"Alchemer is very user friendly and the built in logic is very helpful!"
5/5
What do you like best about Alchemer Survey?

The built-in logic is excellent, we build out all of our surveys using Alchemer. The logic helps with all the different scenarios we have for dealerships from product selection to management systems. Instead of building out a form for each scenario, we can have one form with all the options to display specifics based on user selection. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

The multi-user tier is a bit pricey, so we settle for one user. We communicate between the team when using the account so another person does not kick off the current user. The search function could be a bit better, you have to remove your search word. Otherwise, the results don't clear even though you go back to all surveys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

I find some things in Alchemer Survey to have bugs, particularly with the piping feature involving write-in responses. As I am new to the platform, these issues can be particularly challenging to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's pretty easy to use and intuitive, and offers a wide range of methodologies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

The support team is not always as easy to contact as I would like, and it doesnt feel very modern. It would also be great if they offered something like implicit testing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very intuitive and flexible for creating surveys of different levels"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Alchemer Survey?

It is very intuitive, and its FAQ center clears up most of the doubts. Something I value is that you can create surveys of different levels and they provide almost instant support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

That does not include an option to weight within the same platform and does not allow connecting PowerBi to a previously created survey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Save yourself the pain of dealing with poor customer service and shady business practices"
0.5/5
What do you like best about Alchemer Survey?

Alchemer as a survey platform is a lot cheaper than other options like qualtrics or Decipher Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

Save yourself the pain of dealing with poor customer service and a poorly managed survey platform. I have worked with Alchemer now at three different organizations (across the past 8 years), and across all three companies we have discontinued our use of the Alchemer survey platform and all Alchemer services.

If you're looking for any type of advanced question types, their programming team has to get involved (unless you're excellent in writing your own code) and it always takes an extended period of time to get their help (i.e., their own team was the bottleneck to me actually getting my surveys out in real time). The platform also has a lot of bugs that they have not addressed over the last 8 years - customer service does not seem to care.

Speaking of customer service, I have genuinely never worked with a less responsive, more combative, less customer friendly customer service department in my life. Any questions I had, took weeks to get an answer, even with me following up multiple times. Their responses were always very cold, and it was clear that customers asking questions was unwanted.

The other aspect of Alchemer I will warn against is their Alchemer Digital platform (Appenintive). My organization previously used this platform 5+ years ago, and we had discontinued usage of the platform about 3-4 years ago. Unfortunately, Alchemer kept billing us, without confirmation or even a contact email that wasn't bouncing back. This means they were charging us over $20k a year for the past 3-4 years to provide 0 services, and knowing full well they did not have approval from anyone in the org (because all of the notification of billing were being sent to emails that all had bounce-backs - and our company email is on our website, so if they were ethical, they could have reached out). Dealing with customer service and leadership through this entire process has been the worst customer service experience in a professional setting I have ever had. They were disrespectful, not understanding, and push shady business practices of billing accounts, even when they don't have an active relationship or account person for them.

Overall I would really steer clear of all Aclhemer products and would consider SurveyMonkey or Centiment or Suzy or literally any other platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good enough, but clunky"
3/5
What do you like best about Alchemer Survey?

Alchemer has a robust offline survey mode that is more usable than other survey platforms out there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Alchemer Survey?

Many of the options in Alchemer can be more streamlined, with better UX. Sometimes options and functions are hidden away in settings or other places. It might be just that I am more used to other platforms, but often I find myself thinking 'this could be a button somewhere else'. Also, one thing is I cannot rename question numbers easily.

"Powerful, Flexible Surveys at a Mid-Tier Enterprise Price"

The customer experience and employee experience functionalities are limited, and their community/online focus group module is not that strong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
