PlaybookUX vs. UserTesting

PlaybookUX is fabulous for ad-hoc tests with small budgets, but can also scale up to larger projects easily. I've recommended the tool to several people and they love it, too!

UserTesting makes finding respondents super quick and easy. I'm always amazed at how quickly I can fully recruit for an unmoderated or moderated test and how fast contributors are to upload their videos. Contributors are also well-trained to answer a prompt in its entirety and always provide thoughtful answers.

• They recruited our demographic.
• Customer support was awesome.
• Studies are very easy to set up.

• Product Manager who follows up on your UserTesting usage and gives advice/support when you need it.
• UserTesting University is a great platform to learn how to use UT and general information about research.
• UserTesting can find participants quickly, so you won't need to wait long before you can start the analysis.

• With other testing platforms, I can update my profile, but I'm not sure how to do it with PlaybookUX.
• It would be nice to have a login location where I can see my available tests.

• A centralized platform to recommend products and use cases would be handy so that users can suggest what they could use more of.
• Integration with newer payment methods and gift card services could expand the user base.
• Some products are business-critical and thus require sophisticated testing. This service could be added.

I'm very happy with my experience of the product and the level of service and learning resources they provide. If the service becomes more expensive than it currently is then we might not be able to justify additional cost - but this is theoretical. I would recommend UserTesting and would ideally renew our contract.

Setting up a study only takes 5 mins. and you can preview a study before sending it out so you don't make any mistakes.

It can be difficult to organize our tests and go back and find information. I think the AI tools are helping and will help with this, but for now it is time consuming to sort through all of the tests and information and then synthesize it and share it with others. It just takes a lot of time.

Perfectly fine. Never had any problems.

Very responsive when I had a technical question about a test.

I've used the "power hour," as I think it's called. This really helped me gain a greater understanding of my specific needs and wants from the platform. This excellent service points to the excellent relationship UserTesting provides its clients. I would recommend this service to any of my colleagues.

From a technical perspective, the implementation was extremely smooth. Most of the change management / implementation hurdles were clearing use of the tool through our various security, legal, and information privacy teams. Once these concerns were addressed (UserTesting.com was very helpful in providing all the needed documentation), the implementation process was very simple and we were able to get going right away.

Both have different set of unique features and usability.

Incentivized

The quality of the participants: they usually have good feedback and act like "professional" users. Which is good when we want a few insights in a short amount of time. Also, the interface is good. I miss having more features, like a good transcription tool like we have in Condens

The package we have limits the number of people who can set up tests. This prevents us from scaling the use of the platform.

Incentivized

• Quick testing at scale
• Excellent price points

Incentivized

• Increase in conversion rate of checkout completion following a redesign influenced by UserTesting through design iterations
• Decrease in customer complaints regarding the checkout (-83%) following its redesign
• Faster time to completion for AB Testing programme, and higher ROI as a result as tests had a higher chance of winning
