AskNicely vs. Formstack for Salesforce

AskNicely is well suited for surveying customers about how they are feeling about your product. This can be their overall feeling or after they have taken a certain action. E.g. used a particular feature. It's not designed for getting through customer feedback, rather gauging satisfaction. You will need to follow up with other survey methods for detailed feedback.

- Formstack for Salesforce excels in scenarios where organizations need to capture leads seamlessly. The platform's ability to create customized and branded lead generation forms, coupled with its direct integration with Salesforce, facilitates the smooth transfer of lead data into the CRM system. This is particularly beneficial for marketing teams running campaigns and events.- In scenarios where the primary goal is to collect basic contact information without the need for complex workflows or integrations, the comprehensive features of Formstack may be more than what is required. Simpler tools or solutions might be more appropriate for straightforward contact form needs.

• The workflows and level of automation to make managing an ongoing NPS programme easy are fantastic.

When we evaluated Delighted we found a product that *almost* met our needs. They provide great surveys with solid analytics at an unbeatable price point that includes all the integrations now matter what price you enter at. The thing that won us over to AskNicely was the "workflow" features. The ability to automatically reach out to customers based on the survey result is extremely powerful and saves a lot of time for multiple teams. Delighted does not offer that feature. Pendo lost out because of price, they are focused solely on enterprise customers and were literally thousands of dollars more a month than AskNicely. Now, to be fair, Pendo offers a much broader feature set than AskNicely, but as a straight NPS provider, AskNicely fit the bill perfectly.

Formstack has a lot of work to do to get up to Jotform standards. Jotform has more payment integration options which is a HUGE selling factor for us as far as which program to choose. They also offer more discounts for non-profits which we work with often. Formstack has some pros but Jotform is more elaborate

• The second positive impact was being able to see a commonality among our detractors, which in turn enabled our management team to shift strategies on prioritizing resources and projects.
• Lastly, this has filled a niche in customer satisfaction feedback that was not sustainable in the previous methods.
