Considered Both Products
DocuWare
Chose DocuWare
We actually moved from DocuWare to Plate IQ because Plate is restaurant specific and shares many item codes, SKU #'s, etc from major vendors. However, we continue to use DocuWare for other data management because it was so useful to us while we used it for AP.
Chose DocuWare
Managing documents and processes are very similar. The added value of Docuware Cloud is seen in the administrative management and the investment cost.
Survicate
Chose Survicate
I must say, the quality and level of Customer Success done by the Survicate team is outstanding. As a customer of the highest tier package of Survicate, we regularly receive hints and suggestion on what we can improve when it comes to our surveys. We even have a Slack channel, …
Chose Survicate
Survicate is great at allowing us to poll users in-app and quickly analyzing results for distribution amongst the organization. However, its surveying capabilities are limited, visual interfaces are all over the place, which risks damaging the site's overall visual appeal, and …
Chose Survicate
Considering the simplicity of the need, and the cost of such solution (~600$/yr), I don't think there was very deep research for any alternatives. The main alternative was embedding a feedback tool "organically" into our site, that option was taken off the table, for strategic …

Likelihood to Recommend
We can use Docuware Cloud as a checks and balances program for our application processing in our data department. This is a time saver and allows us to access information at our multiple locations, as well as we have clients in various states. We can assign documents to others throughout the processing of applications, and this has allowed us to keep better track of our documentation with clients.

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

Pros
  • Control of the flow of online processes
  • Automation of the company processes
  • Online forms and digitization of processing documents
Read full review
  • 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.
Read full review
Cons
  • No active directory integration, this doubles up user management.
  • No Outlook integration. Would be nice to be able to interact with Docuware from email.
  • No mobile application. We have many remote users that would benefit from this.

  • 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

Only if we will really consider other features, we might end up with an alternative tool. if will continue the business process as it is, I don't anticipate migrating to another product

Usability
Fairly intuitive for average users.
Read full review
In my experience, implementation was very drawn out and overly complicated (needed lots of engineering help from both sides), visual interface both within the tool and surveys shown in-app is unappealing and sometimes misleading, and making sure the right users are being targeted for any given survey sometimes requires more babysitting than ideal.

Support Rating
We use a third-party company to assist in the support process, and they have been great to work with. Quick turn around on issues and almost immediate communication concerning support tickets. They are more than willing to consult with our IT partners as well, which is a must for our business.
Read full review
Survicate offers quick in-product support, via chat ( not a chatbot ) that responds in minutes, not hours. For all customers. This is definitely something I don't see in some of the tools we use. Secondly, as a highest-package customer we're receiving insightful tips, and recommendations from our Customer Success Manager, who knows our use-cases really well and knows how Survicate can best address them. We even have a Slack channel, where we can get help in no-time

Setup was simple. One-time installation for our website and inside the product. We used Google Tag Manager to implement Survicate. So within 2 hours, we were able to run surveys, and also all attributes and events were passed to Survicate, so that we were able to use them to trigger surveys

Survicate is great at allowing us to poll users in-app and quickly analyzing results for distribution amongst the organization. However, its surveying capabilities are limited, visual interfaces are all over the place, which risks damaging the site's overall visual appeal, and customer service for anything beyond basic questions is very slow.

Return on Investment
  • Purchasing approval control and monitoring. Allows us to keep tighter hold of the budget.
  • Had to spend considerably more than expected. We needed to hire a developer to build integrations.
Read full review
  • Being able to automatically identify topics from open-text responses significantly reduced amount of manual work on our end. Hours saved on weekly basis.
  • One-time quick installation reduced the potential amount of development time required to either build surveys, or update them on our own.
  • We find these surveys to be a good alternative to lengthy questionnaires, or deep interviews. They're super quick to launch, and generate insights almost instantly. Money and time may be saved on user interviews, and incentives to take questionnaires.
