FluidSurveys (Discontinued) vs. Similarweb

For surveys, and for centralized info-gathering, FluidSurveys provides an excellent solution. There are other programs out there which provide a wider range of solutions (i.e., they can be used for surveying AND comprehensive online engagement, rather than just a data-gathering type of consultation); however, for programming and implementing surveys, FluidSurveys has an effective variety of strengths and options that make it optimal for users who are focused specifically on surveys.

Similarweb is our go-to tool for SEO research. We can identify high-value keywords, track our rankings, and monitor changes in our website's traffic. This data is invaluable for optimizing our content and ensuring we rank high on search engine results pages.

• User-friendly. For the majority of the general and basic tools you can use with FluidSurveys to build surveys are simple to use and intuitive. When certain issues come up, the service is quick (chat room) and effective.
• Anonymity: the software has the reputation of being safer in terms of safeguarding private information the respondents share by answering surveys (this is mainly due to the fact that the servers are in Canada). Thus, indirectly, they increase response rates.
• Extensive possibilities: FluidSurveys offers a plethora of possibilities and options that really renders the experience interesting in terms of micro-managing each details of the surveys you are sending out there. When the invitation leaves by email, it is exactly how you want it.

• Competitive Analysis: Similarweb has provided us with a comprehensive toolkit for analyzing web traffic and audience behavior for various sports teams, leagues, and players. We can compare and contrast their online presence, helping us gain a competitive edge by understanding their digital strategies.
• Sponsorship Decisions: Making informed sponsorship decisions is vital in sports. Similarweb assists us in evaluating potential sponsorships by providing insights into the online presence and reach of potential partners.
• Audience Demographics: One of the standout features of Similarweb is its ability to provide detailed audience demographics. We can pinpoint the age groups, locations, and interests of online visitors, which is crucial for tailoring content, promotions, and sponsorship deals effectively.

• There should be more flexibility and customizability with regard to survey design (e.g. background, fonts...)

• Sometimes I find it takes time to find exactly where a certain analysis I had looked at previously is when I go to replicated. Website could be streamlined that way.
• You can only compare 5 companies at a time on the website but often I'd like to compare more. You can always download the data to compare two different searches, but that adds time.

I think the average person can very quickly pick up on the basics of the system: they would have no problems programming and launching a basic survey. Organizations may benefit from having people of different backgrounds getting their hands dirty in the system: at a minimum, both web programmers and opinion research advisors should be solicited for input or help.

Similarweb is a very easy to use tool and gives us data on the go. It takes only a few clicks to get the relevant data. However, I have deducted 2 points as it only allows us to add 5 websites at a time on the platform, and data availability is only for the last 37 months.

Support is just helpful and effective when you need them; we have only needed to contact them once about a misunderstanding while setting up our Market Analysis. Since we don't really contact them too often, it's hard to offer anything but a positive rating from the single positive experience we had with tech support.

Although I do not have much experience with Survey Monkey, the only two reasons why I choose FluidSurveys is that clients demand it (privacy and anonymity) and because managing multiple surveys at a time is easier. As for ODK Collect, I think it is a valuable alternative to FluidSurveys if you have time to learn the coding (not very complicated). ODK is a little less user friendly and you cannot address small details as you can with FluidSurveys (e.g.: formatting).

Whilst data.ai has strong app competitor intelligence data, Similarweb do a better job of showing the upstream and downstair behaviour across desktop and mobile web. Additionally, Similarweb's channel marketing mix goes deeper and allows us to understand a wider set of channels and be able to get a holistic understanding of our overall marketing strategy performance
