Pollfish vs. Verint Voice of the Customer

Despite its minor shortcomings, PollFish is still very good for startups that need to gauge their product idea's potential acceptance and customer demand, and also very useful for fine-tuning their branding, messaging, product features, and even pricing. This is so much better than traditional polling and surveying, which were more expensive and much slower in the past.

Verint Voice of the Customer is very well suited for measuring how satisfied (or dissatisfied) the customer base is in close to real time. Also well suited for identifying pain points across the experience. Not sure if the platform is well suited for measuring multiple interactions for a specified journey or a specific audience experiencing a specific journey

• Obtain people's opinions on a specific topic, both quantitatively and qualitatively, as it has option for open answers.
• Being able to segment my audience not only by country and state, but also by city and even socioeconomic level (something that is particularly difficult outside of the United States).
• Be able to insert videos in order to make quick creativity tests.
• Obtain quick results. Most of the times in only one day, even with specific segmentations.

Incentivized

• Excellent Customer Service, training resources.
• Stable Platform- If a user gives a low satisfaction score, Verint Voice of the Customer can alert support teams to reach out and resolve the issue promptly.
• Verint Voice of the Customer gathers customer feedback on OhioMeansJobs.com, it can capture survey responses after job searches, resume uploads, or virtual workshops, giving a holistic view of user experience.

• The survey editor UI can be quite annoying. The way it scrolls back up to the top of the page whenever I click on a question to edit it makes it so that the page is constantly moving.
• Oftentimes I get an "oops an error occurred" message but it never actually explains what is going wrong.
• Customer support can sometimes take a long time to respond making it challenging when faced with a platform question or capability I am not familiar with.

• Integrating with Google Analytics did take several sessions with their support team, so that could use improving
• Needed additional assistance from their technical team because of the configuration
• Limited customization for standard deployment survey templates. Some reports are a bit outdated

The cost versus product is a good value, so it all depends on the customer's needs/wants, and of course, budget

For what it is and what it offers, I think it is very user friendly, intuitive and reactive. As long as you don't treat it as a powerful full service research tool and look at it more as the scrappy DIY option, it will actually exceed expectations.

Overall usability is easy and while I have been using it for years and used to it, new users seem to be able to create surveys without any training or hand holding. Simply create a login and they can figure it out themselves quickly because of the intuitive nature of the layout. Verint could use to improve or update the user interface as it seems very dated visually.

Every support contact I have had, be it by email, live chat or phone, I have had my issue resolved very quickly, efficiently and professionally by a knowledgeable and well trained support team member. Having worked in technical support many years ago myself, I can appreciate the level of service and quality of support offered by Verint. I would, without hesitation, say that Verint offers one of the best support experiences out there.

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 sacrifice of the quality of data.

OpinionLab is one of the few out there that does two things very well in it's space: 1. Customer Feedback - just feedback, not surveys. Feedback is free text without more than one or two structured questions. Most survey systems offer too many options, and their reporting is made for structured data analysis not analysis of the open text fields. Some of the other tools viewed did not have the best features for medium or large scale deployment, from an analysis perspective, real-time data extract and download, or customization for branding.
