"Great and efficient at coding large number of text responses."
4/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

Once the code frames are finalised, it is quite good at recognising the open ended responses to bucket them in correct categories. It is quite helpful when there are large number of responses to be coded and saves significant time compared to manual coding. Editing the codes are also easy as they can be shifted from one category to another using drag and drop and can also be merged quite fast. The AI engine is quite capable in recognising the sentiments of the responses and that alone saves us precious time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

It struggles in generating initial codes and requires quite a bit of input to refine those codes. The initial codes it generate are quite generic and not very helpful. It can instead focus on the themes and generate relevant codes for responses. As I mentioned previously, once the codes are finalised by the user, it does a pretty good job in categorising the responses correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Barbara Houdayer of Caplena

Thanks for sharing your experience!

It's awesome to hear you saw time savings go up to 70% compared to manual analysis.

More importantly, we'd like to follow up on your feedback regarding initial codes.

- Have you already tried prompt-based topic generation to adjust the topics to your liking?

- Have functions like "similar" and "rare" topics been helpful?

We would love to know about the projects where you felt generating initial codes was a struggle, so we can identify which improvements can be made.

It would be fantastic if you could reach out to AndrΓ© and Aliona at support[at]caplena.com.

Thanks again for your feedback and greetings from Zurich πŸ‡¨πŸ‡­

"Really nice platform to analyze customers reviews"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

The platform is easy to use. Creating and updating projects has been improved since the first time we used it.

We can share our work to our client with dashboards without creating accounts, just by sharing a link.

When we need some help, we can contact them with the chat and they answer quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

When we don't use the API, we need to create some ETL with power query in order to have the required structures for our tools. The columns filled with 1 or 0 for each topic are not what we need, but I've been told there are some improvements on the way for this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Insight Chat & new reporting: Quick answers and modern visualizations"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

The new features Insight Chat and the revised reporting significantly simplify analysis. Insight Chat provides quickly understandable answers to complex questions, including context, while the new reporting impresses with clear, modern visualizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

Bugs occasionally occur, but they are addressed very quickly. Reporting bugs is difficult because it usually only happens through chat. Sharing screenshots is not possible.

Limited visualization of dashboards, e.g., filters cannot be hidden in reporting.

Subsequent anonymizations are not possible. A new upload must be performed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Pioneer of AI free text analysis with great functionality and depth of analysis"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

The AI-supported analysis of open-ended responses with numerous individual customization options is particularly valuable. Equally impressive are the clear visualization and the in-depth analysis of correlations, especially in driver analysis. Additionally, large data volumes can be processed effortlessly and the results distributed in professional dashboards. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

Some useful features are only available in premium versions. Editing uploaded data has been somewhat cumbersome so far, but it has significantly improved with V3. Overall, the software sometimes seems a bit too complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Caplena helped us increase efficiency and quality. It also allowed us to perform large studies."
5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

The user experience. The interface is really intuitive and user friendly and it surely helped increase adoption within our team. It allows us to easily code and categorise verbatim, review them etc

Then of course I like the time savings derived from the automated coding. Last but not least, I like that we can create dashboard to share with the client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

I think the overall structure of how we save projects could be improved. They should learn from structure such as SharePoint. For now we can use tags but it’s not enough and sometimes there are bugs there. It would be nice to have a structure with folders, sub folders etc. It would be then easier to retrieve projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Barbara Houdayer of Caplena

Hi Andrea,

Many thanks for sharing your experience. We're delighted to read Caplena's user experience helped increase adoption within your team :)

Thank you for your feedback regarding folder structure. We have shared your comments with our Product Team. We are always eager to explore ways to simplify finding relevant insights and data, and we will take your suggestions into consideration.

"The best AI tool for Qualitative analysis"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

The platform makes qualitative analysis fast and efficient with its smart categorization, multilingual support, and easy-to-use interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

While Caplena is an excellent tool, there’s still room for improvement in certain areas. For example, niche industry-specific terms sometimes require manual adjustments for more accurate categorization, and adding more advanced visualization options directly in the platform would make insights easier to present. Expanding the capabilities to include basic quantitative analysis alongside qualitative coding would also make it an even more powerful all-in-one solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Barbara Houdayer of Caplena

Hi Ram,

Many thanks for sharing your experience!

Your feedback matters to us. We look forward to hearing your thoughts on our new LLM Topic Assignment. It should provide improved handling of niche industry terms, reducing the need for manual adjustments and fine-tuning. Your feedback will be very valuable as this feature is currently in beta.

Also, have you already tried some of the new quantitative analysis elements we've launched within Caplena 3.0? When creating reports, you can now use the following insights elements: Numerical Distribution, Categorical Distribution, and Topic Breakdown.

If you have specific needs for more advanced visualization options, please reach out to AndrΓ© from our Customer Success team. We will consider them for future developments.

Kind regards,

Barbara

"Extremely Functional Reporting Tool Perfect to WOW Your Clients"
4/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

Caplena's reporting function serves as a "dashboard" for our clients to access their qualitative data. Being able to filter and manipulate the data in whatever way they please is extremely beneficial for us as consultants. The UX of these reports is constantly impressing our clients which we also highly appreciate.

The TEAM at Caplena is what really makes the difference. Our customer support person goes above and beyond for us and is always willing to work together on Caplena improvements. This experience alone is a best practice in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

There are some functionalities for our team specifically that do not work super well in terms of working directly within the data. The lack of ability to include images linked to certain responses for us is a point that we really require in our daily work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Barbara Houdayer of Caplena

Hi,

Many thanks your review. We love to hear that beyond our UX, our team really makes the difference!

Thanks also for sharing that being able to include images would have a great impact on your daily work.

Improved support for showing images next to comments will be taken as a feature request by our Product Team.

"Making work faster and more enjoyable"
5/5
What do you like best about Caplena?

Caplena is a huge step up from us using Excel. It’s visually appealing, easy to navigate, and makes coding open-ended survey responses much faster. As a market research agency, we deal with a lot of unstructured text. This tool has made that process far more efficient and even enjoyable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Caplena?

I really wish there was an undo button. It would make it easier to fix mistakes without having to backtrack manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Barbara Houdayer of Caplena

Hi Leanne,

Thanks so much for your feedback. We're thrilled to know Caplena makes the coding of open ends even enjoyable :)

Thank you for suggesting an "undo" button. We have shared your suggestion with the Product Team and we will keep you posted on progress.

[Update] Topic Assignment history has been released in September. You can now rewind your topic changes! Thanks again for your suggestion.
