Pros
Easy to set-up
Seemless integration with MailChimp
Nice reporting
Cons
Working well for what we need
Likelihood to Recommend
Sruveys with more complex flows/logis - especially when you want to link results back to specific users to be able to do more-in-depth analysis of results
Survicate provides the NPS survey within our landing page builder app. The process of creating the survey is super easy and intuitive; it allows us to create different scenarios and paths depending on different survey answers. It's also extremely helpful that Survicate integrates with systems we are using within the organization such as Hubspot and it works well. Lastly my words of appreciation to the support team, always positive, brilliant, and responding really fast to any queries.
Pros
Intuitive survey builder
Many integrations
Fast and effective support
Easy embed options
Cons
Not all embed options goes in line with survey features (like excluding certain emails while using _sva.showSurvey('tosurveyId') embed option.
Likelihood to Recommend
If you wish to create a survey and embed it in your app or email communication - Survicate is for you.
We are using Survicate for in-app surveys targeting specific segments of customers to gather product feedback and measure NPS on a quarterly basis. We are also using link surveys and email-embedded surveys that help us to understand churn reasons, understand user acquisition channels better, as well as to improve our product features. We are using website surveys also on specific marketing websites and blog, where we are targeting engaged visitors and are able to help them navigate better through the pages.
Pros
Integrations
User targeting
Great UI & UX
Dedicated onboarding, and support
Automated analysis of open text responses
Survey distribution methods: web, mobile, email & link
Cons
More complex questions types

Here's what worked especially well for us:
- Collecting in-product feedback with targeted surveys. It allowed us to better understand perception of features we were launching with the product team. One-time, quick installation (for all surveys), was especially useful for us, as we didn't have to involve the Development Team in launching our surveys.
- Running targeted website surveys to better understand audience, improve messaging, and content. We used Survicate on our feature pages, blog posts, etc. It allowed us to better understand what visitors are looking for on our pages, adjust the way we do messaging.
For both use-cases the recently introduced feature that automatically groups open-text responses into relevant topics was a game changer for us. It reduced significantly the amount of manual work to analyze collected data.
We use Survicate to collect in-app NPS and cSAT scores from end users throughout their journeys.
Pros
Limiting survey visibility via feature flags
In-app/intercept surveying
Real-time NPS and cSAT scoring
Cons
In my opinion, inconsistent and visually unappealing survey visuals (e.g., NPS and cSAT questions look completely different from each other, creating a disjointed visual experience)
Poor customer service (in my experience, issue resolution can take weeks)
Lack of clarity around API & other technical capabilities requiring engineering assistance
Very limited maximum response limit per month
Likelihood to Recommend
Survicate is well suited for very basic intercept polls and is less suited for more complex surveying tasks (e.g., anything more than basic skip-logic or surveying niche cohorts) and longitudinal surveying (e.g., comparing responses from the same or similar cohorts year over year).
We use this widget on our knowledge base site, where documentation and support articles reside. The widget is the main channel for customers to submit feedback, comments and questions regarding the content of our knowledge base. The comments are then assigned for review and any action that might be needed, to different teams in the company, depending on the page (subject) where the feedback was submitted.
Pros
IMO, the strengths of feedback lite is what it is called for - 'lite"... it is basic, simple, and easy to set up and use.
Especially should be mention that it is easy to set up, and you can have it working in less than a few hours.
Reliable - I don't remember even one "problem" or an issue we experienced with it.
Cons
So the other side of the simplicity, is the lack of options... options of feedback forms, design, and reporting. It should be said that all the mentioned (feedback forms, customization of the design etc.) ARE available, but you maybe feeling their limitation, at some point.
Especially what we are missing, is better integration with CRM or at least, common ticketing systems. Feedback Lite IS NOT a ticketing system nor task management system , so integration with such (Salesforce, in our case) would be great. At the moment we are using the CSV export, and manually loading the file to SF.
We had a case of feedback mistakenly deleted - before copied to other system - and by that, they got lost. we asked support for help, and their final answer was that it is impossible to restore the deleted answers. so we were idiots, but it turned that the tool isn't idiot friendly, at that point.
Likelihood to Recommend
Scenarios where Feedback Lite is well suited:
when one needs to set up a tool rapidly, without going into too much customization, configuration and such.
if you don't need to much processing and analyzing of the data, but only a basic level.
Scenarios where it is less appropriate:
where feedback collected requires individual followup (e.g. you collect free text feedback, which are actually questions, complaints and such).
