Satmetrix (discontinued) vs. Sogolytics

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.

We use Sogosurvey to obtain feedback from course candidates after they have attended a course. This is invaluable to us as the candidates can complete the feedback in their own time after the course is completed rather than them having to do it while attending the course. We also use SoGoSurvey to get feedback from our volunteer instructors who work for other organizations and at different hours so the ability for them to complete the surveys in their own time is invaluable.

• 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.

• SoGoSurvey makes it easy to create a survey even for the novice. I recently gave a spare license to a peer and they were able to easily develop a survey. I offered my help if she had any questions but she said that she'd definitely ask but "... I already love that I can change the answer format with the drop down. It's the best. "
• Customer support. I 'chat' with support personnel when I need to use a feature I haven't used. They are always quick to respond and answer my questions thoroughly. I can get the complete chat via email for future reference as well.
• Keeping clients up-to-date. SoGoSurvey regularly hosts free training and best practices webinars that keeps the basics at the forefront and shares best practices.
• The canvas (survey metrics) is easy to create and very versatile in summarizing the survey results.

• 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.

• Providing users the ability to follow along a specific question example (eg. placeholder text in questions that users can see what the answer might look like)
• Better media management and implementation (eg. placing images/videos/gifs/etc. as standalone assets in the survey)
• Making the images added into a survey responsive to the screen they are being viewed on (eg. any images added to a survey do not adjust to the size of the screen, consequently showing up very small on mobile/tablet view)
• Exporting the survey to Word looks horrible - we'd love if the survey could be exported the way it looks when live into a similar-looking Word document or template

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.

Very easy to use. My only challenge was the features offered in their Plus package didn't offer everything I would have liked (e.g. branching). The other area for improvement would be to allow an easier transition between Tracking and Reports.

I had an issue whereby I used a free trial that ended, locking me out of my account. I contacted their customer service to help with this issue, which they resolved in under half an hour. I was extremely impressed with their speed and quality of service, which led me to filling out this review!

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

In summary, Sogolytics has proven to be the perfect fit for our pre and post-test assessments. Its seamless integration, efficient data collection, and powerful reporting capabilities have significantly improved our ability to track and communicate the impact of our programs. We highly recommend Sogolytics to organizations looking for a reliable and user-friendly data management solution.

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

• We are more efficient. Instead of manual work, we can use this survey tool to do the heavy lifting, allowing for staff to focus on other tasks.
• The "send later" feature ensure surveys are sent out without needing a manual reminder.
• Offering pulse surveys has given us a great way to get a temperature check from employees.
