Again, when it comes to quick, DIY research it is one of the best options I've seen! Capable of a lot and very reliable, stable platform with quality respondents. They also automatically do bad data checks while in field, which saves time and effort on the back end and makes it easier to trust the results. Also, passing this to a colleague who is less skilled when it comes to research is less of an issue since their team also reviews every survey before launch

Pros
Prodege LLC
  • Pollfish is very intuitive to use. If you understand how survey questions and answer options are structured, building the surveys themselves is pretty simple.
  • When you do run into problems, the customer service through the chat agent on the site is second to none. They are always very responsive and have answered any question I've ever had very quickly and very clearly.
  • Pollfish automatically can break you data down into several interesting subcategories. But it's also very easy to break your pool down into one that's very custom, and that's something that other survey companies charge quite a bit for.

  • Easy to use - easy to create surveys, send to participants and review the results
  • The library of ready to use templates is so helpful!
  • The large variety of question types helps to keep the survey interesting for the participant.
  • The "smart" question logic is amazing. I love having a follow up question appear depending on how the participant answers a previous question.

Cons
Prodege LLC
  • Prohibiting participants who don't fit your requirements. I've seen times where someone will literally say in a free responses question that they marked an answer, got rejected from a study, then opened the link again and selected a new answer to be able to participate.
  • An easy way to remove participants who are "bad responses" and have the results view upload seamlessly.
  • Maybe an AI function that helps you remove bias from quesitons.

SoGoSurvey
  • Providing users the ability to follow along a specific question example (eg. placeholder text in questions that users can see what the answer might look like)
  • Better media management and implementation (eg. placing images/videos/gifs/etc. as standalone assets in the survey)
  • Making the images added into a survey responsive to the screen they are being viewed on (eg. any images added to a survey do not adjust to the size of the screen, consequently showing up very small on mobile/tablet view)
  • Exporting the survey to Word looks horrible - we'd love if the survey could be exported the way it looks when live into a similar-looking Word document or template

Will definitely use the software again as soon as we need another survey to be conducted.

Usability
Prodege LLC
I think it is limited in being a browser only application. If there was a native software application that hosted Pollfish to eliminate some of the lag time working in surveys, I think that would be a big value add. Sometimes the platform gets too bogged online when trying to add things into the survey.

Everything on the platform is laid out logically and in a manner that even our less technical administrators can go onto the system and create/manage any surveys or feedback questionnaires. The options for distribution of these surveys are also simple and straight forward with all available choices showing. Our users don't need to know the ins and outs of the system to be able to use it.

I had an issue whereby I used a free trial that ended, locking me out of my account. I contacted their customer service to help with this issue, which they resolved in under half an hour. I was extremely impressed with their speed and quality of service, which led me to filling out this review!

Alternatives Considered
Prodege LLC
Honestly, it came down to having a user-friendly platform at an affordable cost. For the type of analysis we do, we don’t need a heavy, highly complex solution like Qualtrics -- after trying it, we found it far too intimidating and expensive to maintain. Pollfish provides a strong balance of capabilities with reliable data, and we can create, launch, and collect results within hours. I’ve considered exploring other options, but Pollfish continues to reinvest in the platform and add value, which has kept it aligned with our business needs.

I evaluated several different products, including SurveyMonkey. SoGoSurvey appeared to have the most features at the best value. Unfortunately, the "free" service didn't satisfy our needs and we had to upgrade during the first survey. I found SurveyMonkey and SoGoSurvey to be very comparable.

Return on Investment
Prodege LLC
  • At least a couple of our new business wins this year were attributed to prospective clients appreciating the thorough research our new business team conducted preparing for the pitch. We used Pollfish to collect the data for that research.
  • We accelerated several deliverables being able to design, field and analyze surveys "un-house" using Pollfish rather than waiting for a 3rd party full-service vendor to return the survey data to us.

  • Cost. The software is very reasonably priced when judged against its functionality. The cost and risk of deploying paper surveys, coupled with the additional time it would take to input the data before analysis, means we have a lot less to worry about, have saved time and money.
  • Data and reputation. Security of data is important to us. Using this software has enhanced our credibility with clients. We're serious about data security and this software shows that we are.
  • Ethics and reputation. We are also serious about achieving the highest ethical standards in research, and nothing in this software impedes our ability to meet these standards.
  • Speed. The online training, all of which has been 1-2-1, helped me get to grips with the software and deploy it quickly. The quality of training is very high indeed.
