accessiBe vs. WAVE Web Accessibility Evaluation Tool

I have found this tool on many sites and offers solutions for people to have options to change the style of the website even if they are not disabled. Today everyone is looking for a personal experience and this tool can offer that to all, this is really evident when you read terminology on a website that you might not understand. The user interface has a search web option so you can find the meaning of items that you may not have understood by only being on the website.

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

• Adding a font changer especially for people with Dyslexia.
• ability to gather Closed Captions or Read video transcripts.
• ability to control videos from the user interface, some embedded videos do not have the option to pause or rewind video.
• When viewing video not to be taken away from the site or offer alternatives that are not relevant to the site. Website owners often use embedded videos from YouTube which then offers other videos that are not related. AccessiBe should be able to play the embed link in a separate iframe which can auto-close once the video is over.

I have called several times and my questions were always answered right away.

We have not used any other ADA plugins. We did evaluate what was available from custom coding - which would have been far too expensive to WordPress plugins that were not fully supported. When you see what is available and weigh the pros/cons of other service providers there are really no other options out there that stack up to their product.

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
