Comparing tools in this category
An honest set of questions to ask of any team-engagement tool, including this one.
Why this page has no scorecard
Most comparison pages are written by one of the products being compared, which makes the result predictable. We would rather give you the questions than the answers, because the answers change with every release — including ours — and a table we control is a table we grade ourselves on.
The questions worth asking
Ask these of every tool on your shortlist. The ones that matter most are the ones vendors answer least directly.
- Does it need everyone online at once? If yes, it excludes whoever is asleep — permanently, and always the same people.
- How long does it take a participant per day, honestly measured?
- Can someone skip it without explaining themselves?
- What does it do with answer content — is it stored, and does analytics see it?
- Is pricing per seat? Per-seat pricing makes somebody decide who is worth including.
- What happens to your data when you leave?
How we answer them
Async by default, about two minutes a day, skippable with no notification to anyone, answers never sent to analytics, free with no seat count, and account deletion removes what it held. Where we are weaker: we are early, the library is small, and there are integrations we do not have yet. Those are real and we would rather you heard them here.
