UserZoom vs Zoom

• Quantitative testing can be done on the cheap compared to other quant tools or vendors... once you buy the license, you only pay for additional recruiting and you are managing the project, so there isn't the high cost of having other vendors doing the project management or running a survey etc.
• Farily robust means of tracking and recording data. I also relied heavily on the excel spreadsheet of all the raw data, which you can have UZ customize for you to get what you need.
• Great support system from the UserZoom team - they have researchers who can help with coding and also provide research support for a very good price.
• Also they have tree testing, card sorting, survey capabilities (in addition to usability testing)... and mobile testing. and they seem to be continously be developing the tool to support additional methods.

• The ease of hosting & joining meetings with a simple URL.
• The ability to screen-share and share control of screens seamlessly makes collaboration even better.
• Participants limit in a zoom meeting is way better than other collaboration tools.
• Ability to restrict unwanted users from joining the meeting even with the meeting password.

• Compared with some other tools, because their video conferencing platform is web-based (vs. using Zoom, which has a desktop app), I find the connection buffers a lot and it's kind of annoying
• Their screening tool on the UserZoom side (not Go) is clunky. Just let me select May, Must, or Should not for criteria rather than the weird interface design they have now.
• Logic panel is a little confusing, sometimes I do a double-take, sometimes it's wonky and resets itself. It's just not as easy to use as it could be.
• They haven't integrated UserZoom and UserZoom Go (formerly Validately)
• It's expensive!
• We signed up for a high sample size license with unlimited tests, but we're finding their panel doesn't fill as fast as their biggest competitor, UserTesting. We've struggled to fill n=100 sample tests with fairly general criteria.
• A lot of their licenses only allow limited concurrent studies, whereas UserTesting had unlimited tests that you could launch at a time. It's slowed us down.

• Sharing zoom complete information is not visible on the screen, and also a bit is confusing minimizing and maximizing.
• Every time someone enters the chat, a chat box appears on my screen, and some features are missing from this version.
• Automatic conference connection based on a schedule isn't an option, and neither is enhanced security measures.

• Overall the ROI has been fairly useful. The price for the tool itself on occasional use cuts into our profit margin, and as I mentioned previously it's difficult to predict how much UserZoom will charge for a given project.
• On a positive note, UserZoom allows us to run projects that we wouldn't be able to on any other tool. We have landed projects with new clients that wouldn't be possible without UserZoom, so that helps drive future business in other areas.
• On the negative side, the fact that UserZoom also provides consulting research services means we can sometimes be in direct competition with them over clients, which allows them to beat our pricing since they own the tool. All's fair in love and war, but it is a tricky situation.

• It enables me to send and receive messages from my team members during video calls, handling online presentations.
• With the ability to quickly stop, mute, and even receive notifications when someone enters or exits the meeting room, I'm never obligated to show up while making a call.
• It is possible to record online meetings for future reference and more effective customer service. As we dealt with a lockdown, Zoom helped our business run smoothly.
