    UserTesting is very much a usability testing tool. dscout has much more robust functionality and feels like a more complete user research tool, and I prefer the quality of the panel. However, the UserTesting panel is much larger, and works well when you have lower barriers to …

    UserTesting is far more advanced than UserBob. It allows a lot more flexibility in the type of testing we run and specifically how we gather respondents to this.

    Good: - When one needs to recruit participants for User research fast. It’s particularly fast when someone doesn’t need niche sample - bad: - n/a (it’s difficult for me to say when I’m using it for 3 years with multiple clients and I’m a researcher. User interview does what I need)

    Well suited to its original purpose- usability testing and interviews. This can be performed at pace, given the large audience (although our brands are very well known so this should not be a barrier) and there is a decent level of task customisation when conducting unmoderated testing. Its less appropriate for survey where you are looking to capture genuine intent/behaviour, even with screeners the data skews more positively than onsite survey, makes me question the quality of survey respondents.

    • Product Manager who follows up on your UserTesting usage and gives advice/support when you need it.
    • UserTesting University is a great platform to learn how to use UT and general information about research.
    • UserTesting can find participants quickly, so you won't need to wait long before you can start the analysis.

    Cons
    User Interviews
    No answers on this topic
    UserTesting
    • Quality of participant pool - many are career testers, and many are untruthful. Since sessions are auto-scheduled if the screener is past, you often don't know until they've completed the test. Allow double screening or be more stringent in removing users from the platform.
    • Unfinished products - focus on making one product the best it can be before moving on to a new one. Unmoderated testing is still missing features (randomization of 3 or more prototypes, etc.)

    I'm very happy with my experience of the product and the level of service and learning resources they provide. If the service becomes more expensive than it currently is then we might not be able to justify additional cost - but this is theoretical. I would recommend UserTesting and would ideally renew our contract.

    It can be difficult to organize our tests and go back and find information. I think the AI tools are helping and will help with this, but for now it is time consuming to sort through all of the tests and information and then synthesize it and share it with others. It just takes a lot of time.

    From a technical perspective, the implementation was extremely smooth. Most of the change management / implementation hurdles were clearing use of the tool through our various security, legal, and information privacy teams. Once these concerns were addressed (UserTesting.com was very helpful in providing all the needed documentation), the implementation process was very simple and we were able to get going right away.

    User Testing: - UI has the great feature of double screening that you can really select your participants based on the research requirements and they are not approved automatically.
    Therefore not every question in the screener needs to be filtering.
