PG Forsta HX Platform vs. Satmetrix (discontinued)

There are several new enhancements and features being added to the product on a regular basis, whether its new reporting tools, survey question types or something else, the products are always improving. They are also proactive when it comes to communicating issues, platform changes, downtimes (rare) which I have not seen from other vendors too often. Aside from the product which just works, the support team has to be one of their best assets in my opinion. Their support team know the product inside and out and can provide some creative solutions to achieve your goals. They are always available and offer 24x7 services for free which in many other companies is only available as an add-on cost for premium support.

Satmetrix is best suited if you don't currently use Salesforce. A lot of its main selling points are negated by the virtue of having Salesforce. Case management is in Salesforce, reporting is in Salesforce, the structure that NPX imposes is actually clunky and unwieldy, and is much more streamlined on competing platforms such as GetFeedback and SurveyMonkey. The only thing that leaves is the consultative service on being best practice and I don't really get to see any of that.

• This is one of the few survey programs that let's you do almost anything you can imagine - complex logic, showcasing concept designs/videos, cluster analysis are a few of the uses we got out of this program.
• Comprehensive data analysis and reporting options allowed us to fill just about any client request.
• Good tech support - never had an issue there.

• The user community Satmetrix has developed is great. More so, they seem to have identified this as an area for on-going investment.
• The course materials provided by Satmetrix for certification were thorough.

• The ability to repeat the same data export with the options you selected the first time would be good. There are a lot of options available for data exports and it can be challenging to remember exactly which options you picked should you want to put out the same options as a previous export.
• Continue to improve functionality and speed. You are already the leader in my book. Don't fall behind. :)
• Create more "Ready to use" questions like the Carousel for grid questions.

• Java compatibility, needs to work with newer versions. Prompts to use an older Java version in a browser can be annoying while creating reports and have to close them, then reopen with the right version.

From my point of view Confirmit has been a key tool in our organization. Without it we can't deliver what we do at this moment. Confirmit has proved that is a reliable, stable and easy to use tool. The few issues we found (as far as I know) were sent to Confirmit support team and fix them. Patching the product has been done faster and without large downtime of the product

Costs would play a big role in a potential renewal. Additionally, with the experience gained from the original project and education, I would feel comfortable running a program with a less costly vendor.

Confirmit is a very technical tool, it takes time for someone to get used to the interface, even when it could definitely be more intuitive or user friendly, this is part of Confirmit's strenghts that makes it one of the most robust data collection technologies out there.

The support team is responsive and I can tell that they are actually trying to help get to the heart of the issues before making us try every possible solution available. They ask the right questions and test things before coming back to us with proposals. I like the support team at Confirmit.

Should let the professionals handle implementation, don't have only the operations team at your company do it.

While I was not responsible for the decision to utilize Confirmit I am certainly glad to be using it instead of Dimensions. The interface, coding language, and flexibility of Confirmit are all superior to Dimensions in my opinion. I only programmed average complexity surveys in Dimensions so it is possible that there is some feature or flexibility that I did not get to experience but from my use, Confirmit definitely comes out on top.

Our previous survey tools were SurveyMonkey and in-house applications. Satmetrix is significantly more powerful than anything we have used previously.

• Confirmit has shown a great employee efficiency, the users can work by themselves on it faster than expected.
• It provides a lot of services for the different areas of the company, so we don't have to spend additional money of many different platforms.

• Satmetrix is teaching us what our clients like and don't like about our software.
• Satmetrix allows users to close the loop with customers.
