    UserTesting
    UserTesting has been great for moderated customer interviews/usability testing as well as for unmoderated testing of messaging, imagery, prototypes and live experiences. I would say that the scope of what you want needs to be limited, as the participants are only paid so much and tests are supposed to not exceed a certain amount of time. For customer interviews, I think it can be difficult to onboard customers to UserTesting if they have never used it before. If I set up interviews, I don't even have them use the UserTesting scheduling tool, I actually set up all the interviews with the customers myself through the tool (being mindful of time zones!). When we run the meeting, they really don't even know UserTesting is involved. Might be nice for UserTesting to allow the upload/connecting to of a Zoom interview and let it do the transcription/analysis from there.

    Pros
    Renderforest
    • It's a great place for anyone who wants to improve their business by appearing very professional.
    • Easy to use and to create astonishing vibes with your clients.
    • Communication is very professional and really, really short response period.
    • For those who are more professional but have no time or ideas about what to make for their own business, inspiration is a place called Renderforest

    Cons
    Renderforest
    • Uploading video is slow, processing time and rendering video are often jammed.
    • Some templates have more restrictions, such as the number of words in the title, the number of pictures, the size of pictures and so on.
    • Prices for individual users are not very friendly.

    UserTesting
    • Sometimes there are restrictions around types of research that can be used for moderated user-testing with our own users.
    • For tests on relatively small areas of a website or app, the AI analysis seems rather overblown, like it's trying too hard to come up with something insightful when the test is actually about something quite small (e.g. structure of a mobile app menu).
    • It's difficult to invite our own users to unmoderated user-testing because they wouldn't know how the UserTesting interface works - this is particularly an issue for mobile research.

    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.

    Usability
    Renderforest
    It was very easy. They have a nice help video to guide you along the way that you can turn off if you chose. But It was a quick process and everything tied together very well. I am very pleased with the final product. I will definitely use them again.

    It's very good, I have used other tools in the past and this is by far the most intuitive and user friendly. Testament to this is the ease with which other non researchers who have been onboarded to the tool with our additional seat have found it easy to use

    Performance
    Renderforest
    Renderforest Video has great performance. In all the time I have used it, I haven't ever really had to wait for anything to be done, except for the rendering time. The reason for not giving the product a full 10 out of 10 is that the page load times in the wizard have left me frustrated at times. This, though, is most likely the result of internet service in a 3rd world country, as opposed to a slow server.

    I have contacted UserTesting's customer service online, by email, or by phone a few times, and each time, I have encountered the same professionalism and expertise. Even in person during a work event, they were there, and it was the same experience.

    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.

    Renderforest is far superior. More intuitive and has a bunch of helpful templates. I've found that iMovie lacked in any direction and though there is a lot of freedom, for people who need to make quick and effective media, Renderforest is the better choice. I have really enjoyed my use of it.

    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.

    • More time can be spent on interviewing clients and researching and development instead of creating quality graphics.
    • The subscription payment option saves money since we know we need them constantly in the future.
    • The quality of the content is superior to the ability of our on-site graphic design team at less than half the cost.
