Overall Satisfaction with UserTesting

I am the sole user researcher at my organization, however, I use UserTesting to validate many aspects of the business. I use the tool to validate UX through prototype testing. I also use the tool to gather feedback on product-market fit for new directions to take business from live 1:1 interviews with our target market. This tool allows us to have the voice of the customer amplified throughout our org.
  • Live 1:1 interviews with target market.
  • Sources participants in your target market for you.
  • Sourcing very niche participants is difficult (ex: specific city and specific job title).
  • The tool is very expensive for a startup.
  • UserTesting has changed the course of what we've launched in the marketplace based on feedback from users.
  • UserTesting allows us to gather impressions from our target market before we ship so we can validate that what we are shipping is something users want.
The pros:
  • UserTesting is a great tool, and overall their customer service has been great.
  • Their CS agents are quick to respond on chat and provide helpful answers.
  • Their help docs are actually helpful.
  • They have a booming community of other user researchers who are willing to help each other in their community forum.
The cons:
  • UserTesting didn't turn on a feature that I paid for, for about 6 months and didn't reimburse me for the months that it wasn't turned on. This was frustrating
