Monsido vs. Siteimprove

The data visualization by Monsido is excellent for both executive summaries and for user operation. It can be used by a first-time user with relative ease, however, training (which is offered by Monsido) and guidance by experienced users really unlock the product's potential for an organization. I would not recommend opening the tool suite in an executive meeting, as some of the metrics that are tracked are enticing for them but require contextual understanding for their relevance to the wider health of the website.

Simple, easy-to-deploy accessibility that automatically scans, remediates and provides proof of compliance once the process is complete. It is ideal for people who want to make their website much more accessible and provide their users with an intuitive adjustable interface.

• User-friendly customisable dashboards, easy to make a dashboard from a template, or create your own, and add in whichever 'widgets' are relevant for what you are looking at
• Flagging words to review, allowing users to check and confirm if the word is 'accepted' or is a misspelling

Incentivized

• Integration not available with google search analytics
• Reports can be more interactive
• Not being able to go to pages with errors in a single click

• I don't like that there are different navigation paths to go from point A to point B. When I want to navigate to a specific place, I have more than one way to get there, which means I have to make a decision about how I want to there and I'd rather the designer make that design based on what would be most efficient for me.

Tool has undergone numerous changes, both to function and UX/CX. Makes it less than user friendly at times. But on the other hand, that does indicate a willingness to improve the product in a continual manner - which they've done nearly year after year - but it's always a case of who moved my cheese with each new iteration.

I've used support often and it has been responsive, thorough and considerate of our needs. I can get a tech right away, they understand the issue, and work with us to resolve it. Often the problem is with the site we are trying to scan, sometimes it is with their product. I appreciate that they go beyond support into continually helping us implement SiteImprove in more places with 3rd party integration.

We chose Monsido in order to make our websites more comfortable and easier to navigate for all visitors; the results have been pleasing.

Siteimprove provides richer features when it comes to how granular you can define policies and metrics for search engine optimization and content relevance. It is also much easier to set up and maintain the sites that you want to administer. However, pricing wise is more costly which can be a constraint for smaller organizations.
