    REDCap surveys are very suitable for clinical trials and public health surveys. It's less appropriate for market researches .

    I think if you are surveying often to gather data, Sogolytics is a great product. If you are not seeking in-depth data, there are certainly more affordable options. As a non-profit, we find this to be a great tool for in-depth data and easy-to-use reports. The report feature is our main draw to this product; it is visually appealing, easy to share, and translates.

    Pros
    Vanderbilt University
    • Customization. I can use HTML to change format but there are also a ton of built in functionality for branching logic, matrix configuration, slider scales, etc.
    • Security. HIPPA compliance is extremely important for medical research and REDCap ensures our data is safe.
    • Variety of use. Being able to send both surveys and create forms for internal use makes the use cases numerous.

    • 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.

    • I don't really see many issues with REDCap.

    • 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

    It is very interesting to me especially that it meets all my needs. The libraries makes the job even much easier, since you can just make a few adjustments to the appropriate template chosen

    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!

    SurveyMonkey and Google Forms have similar features for surveys but they lack the form options and user interface. They are also not HIPPA compliant so we are not able to collect any identifying information which is usually an issue in research when we are tracking participants. Many institutional review boards won't even approve a study without a HIPPA compliant data collection service.

    In summary, Sogolytics has proven to be the perfect fit for our pre and post-test assessments. Its seamless integration, efficient data collection, and powerful reporting capabilities have significantly improved our ability to track and communicate the impact of our programs. We highly recommend Sogolytics to organizations looking for a reliable and user-friendly data management solution.

    Return on Investment
    Vanderbilt University
    • REDCap allowed us to house all patient information in one single portal which helped us eliminate the need for paper copies. We moved our whole filing system to an electronic version when we became "live" on REDCap. It is also very convenient and accessible to have all of this data in one location.
    • A very positive impact is the ability for multiple users to see the same health and wellness information for each specific patient. Instead of constantly having to go back and forth via email, phone, etc. to ask about the patient; we could simply look up their information in REDCap and find all of the answers. It made our business much more efficient and made the patients feel as though we did our research prior to meeting with them.

    • Members were very appreciative of the survey requesting their input on Capital Projects. Too many time, 1 - 2 staff members or Board members make decisions for the entire membership, which is not always the best approach.
    • Hoping for actionable areas to improve once the results of the Membership Satisfaction survey completes.
