Pollfish is the most cost effective and the quickest survey platform. However there are questions when it comes to the actual reliability of the results that are retrieved from Pollfish surveys. However, its speed makes it tough to use other platforms, even at a potential …
The logic path and question type of options is lot stronger. You're able to launch a survey to Pollfish audience, which other survey services don't have.
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
Typeform is definitely a leader in the online survey space and that's for a reason. Between logic mapping and the ease of use for the end user, it's a solid app. The unfortunate thing, however, is the price tag--particularly considering the protection you receive from bots. Typeform only allows a certain number of responses at certain package levels, ie: the lowest level, you get a very limited number of responses but in order to receive more responses before your survey is locked, you must upgrade. This is what ultimately lead us to cancel with them. When you post a survey on Typeform, that survey is automatically posted publicly on their website--making it widely available to bots. Typeform offers no easy form of protection like a standardized captcha that you can add to the survey in order to filter bots out. Instead, there are several "work arounds" that they advise users to do that have very limited degrees of success. A quick online search shows that Typeform knows this is clearly an issue, yet they have yet to build in a bot-prevention feature. Since their plan prices vary by number of responses, it seems that they have no incentive to limit the amount of bots filling out surveys I believe. Ultimately, we canceled because, although the app is powerful, it just seemed like their business practices were unethical in my opinion.
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.
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.
The pricing structure is a little steep, especially for the Pro+ plan. It would be nice if they had an a la carte option because there are some features we are paying for that we will never use.
When creating forms, sometimes the cursor will inexplicably leave the field you are typing in and leave you with incomplete sentences.
Even though we are paying for our use, we still have the Typeform branding on our forms, which I think should be removed once you upgrade from the basic plan.
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.
Typeform takes a little bit of getting used to. Compared to Google Forms there are a lot more parts to the software and customizing the form isn't as intuitive. I have also found that embedding it into one smaller section of a webpage seamlessly can be a little tricky. But everything can be figured out eventually and the analytics are very good.
I haven't used the support portion of Typeform, as everything was quite easy to use. I have never encountered a situation where I did not know what to do or how to fix something myself. Typeform is very easy to adopt within any organization, no matter if you understand tech or not.
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.
When looking for a feature rich & flexible / customizable solution, Typeform beats out everyone. However, for specific use cases (like NPS), AskNicely is a clear winner in terms of features, but is much too expensive. Typeform is also fun to use, especially compared to Wufoo which seems so out of date
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.
Typeform has helped guide our Customer Success, Product, and Marketing teams in strategizing how to engage with customers better, and it has also given us a quick and easy way to do so! By collecting feedback and being able to share it across internal teams, we can coordinate our efforts to build our customers a better tool.
Typeform has proved to be an elegant solution to one of our earlier vexing problems (previous survey tools that looked annoying, had extremely limited branding options/were not customizable, and didn't integrate well with the rest of our tool set) while not breaking the bank for us - it's a very reasonable price point and does WAY more than the previous tools we were paying just as much for.
