UserTesting
UserTesting is excellent for solving complex content problems. A lot of work I do is based on compliance messaging, some of which is convoluted and confusing for users. If I can test variants of the content on users to find a way that's both compliant and user friendly then I've done my job well, UserTesting is essential in helping me do that. Regarding less appropriate scenarios, I honestly can't think of anything specific that affects my career. It would not be easy to use for physical product testing, considering the platform is online only.

UserTesting
  • Post AB testing problem solving to understand why experiences didn't get the intended results
  • Discovery and framing to learn what the users needs are
  • Early iterative prototyping to learn what users think about new mental models and experiences
  • Late stage prototyping to validate the experience
  • To learn about content and what users think about it

Cons

No answers on this topic
UserTesting
  • Missing the ability to create folders or tag tests which have been sent out in multiple or successive rounds
  • Word clouds for any verbal responses e.g. describe this page in 3 words
  • More logic to how highlight reels are created, or info pop ups on why they have been created/any interesting segments (this may be more of an AI part to the tool)

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.

UserTesting
I don't know if it's because of the way that the tasks/questions are inputted on the back end, especially with the different types of questions (verbal, multiple choice, scale, etc), I only found out after I've launched a test an error with my test plan even after I've gone through multiple rounds of review before launching. My eyes don't seem to catch errors well on the back-end even despite me working off a Google document of the test plan

We already had some meetings with the team, and the support was great. Also, e-mail responses used to be fast, and the CS team seems to be always available to help. Recently, we had problems recruiting participants, so they arranged a meeting to discuss this topic. So the support is great

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.

User Testing is so much easier to use than other user testing tools. It's also pretty good for transcription and now they do transcription in Spanish, which is also an important part of my work and that was one of the reasons I used Dovetail. Now I still use Dovetail as it's a much better option for a research repository than user testing when using multiple research tools.

The package we have limits the number of people who can set up tests. This prevents us from scaling the use of the platform.

  • Cost savings of over $100K as we dont involve our research vendors as much as we used to do in the past
  • Better tested experience get out in the market quickly even when we don't have enough time available with our researchers; our designers who are well-trained on usertesting.com can test out quickly
