is more eng. centric likes things organized by feature, whereas more user centric orgs can easily tag and adjust for user themes and needs)
• Dynamic highlighting and auto suggest has improves and saves a lot of time manually tagging user quotes and interviews.

• Dovetail tends to suggest themes based on what 1 user has said. As a UX Researcher, I cannot use this data because there isn't enough evidence to justify it. I need to see larger patterns across more users.
• I find the channels incredibly hard to identify themes - the UI is super confusing, and I've never managed to get my head around it, so I just ignore it.
• I wish the 'published' button would come back in Docs. Right now, Docs show up in search results while we are still drafting them and don't want them visible to the organization yet.
• On the Contacts page, I need to be able to search by any of the fields (and not just the name).

We are currently evaluating this tool and it would depend on the "usage credit" model that Dovetail is moving toward. Depending on our current usage and the cost change that might occur with that, I would assume there is a likelihood that we may not renew. I would like for us to renew, however it is up to our product financial decision makers

It takes a lot of getting used to in order to effectively navigate the folder structure, project tabs, project views, etc. It's why I haven't been able to just hand over access to a project manager or leader and trust that they will be able to find value quickly. Because of this, usage and value has been restricted mostly to the UX team.

I’ve never had any access issues with Dovetail, so I don’t see any problems in that area.

Regarding performance, I would say it’s satisfactory. Adding data and transcriptions is really fast and efficient, and can be done in the background, so I’m never hindered by these aspects. However, all the new AI-generated features are still somewhat slow to run. It’s nothing major, but it should improve in the future.

Support was good, especially when it comes to the capability of your support agents and engineers. But as i am located in Europe, the difference in the time zone made it hard to communicate with your offices and kept my work way back

The training went very well, and we co-built it to really address our needs. I also think it was beneficial to have feedback coming from someone other than myself (since I manage the tool), as it helped reinforce the points I wanted to highlight. The team’s feedback on the training was very positive.

We currently have access to both of the listed programs through our company, but they were lacking in the ability to either accurately transcribe the interviews (which would lead to extra effort and time going in to correct the transcription errors) or would not analyze interviews at all and could only handle text which, again, would rely on accurate transcriptions to get insights and analysis. Having it all-in-one was the much better option.

It’s very expensive, and we use a lot of features in beta. I think we could also be rewarded for our usage and frequent feedback on the tool.

Management is quite straightforward; it’s easy to change access if certain stakeholders need to use it. The repository features are accessible to all teams, making it a good entry point into the tool. The more people use it, the more powerful the tool becomes, so it seems truly scalable to me. The limits are more financial, in terms of accessing additional features.

• Time saving. As I mentioned before, I save a lot of time by using Dovetail. What could take me 5 hours takes me now 2. (Aprox)
• AI helping with the insights. Using the chat to ask to to extract certain highlights is very helpful when generating my report. Saving me time.
