Satmetrix was survey-based customer experience management software. It contained summary and individual customer data for tracking the customer lifecycle. Satmetrix was acquired by NICE Systems in July 2017, and is no longer available.
GetFeedback was implemented before Satmetrix. It was a cheap and cheerful product, even at the top tier of its license cost, tying it into Salesforce was incredibly easy. Just getting from survey to results in Salesforce was a pleasure. I really miss this world!
Medallia - Satmetrix does not compare. Where Satmetrix succeeded in elevating our multiple regional disjointed VOC into a single globally consistent program, Medallia further elevated it by facilitating a cultural change. Medallia's expertise and its platform's simplicity …
I haven't evaluated any other products. Our executive team selected NPS as the preferred measurement of customer sentiment and Satmetrix is the only certification company I am aware of.
Satmetrix is best suited if you don't currently use Salesforce. A lot of its main selling points are negated by the virtue of having Salesforce. Case management is in Salesforce, reporting is in Salesforce, the structure that NPX imposes is actually clunky and unwieldy, and is much more streamlined on competing platforms such as GetFeedback and SurveyMonkey. The only thing that leaves is the consultative service on being best practice and I don't really get to see any of that.
Java compatibility, needs to work with newer versions. Prompts to use an older Java version in a browser can be annoying while creating reports and have to close them, then reopen with the right version.
Costs would play a big role in a potential renewal. Additionally, with the experience gained from the original project and education, I would feel comfortable running a program with a less costly vendor.
