Pros

“The main challenge is the learning curve, particularly when using advanced survey logic, workflows, reporting, or more sophisticated performance management features. Although the basic interface has good ease of use, some advanced functions can take time to understand.”

Shauna J.

Senior Employee Engagement Specialist

“The use interface is not very user friendly and some of the changes that have happened over the past couple of years came without warning, leaving me to try to figure out the user interface and how to use the tool all over again with no support.”

“Additionally, I do not like how the responses for qualitative data are reviewed post-survey.”
