Likelihood to Recommend 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 use this product you will be failing ADA and WCAG 2.1 (EU Directive for public sector websites and mobile apps). In my opinion, you will be vulnerable to lawsuits.
Read full review Pros The user interface is quite user friendly Variety of tests Access and variety of help on how to run tests, as well as educational information on which tests to run for your use case Read full review Continuous feedback such as CSAT or NPS score. Monitors feedback trends on recurring surveys through analytics dashboard. In context, in the moment data rather than during a follow up survey. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review Styling and positioning of the 'Feedback' button could be improved with more options provided. Right now it seems very basic. Triggered surveys and popups would also benefit for more styling and control over how the survey is presented to users. Sometimes it can be hard to match your brand to the out-of-box options available. I've seen more flexible versions of this in other providers. Notifications of negative feedback (delivered via email) could be improved. We like to try and take immediate action and the notifications haven't always made this possible. I'd also like to see more notification options added to triggered campaigns and surveys. Read full review Usability 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.
Read full review The interface to configure the questionary is quite easy to use. It helps to give autonomy to marketing teams. Once the initial setup is made (integrating a basic javascript code on your website), you can easily deploy any questionary on any page of your website. Usabilla is a very flexible tool overall.
Read full review Support Rating 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

Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review I have
Hotjar ,
Sprig , and Usabilla in my workplace. Usabilla unfortunately has the most limited feature set of the 3 options. The difficulty of administering a Usabilla survey on mobile is a big blocker for my projects.
Sprig and
Hotjar both allow mobile and allow video recordings (either of a user's screen or a user's webcam for impromptu interviews).
