Optimal Workshop vs. Quantcast Measure

Optimal Workshop is great for UX testing for those with a budget to do so. This may be a little on the expensive side for smaller businesses, but definitely not anything crazy expensive. The insights that you get out of these tests are invaluable and can be the difference between launching a site and succeeding/failing.

If you can control how data can be used for marketing and knowing who to cater to your content, too, this is super useful. If there's not much, you can do WITH the data you're provided, and it'd be of no use. It's a must if you need to dig deeper into your audience, though.

• The recruitment panelists are not professional, nor do they take the tasks seriously. You are going to get a lot of bad data.
• They are HQ'd outside the US and must have a small team because the customer service is the absolute WORST I've experienced in their industry.
• They pride themselves on documentation, but when they fail to document something they blame the customer for the mistake.
• There are way too many limitations with the tool after you launch, limited integrations, and poor survey questionnaire options. The tool itself is far too basic for most sites, especially B2B.

• Even more details
• Some of the generalizations of data feel vague.

Excellent and easy platform to use. Easy to onboard new members of the team. Easy to set up tests and follow number of participants performing the test. Easy to plug into other platforms to record participants. Excellent reporting. Easy to share reports with stakeholders. Easy to recruit through platform, however the quality of participants can be better.

The support has been good. No complaints. I have not needed to contact support more than 1-2 times when I was first getting set up, because the tools work well and are pretty straight forward. They do have good documentation

I haven't really worked with their support.

For the price as it is very convenient for first-time beginners, its intuitiveness both for the one who is designing the activities and for those who have to interact with them. The fact that it collects and gathers the data into insights of the overall responses collected by all users.

Quantcast's advantage over other tools is that it is 1) free (as is Google Analytics), but that it is a more easy-to-use and basic tool than Google Analytics. Quantcast does not provide the depth of analytics of other tools like Google Analytics or SimilarWeb, but it provides a good starting point for someone looking to venture into web analytics.
