Score 8.0 out of 10
N/A
Alta is Knewton’s product for higher education. Alta is a courseware solution that combines Knewton’s adaptive learning technology with content, and is designed to deliver a personalized learning experience that is affordable, accessible and improves student outcomes. Knewton is a Wiley brand (acquired 2019).
We are currently looking into JotForm. Their prices are much more reasonable. They offer 10,000 submissions a month for $29. Why can't you guys offer something like that? I would fall in love with Survey Anyplace if the price was $29/month. I would tell everyone to purchase it. …
Survey Anyplace allows respondents to save progress, offered a respectable UI (User Interface), and offered surveys with a modern design. It seems most survey tools are designed for short/quick responses. The really modern, intuitive and design aesthetic options aren't designed …
Outgrow's pricing was simply not competitive -- to my memory, it was about 6x per month what SurveyAnyplace charges for their Enterprise plan, which felt extravagant considering our scope. Their sales team was also rather difficult to work with.
Compared to competitors, the Knewton system is much more adaptive and designed for mastery and learning rather than assessment. If those are your goals, then this is a good system to use. The complexity of the problems is generally lacking, so you will need to supplement with …
I have not used any other courseware but when making a decision I did look into a few others and meet with reps. By far [alta from Knewton] seemed like the best option for me because it was focused on students meeting standards rather than just getting a grade. I also love that …
Cheaper than Pearson, and better customer support. The adaptive assignments are harder to fake your way through—guessing and modeling answers after the correct answers are shown doesn’t work since the questions change when a student misses a question. MyOpenMath is free, but …
alta from Knewton is more of a homework platform with remediation. Topics for assignments are randomized. ALEKS is more of a teaching platform working on a single topic at a time.
I found the platform to be very suitable for assessment/survey products. Nevertheless, the offer is limited to some markets and may not work well for countries that have different languages, especially Asian countries. I have yet to test this out myself, but fingers crossed. I hope it works. It would be nice if the company could advise exactly which country the platform is working in.
I think any computational based math class will greatly benefit from [alta from Knewton, a Wiley brand]. It simplifies the professor's work in terms of grading while also increasing the student's ability to get real time help on homework problems if they are struggling. I like that the questions are at a deep level and not all multiple choice. If a student gets a problem wrong they get a growth mindset message of encouragement.
Intuitive branching logic mechanics. Survey Anyplace offers a nicely pipeline/process map format to visually see the branching logic for more robust question sets.
Reliable results. Survey Anyplace offers important tracking data to evaluate and hold respondents accountable to completing the surveys.
Users can save progress and come back. This allows busy respondents time to think about deeper questions, specifically when the surveys are being used in an interviewing approach.
Creating something highly customized at the ReportR level means you will need to have some savvy with CSS if you want to do it yourself. But it also means you can create something truly incredible and they do not have the same limitations as other similar software.
We found it user friendly and fairly easy to set-up with our current personnel and without having to engage external consultants or to do any specific software development. It helped us implement a new marketing approach in very agile and quick way, which is much appreciated these days since you always have to act rapidly on the market not to loose any opportunities!
I wish there was a better live chat feature. Seems like I have to wait 30-60 every time I need to talk to someone. Though once I am able to speak with someone via the chat in my account, they have been very helpful in answering my questions or pointing me in the right direction.

I would fall in love with Survey Anyplace if the price was $29/month. I would tell everyone to purchase it. You would definitely get more clients if you lowered your prices.
Compared to competitors, the Knewton system is much more adaptive and designed for mastery and learning rather than assessment. If those are your goals, then this is a good system to use. The complexity of the problems is generally lacking, so you will need to supplement with more difficult problems for your students to tackle, whereas many other systems have these more difficult problems built-in.
