Siteimprove vs. All in One Accessibility

Siteimprove works well for managing the health and performance of your customer-facing sites in terms of performance, digital experience, and accessibility. It also helps to define policies to proactively avoid experience breaks or issues for customers before they occur. It can improve by providing more options to configure policies for large sites with thousands of pages.

It helps us meet ADA, WCAG, and other accessibility standards effortlessly, reducing the risk of legal issues. Visitors with visual impairments, motor disabilities, or cognitive challenges benefit from features like screen readers, contrast adjustments, and keyboard navigation. The widget’s simple installation allowed us to make our website more accessible without extensive development work.

• User-friendly customisable dashboards, easy to make a dashboard from a template, or create your own, and add in whichever 'widgets' are relevant for what you are looking at
• Flagging words to review, allowing users to check and confirm if the word is 'accepted' or is a misspelling

• I don't like that there are different navigation paths to go from point A to point B. When I want to navigate to a specific place, I have more than one way to get there, which means I have to make a decision about how I want to there and I'd rather the designer make that design based on what would be most efficient for me.

Tool has undergone numerous changes, both to function and UX/CX. Makes it less than user friendly at times. But on the other hand, that does indicate a willingness to improve the product in a continual manner - which they've done nearly year after year - but it's always a case of who moved my cheese with each new iteration.

I would rate All in One Accessibility's overall usability as a 9 out of 10. At Vico, we found the installation process to be quick, making it easy to configure accessibility features without needing extensive technical expertise. The tool's simplicity allowed us to quickly improve our website's accessibility compliance, enhancing the user experience for a broader audience. The only slight drawback is that for custom accessibility and full remediation needs, additional manual tweaks may occasionally be required, which prevented a perfect score. Overall, its efficiency and ease-of-use significantly contribute to our digital strategy.

I've used support often and it has been responsive, thorough and considerate of our needs. I can get a tech right away, they understand the issue, and work with us to resolve it. Often the problem is with the site we are trying to scan, sometimes it is with their product. I appreciate that they go beyond support into continually helping us implement SiteImprove in more places with 3rd party integration.

We have used or tested other tools that get installed on a computer or that are hosted online, but none of them offer the features that come with Siteimprove. TotalValidator Pro will check your site for accessibility issues, but it is a manual check and there is no historical reporting. I can;t remember the names of the other online solutions, but even if they offered similar features as Siteimprove, they were all very expensive .
