Solid is a user testing solution featuring Anna, a virtual avatar, that moderates tests for the user. Solid allows researchers to run tests where testers don't behave unnaturally. They are not told to read scripts or think aloud in unusual sequences. This hurts their testing experience. Instead, Solid gives them space to go at their own pace, and to think aloud only when they become silent. Solid enables users to test prototypes, websites and native apps, or anything as long as a…

Maze User Testing is great if you're interested in doing user research from the comfort of your own desk. You can easily setup usability tests, surveys, card sorting and tree tests among other things to get a better understanding of how customers use your product. The only limitation at the moment with Maze that I can identify is only being able to do unmoderated tests, so if you'd like to be able to ask follow up questions in the moment, Maze is not the tool for you.

Alternatives Considered
Maze
A Lookback is an alternative option if you think Maze User Testing is quite expensive for you, but look back has a different approach to Maze User Testing. Lookback focuses on qualitative usability testing instead of quantitative UserTesting. And also, Maze User Testing has a free option but Lookback doesn't have it, but Lookback has a cheaper option at $19/month than Maze.
