What do you like best about the product?

I like how it's easy to set up an unmoderated panel. I find that it's super helpful to get feedback on a study fairly quickly.

What do you dislike about the product?

Copying a previous study. I wish the flow was more intuitive. I also think that the way groups are created for your organization is complicated. For example, I need permissions to be added to a specific group before I can read through my coworkers study.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

My team is mostly trying to understand how users will perceive the concepts of what we're building. It's great and eye opening to learn how users either resolve or dispute our hypothesis.

What do you like best about the product?

UserTesting made it fast and easy to collect specific feedback from our target audience. I appreciate the ability to really drill down into audience characteristics to ensure the users providing feedback were our target. I was blown away by the speed and quality of the feedback provided. The testers seemed very invested in providing honest, detailed feedback and not like they were just checking a box to earn a reward.

What do you dislike about the product?

It was a bit cumbersome to get through all the user reviews collected ... though that was because there was such a good amount of feedback provided, so perhaps no even that much of a negative!

Recommendations to others considering the product:

UserTesting should definitely be part of your product and marketing toolbox - use it early and often! We had good success using a variety of more broad and general questions in addition to asking for very specific feedback.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used UserTesting in several scenarios. First, we used it to test and validate our product messaging. The feedback we received in this area was invaluable - testers helped us identify areas in our message that were unclear and we made several significant changes to our website as a result of the feedback. We've also used the product to help optimize the flow of our site and ensure there were no significant roadblocks preventing users from completing a transaction. Again, this feedback immediately helped us identify several opportunities for improvement.

What do you like best about the product?

Fast access to users that can test your website

What do you dislike about the product?

I don't think I see any downside to this platform, everything worked as expected

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

A customer-centric approach for our users

What do you like best about the product?

I've been able to use it as a user and as a researcher, and I found it easy to use and helpful in the research process.

What do you dislike about the product?

I do not think I have used it enough to really find things I dislike so far.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have been able to use UserTesting for several types of user tests. It is flexible enough to test in several ways and get feedback on different aspects on the site we were working on. It's been helpful both when we've selected our own testers and when they recruit for us.

What do you like best about the product?

What I like the best is that User Testing has a good user-friendly dashboard; the solution we are using right now, which is certainly your competitor, has more features, but in my opinion, that brings a lot of unneeded complexity and in certain times feels hard to use.

What do you dislike about the product?

My company is not using UserTesting for a while, because they moved for another solution, but if I remember well, your video player is very buggy. I don't know if this issue was just with me, but a few times, I really couldn't navigate through the video (skip through different sections and bullet points on the video), but that might be just an abnormal situation. Another thing I noticed was the quality of the testers; a few times, I ran into people who only responded positive things about my design, without questioning anything, to go through the test and complete quickly. Feels like this person only wanted the money and didn't care about tests.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Really what I recommend and like about User Testing is the easiness of the use and how fast they get qualified testers.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am a UX designer qualified by my company to conduct small studies, so when I used User Testing, it was to test a few nuts and bolts of the experience and see if those resonate with my population so that I can have at least some validation that I am solving the right problem the right way. I realized that other than few users who seem to be on the platform to grab some easy money, there are really serious people who gave me exciting feedback, and I was able to change my designs based on their inputs.

What do you like best about the product?

the easy interface and the great customer service

What do you dislike about the product?

As a tester, you will get a lot of the same tests even when you have declined it

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Organisations should have clear what their goal is and what do they want to find out with these tests

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It's a great way to let your websites being experienced by a fresh eye

What do you like best about the product?

The speed at which you can gain valuable user insights - you can prepare a script, launch a test, and have insights all within a few hours. I also like the ability to target tests to specific personas - based on their demographics and the screeners, it's really easy to get exactly the type of people you want for your test.

What do you dislike about the product?

Some of the testers are "experienced" and sometimes are eager to please, so give feedback that might not always be quite right - this is just the nature of user testing however, not entirely to do with the platform. I would also like to be able to release surveys within the usertesting platform that aren't video recorded - the screeners and demographic questions are a great feature of the platform that I'd like to be able to tie to surveys with large numbers of people, but only view a small percentage of video recordings.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

This platform is very useful for those that want to rapidly iterate on a product with informed user research. If you work in a fast paced environment the platform is particularly good for getting results fast. If you are conducting more in depth research then the platform can also be useful.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We answer usability questions within a mobile app, and try and understand if a feature will be valuable to a user, through both unmoderated and live interview tests. Unmoderated tests are particularly useful for testing hypotheses within the live app, while live interviews are more useful for understanding users and their needs. We also conduct initial user research before starting to design a feature, and conduct brand studies where we measure users' perspectives on the brand. This can involve first impressions on brand images, as well as word association tasks.

What do you like best about the product?

Usertesting is an excellent tool to gain qualitative feedback on multiple experiments - from marketing messages to product design to concept comprehension. The ability to launch a test and get feedback within minutes or hours is incredible and allows us to move quickly on initiatives with higher confidence.

What do you dislike about the product?

One challenge I have experienced with Usertesting is being able to understand what kind of account permissions I have. I've had my seat changed several times and have never received and email announcing the changes and what they mean to me. Also, sometimes the users are able to sneak their way past the screener and it is unfortunate we cannot mark those responses as invalid or be able to suppress those users from future similar tests.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you want a more robust quantitative service, I would do more research on UserTesting. For any qualitative research, I would strongly recommend this platform.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have used this platform to optimize designs, improve marketing copy, and run "mini" surveys on my target audience. I love being able to reach prospects through UserTesting.
