PlaybookUX vs. Usabilla (discontinued)

When you are trying to get feedback from users it's great to be able to use PlaybookUX because you don't have to do any of the manual work of conducting research. They take care of all of that for you. Great for companies who are short on time and don't want to do the administrative stuff.

If we could select 0/10 we would... We would not recommend anyone using this product as it excludes a very important user group, disabled users. If you use this product you will be failing ADA and WCAG 2.1 (EU Directive for public sector websites and mobile apps). In my opinion, you will be vulnerable to lawsuits.

• Before actual release, it helps in getting trail user's feedback.
• The dashboard to see how user interact with designs is really helpful.
• Automatic usability testing feature is great (But needs little improvisation here).

• Reporting - well designed, clear to all users regardless of level of knowledge.
• Two options for feedback - passive and active (pop-ups).
• Clean UI & easy to use platform.

• Roll up summary of all transcriptions

• It doesn't gather users from all user groups, it's exclusive to non-disabled users - users with disabilities using assistive technology are not able to access or use the platform
• There are extensive colour contrast issues with the platform, making it difficult to use by users with low vision
• Usabilla is not accessible to keyboard users (as well as users on other assistive technology) - when the modal is expanded, the background is still focusable
• The touch target sizes of the links and buttons are not accessible - it's very difficult to close out of the modal when on mobile, or if a user had a mobility disability and was using a mouse

Setting up a study only takes 5 mins. and you can preview a study before sending it out so you don't make any mistakes.

The interface to configure the questionary is quite easy to use. It helps to give autonomy to marketing teams. Once the initial setup is made (integrating a basic javascript code on your website), you can easily deploy any questionary on any page of your website. Usabilla is a very flexible tool overall.

Very responsive when I had a technical question about a test.

I haven't contacted support yet to solve a particular issue. I do have an account manager at Usabilla that I talk to in order to introduce the software to my team but this is just to run over the basic functionality in a live demo setting. The ability to talk to a real person over video call is a benefit though.

We are previous UserTesting.com customers but found their subscription model to be inflexible for our needs. PlaybookUX not only fit our budget, but the flexibility has let us scale up and scale down testing as needed.

I have Hotjar, Sprig, and Usabilla in my workplace. Usabilla unfortunately has the most limited feature set of the 3 options. The difficulty of administering a Usabilla survey on mobile is a big blocker for my projects. Sprig and Hotjar both allow mobile and allow video recordings (either of a user's screen or a user's webcam for impromptu interviews).

• Test questions are easy to understand.
• Test types are easy to follow.
• Software needed is easy to download and use.

• The positive impact of Usabilla has been being able to measure and respond quickly to our customers' feedback so that we can resolve issues quicker or make enhancements faster.
• We have also been able to manage and track our NPS scores and correlate these scores to our overall business performance to make sure that our customers' views of our products and processes and in line with our internal understanding and success of the business.
• Additionally, the Usabilla team has been willing to provide us with training and ideas on how to use the tool better which has helped our team think more strategically and be more connected to the experiences our customers are having on our web properties.
