Comparison of Accessibility Testing features of Product A and Product B
This is pretty middle of the road. It does a good job of picking out some of the low-hanging fruit, but it's not going properly evaluate semantic structure and will pop several false positives. Additionally, the tools are incomplete. For instance, the contrast editor will allow you to test your colors with sliders so you can get the closest color that passes; however, that isn't how color palettes work, you generally don't get to change a companies palette without a lot of pain; furthermore, there is no ability to adjust the font-size and both font-size AND color are used to determine contrast requirements. Oh, and they use points VS pixels...nobody is using points on the web even if the ADA uses them in their fairly dated guidelines. Text from the actual contrast editor "Text is present that has a contrast ratio less than 4.5:1, or large text (larger than 18 point or 14 point bold) has a contrast ratio less than 3:1.". 14pt = 18.66 pixels, so I can see their logic even if I don't agree with it
Weave integrates with Nextech which is a nice tech stack setup for phone, EMR, text messaging, appointment reminders, voicemail, etc. It would also work well for small medical practices that can use it as an all-in-one system and aren't super worried about tracking where patient leads are coming from (Weave is not a CRM or marketing automation platform). For larger, more complex organizations, they may find a greater need for enhanced integrations with a CRM or marketing automation platform which is not a strong suit of Weave
For this, I'm speaking specifically to the Siteimprove browser plugin. The Siteimprove plugin: Allows to filter on guideline level Catches a few more errors than WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool, but comes pretty close But, both do a great job in all other aspects WebAIM shines in its simplicity of overlaying of errors and warnings on the page. I think its real benefit is a lower learning curve on understanding how to use the tool
Better phone systems than Comcast. More streamlined and easier to use than Solutionreach with a more focused feature set. Integrates with Nextech. Solutionreach does have the best custom appointment reminders and recall email marketing functionality in the HIPPA-compliant industry, in my experience
