Satmetrix (discontinued) vs. UserTesting

Satmetrix is best suited if you don't currently use Salesforce. A lot of its main selling points are negated by the virtue of having Salesforce. Case management is in Salesforce, reporting is in Salesforce, the structure that NPX imposes is actually clunky and unwieldy, and is much more streamlined on competing platforms such as GetFeedback and SurveyMonkey. The only thing that leaves is the consultative service on being best practice and I don't really get to see any of that.

Testing Figma prototypes, websites, mobile apps works well. Testing remotely or in person works well. If the product is not completely prototyped or give extensive instruction, then the user can get stuck and abandon the test. When in person, it is easy to fix the problem, however if a test is remotely conducted, then when something goes wrong it might crash the entire test and a new test is then needed.

• Ease of use; SaaS solution, all web based - simple, straightforward and easy to use
• Multi lingual; we are able to use multiple languages for our surveys
• Reporting is very flexible; reports can be run for pretty much any data point that you can capture!

• Product Manager who follows up on your UserTesting usage and gives advice/support when you need it.
• UserTesting University is a great platform to learn how to use UT and general information about research.
• UserTesting can find participants quickly, so you won't need to wait long before you can start the analysis.

• Implementation did not go as well as planned and there were problems.
• If you are running multiple surveys, slicing and dicing data is not that simple.

• A centralized platform to recommend products and use cases would be handy so that users can suggest what they could use more of.
• Integration with newer payment methods and gift card services could expand the user base.
• Some products are business-critical and thus require sophisticated testing. This service could be added.

The previous experience was so negative that even if they have improved since then it wouldn't help. Another more pertinent reason is because we have an existing 3 year contract with Medallia. Lastly, vendor transitions in our environment (B2B in 132 countries) is extremely painful. I've managed two of them and wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

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.

Initially, I found the platform daunting, having never used a comparable site. However, I attended a series of workshops hosted by the UserTesting team, and thanks to their expert approach, I picked it up very quickly—so much so that I can now confidently teach my colleagues how to use the platform effectively.

Perfectly fine. Never had any problems.

The regular CSR check ins are appreciated. They want to help facilitate us using the product to its fullest capacity. We've had regular trainings and office hours that help our team use the product better. Power sessions are also always appreciated, even just to pulse check a test plan or a panel criteria. They're always available and very helpful.

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.

I haven't evaluated any other products. Our executive team selected NPS as the preferred measurement of customer sentiment and Satmetrix is the only certification company I am aware of.

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.

• With the knowledge gained front he transactional surveys, Satmetrix helped us significantly improve our customer service processes.
• Combined with the relationship survey, we were ultimately able to improve our customer retention by over 20% within 2 years.

• Increase in conversion rate of checkout completion following a redesign influenced by UserTesting through design iterations
• Decrease in customer complaints regarding the checkout (-83%) following its redesign
• Faster time to completion for AB Testing programme, and higher ROI as a result as tests had a higher chance of winning
