Considered Both Products
AskNicely
Chose AskNicely
We previously used a consulting company to survey a batch of customers which meant we had an influx of feedback to deal with and work through at one point in time rather than an on-going, steady stream of feedback.
Chose AskNicely
We tested a few tools before choosing AskNicely but it won because of:
  • pricing
  • customer support
Chose AskNicely
AskNicely does a great job of making NPS survey sending easy. You don't have to set up Salesforce email templates or workflows to schedule to sending. This has been really useful in terms of getting up and running quickly.
Chose AskNicely
I like AskNicely much better than Delighted because you can directly “close the loop” with customers. Delighted doesn’t allow you to do that. That’s a big problem.
Chose AskNicely
AskNicely has a Salesforce integration and goes a bit deeper than the others. However, if you're on a budget this gets pricier.

What you'll want to do is list out your Must Haves, Should Haves, and Could Haves to help you effectively decide what software you need. For us, it …
Chose AskNicely
My company signed on with AskNicely before I came on board, so I honestly can't speak to that
Chose AskNicely
On the back end & integrations, we found AskNicely was much further along than its competitors. We also found the UX on AskNicely was much better than promoter.io.
Chose AskNicely
3 of the 5 could not integrate with tools we use: Hubspot , Shopify, Slack. AskNicely and CustomerGauge integrates with these. AskNicely won against CustomerGauge because it can trigger feedback requests after specific events/timeframes, and trigger campaigns that target …
Chose AskNicely
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 …
Chose AskNicely
We are still evaluating SurveyMonkey against AskNicely, but initial results would seem to favor the latter. For ease-of-use, flexibility, and easily accessible analytics, AskNicely wins on all counts. Both have robust outreach engines, and there are limitations and pros/cons …
TINYpulse
Chose TINYpulse
TINYpulse provided the most-competitive pricing of all vendors considered, with the greatest flexibility of use with desktop, mobile app, and operating system. While customer support proposed by others appeared to be closer to "live" or real-time, with closer to the 24/7 kind …

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend
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.

Well-suited for companies looking to get better feedback from employees. It's probably perfect for my organization (around 80 employees) because our COO can respond directly to our concerns. It might be less effective for larger organizations, but I can't speak much to that.

Pros
  • The workflows and level of automation to make managing an ongoing NPS programme easy are fantastic.
  • The AskNicely TV Dashboard is great for getting everyone in the office interested in customer feedback - it essentially brings the customer into the room for some people who don't have a lot of direct contact with customers.
  • The system is very easy to use and intuitive.
Read full review
  • Helps increase team camaraderie and rapport by celebrating wins and showing appreciation.
  • Helps monitor any team issues by asking (anonymous) questions about company and team dynamics.
  • Team members are able to safely provide feedback and make suggestions without concerns of awkwardness or friction.

Cons
  • Integrations could always be another but they do a nice job getting Asknicely and CRM’s talking nicely to one another
  • I’d like to see more resources on how to take small businesses to the next level of CX execution using NPS and AskNicely
  • More, not fewer plan options
Read full review
  • Originally, requests for feedback ("360s") were not customizable, and employees didn't feel the pre-written questions were particularly helpful. TINYpulse has since changed this format so we can either use default questions or create our own.

Alternatives Considered
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.

TINYpulse provided the most-competitive pricing of all vendors considered, with the greatest flexibility of use with desktop, mobile app, and operating system. While customer support proposed by others appeared to be closer to "live" or real-time, with closer to the 24/7 kind of environment in which we live/work in today, budget was a driving factor for us.

Return on Investment
  • The first positive impact has been stressing the nearly urgent need for a NPS tracking system. Gathering the first few responses (both positive and negative) was eye-opening.
  • 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.
Read full review
  • We have been able to implement a number of suggestions that our employees have posted on TINYpulse, things that our management may not have thought of but made a positive difference.
  • We are able to identify pain points before they become a systemic problem, and can act to correct our shortcomings or adjust procedures to remedy the situation.
  • Sending Cheers to employees is a real morale booster for everyone.
