    From my experience, I believe that Vision Critical offers the best software to manage an insights community. They are great to work with, and my opinion has only improved over time. However, that doesn't mean it is the best survey software overall. If someone simply needs to program and distribute surveys, this may or may not be the right solution. There are some other really great survey tools on the market that are competitively priced and offer very intuitive interfaces (like Qualtrics). If you are going to recruit people to answer surveys or provide feedback on an ongoing basis (re-contacting and engaging with the same people repeatedly), though, Vision Critical would be my #1 recommendation.

    Cisco Webex Experience Management is well suited in handling live customer query. It helps in monitoring customer feedback and queries.It is very useful application for comparison of year on year data, month data and weekly data. It help in understanding customer life cycle. It can be used as an interaction tool with the customers by directly posing them questions about the services. It helps in Segmenting, targeting and positioning of your product or service in the long run. Cisco Webex Experience Management scenarios where it can be less appropriate are few. As it gives a lot on insights about customer feedback,customer tracing etc, it would not be useful in short term or for smaller business who are not focussing on the larger goals of the business

    Cons
    Alida
    • The functionality when creating a new questionnaire is rather clunky, particularly when there are a few conditional factors in the logical flow; being able to see those factors and how they apply with some sort of other logical layout would really help when creating a longer survey.
    • There are quite a few steps that aren't intuitive when launching a survey, for instance all the various dates (launch date, reserve date, survey date, etc etc etc). If there were a description field if you hovered above labeled areas of sections that explained what this field was for that would really help
    • It doesn't help either that the entire site is grey; it's a cold environment to be in for a long time, and the simple design makes it seem more clunky than it probably really is.

    • Not always intuitive or user friendly
    • Getting the most out of the software requires dedicated personnel/time
    • Not that useful unless you'll do something with the data

    Vision Critical often requires you to dump the data to a statistical program. I hate that step. You waste time, and improve the chance of data being lost, or changed.

    Usability
    Alida
    I think there is a ton of room to improve, in things as simple as aesthetics and other areas of logical flow when it comes to creating and then launching a survey, as well as providing descriptors for what each field is referencing. For instance, there are like 5 date fields to be filled out, but no button near them that says "this date will determine _________" and I am not about to go back into the training module, which was confusing enough to FIND, let alone work through to find just ONE answer.

    Vision Critical is more appealing visually but no where near as complex or robust. Vision Critical is also much more expensive though.

    • Our use of Vision Critical's software has allowed us to dramatically increase the amount of research that we do, at a much lower cost. Since there is no incremental cost for each survey we field, we can ask many questions we wouldn't have been able to otherwise.
    • Our use of an insights community has also sped up the research process, allowing us to write, program, field and report on a survey within only a few days.
    • Because of the two advantages listed above, we have been able to listen closer to our customers' opinions.

    • We have been able to survey our members throughout the lifetime of their relationship with us and gage their overall satisfaction.
