AskNicely vs. Cvent Surveys

AskNicely is well suited for surveying customers about how they are feeling about your product. This can be their overall feeling or after they have taken a certain action. E.g. used a particular feature. It's not designed for getting through customer feedback, rather gauging satisfaction. You will need to follow up with other survey methods for detailed feedback.

Our company needs surveys to give feedback to our speakers. Cvent Surveys allows attendees to give honest and accurate feedback on the spot after a session ends. It is easier to collect the data, send it to our marketing team, and have them send the feedback to each speaker so they know their strengths but also what needs to be worked on.

• The workflows and level of automation to make managing an ongoing NPS programme easy are fantastic.
• The AskNicely TV Dashboard is great for getting everyone in the office interested in customer feedback - it essentially brings the customer into the room for some people who don't have a lot of direct contact with customers.
• The system is very easy to use and intuitive.

• It allows for clients to ask questions they need answered.
• It records everything for you and gathers information for both the client and the sales representative to read.
• It is a middleman for the client and Sales rep. It is a wonderful tool and easy to navigate around. People find it easy and simple to use.

• Integrations could always be another but they do a nice job getting Asknicely and CRM’s talking nicely to one another
• I’d like to see more resources on how to take small businesses to the next level of CX execution using NPS and AskNicely
• More, not fewer plan options

• I have had some occasional errors that have come up in the system that don't seem to have an obvious cause. These can be frustrating to overcome, but Cvent support has always been able to resolve these issues.
• Cvent might be a little to rigid at times on the back-end. It could just be my lack of coding experience, but sometimes the html emails and survey templates can be difficult to make as aesthetically pleasing as I would like.
• The opening screen for 'Known Surveys' often bothers me because you cannot add additional fields to the "first page" of the survey. This is only if you are not sending the email through Cvent, so it is not a major flaw.

1. Ease of itegration to other technologies for automation
2. Intuitive use of the technology
3. Performance (not encountering any network or downtime)
4. Upgrades and updates made frequently enhancing the tool itself
5. Exceptional support team that are quick to respond to any issues or questions
6. Security within Cvent allowing for user groups to be created segregating organizations providing for both protection and security of their data and content
7. Cvent notification process of company changes or improvements
8. Valuable metrics from both the administrative side as well as the survey side of the tool

This program is so versatile to be able to do whatever is needed. There isn't a time that I have built a survey that hasn't done exactly what is needed. No matter how complicated the questions are, the data that is put out is easy for leadership to read and understand. That is what is needed. They shouldn't have to go through complex data and spend a lot of time trying to analyze it.

I have not needed to contact support before for this feature in Cvent. The support team for other features have been great though, so I will provide an answer for that. Cvent is on point with their customer care. They’re prompt and make sure the issue is fixed. They will also follow up with you to make sure everything is still working smoothly or if any additional help is needed

When we evaluated Delighted we found a product that *almost* met our needs. They provide great surveys with solid analytics at an unbeatable price point that includes all the integrations now matter what price you enter at. The thing that won us over to AskNicely was the "workflow" features. The ability to automatically reach out to customers based on the survey result is extremely powerful and saves a lot of time for multiple teams. Delighted does not offer that feature. Pendo lost out because of price, they are focused solely on enterprise customers and were literally thousands of dollars more a month than AskNicely. Now, to be fair, Pendo offers a much broader feature set than AskNicely, but as a straight NPS provider, AskNicely fit the bill perfectly.

Cvent survey does exactly what we need it to. There is no reason to look at other products. That effort can be used elsewhere. Information that is kept within the same program makes it easier to compare data across the board and certain functions will not have to be repeated from the foundation since most of the information will flow into other programs within Cvent and we won't have to type all the information over again. It saves time, which is not what a lot of people have.

• The first positive impact has been stressing the nearly urgent need for a NPS tracking system. Gathering the first few responses (both positive and negative) was eye-opening.
• The second positive impact was being able to see a commonality among our detractors, which in turn enabled our management team to shift strategies on prioritizing resources and projects.
• Lastly, this has filled a niche in customer satisfaction feedback that was not sustainable in the previous methods.

• Saved a lot of money, once we brought everything to Cvent, we were able to close out other programs and software subscriptions.
• Seemed a little expensive at first, but once we integrated everything it made much more sense.
• I've gotten good at navigating around Cvent, which has made operations and getting campaigns out much easier.
