Marvin Reviews & Product Details

Well there is a bunch of things hahaha, first, the AI capabilities are amazing, at the begging they weren't doing their best but nowadays marvin has invested in enhancing the way we can ask marvin questions, with natural language and it's amazing that we can discover unseen things, I often had to go and read all of my notes and check lists but now I have this awesome partner that helps me to do nnot anything when doing researches, another fact that I can't help falling in love with marvin is how tagging and labeling is becoming so easy, using each feature to improve the performance of my daily work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think that one of the things that can be improve is the UI, sometimes I feel like I don't know exactly whrer to go to get something moreover I know that they are improving the app eveeryday, and, probably another thing is having more options or settings to use when asking to the AI side of marvin, I mean like the tone of the answers and how deep to search into each one or all of the researches Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Marvin is that you can get a lot of cool insights from a very simple data analysis. The data analysis takes just a few minutes. If you've set up the discussion guide and have annotated the interviews or the focus groups or whatever you've done or recorded with Marvin, it's just very nice to be able to ask AI things and to come up with answers in just, like, a few minutes. One thing that I really like about the Ask AI tool is that you can use it to actually compare different interviews. So you can go into an interview and ask AI a question like what did the focus group participants or the interviewee think of this concept? And you can go into another interview, ask the same question, and compare the different answers. So that kind of helps you with comparing interviews. Even though you can also ask AI to summarize the insights from different interviews all at once, asking AI the question, the same question in different interviews gives you a lot of insight.

I think that sometimes the AI kind of trips and invents things that aren't there. If you ask a question that doesn't really have data, it's still going to give you an answer, and it's going to invent it. It's an issue with all generative AI experiences. The learning curve to understand the features and use them to solve our specific problems was more challenging. Even after reading the how-to guide and FAQs, I still struggle to figure out the best way to use the tool. It would be great to have more guidance from the Marvin team. Also, it's quite expensive compared to the competitors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Marvin is purpose-built for UXR, and it doesn't attempt to be an all-in-one solution. Because of this focus, it handles the specific tasks required in user research exceptionally well. The features are robust, yet the platform remains intuitive and straightforward to navigate. As the UXR lead, I genuinely enjoy using the tool, but what I appreciate most is how easily our non-UXR team members can jump in and use it regularly. The onboarding process was simple, which is crucial for our goal of democratizing research and empowering squads to involve users in our workflow. Teams are now sharing user insights during meetings, standups, and product strategy sessions through the HeyMarvin platform—this, to me as a UXR professional, is a true mark of success.

I wish I could do deep research in the cross-project analysis. At times the deep research does take quite a long time to produce a result. I REALLY WANT to see how many times each published insight has been viewed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HeyMarvin is the whole package. The more I use it, the more I keep discovering new ways it supports my research and design process - from organizing notes, to capturing insights, to adding interview questions ahead of time and getting accurate summaries afterward. It’s like having a thoughtful research assistant that helps me stay organized, save time, and focus on what really matters - understanding people and their needs.

The only thing that I have been noticing that I wish could be solved is that when I go into an insights document there is no way to just go back to the project I am in, you need to click the Home Marvin icon and go all the way to home and then go to your project and then insights and such. Please give us some breadcrumbs or back button! Thanks :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the Ask AI feature of Marvin. It's very helpful when I'm trying to find a specific sound bite that I remember hearing or talking to our users about. The deep research and cross-project analysis features are also something I really like because they allow us to select different projects and pull out the themes and sentiments from users who are across multiple applications. The insights feature is really helpful too. I can quickly publish an insight, and it becomes a very public-facing, shareable link for anyone outside of the organization. It's nice that contributors or everyday Marvin users who are not active can see firsthand what we're generally hearing from users or stakeholders. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes, integrating with Zendesk in Marvin feels a bit slow. Importing thousands of support tickets seems to bog down the system. I think those tickets might not be as helpful once imported since they appear pretty surface-level. I'd love better integration there and maybe it's on our side too, but adding those tickets doesn’t seem as useful yet. I'd appreciate more onboarding education to improve the integration experience. It would be cool if there was a smoother feedback gathering tool for folks not active in Marvin, like our sales reps or BD team, to input feedback without it being a manual bottleneck. A centralized area for them would make things much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been using Marvin since January of this year to perform transcriptions and interview analyses, and I am really impressed by how accurate it is, as it makes very few errors. This has been a great improvement compared to my previous experience with other platforms, whose transcriptions were not very accurate. I especially appreciate how easy it is to use Marvin, as it is very intuitive and its interface is easy to handle. The initial setup was quite simple and after a few hours of exploring the platform, I was able to understand how it worked. Additionally, the visual aids, like the explanatory bubbles that appear next to what you want to click on, are very helpful for understanding each section. Marvin has greatly streamlined the interview analysis process, allowing me to access information more quickly and accurately. I can even ask Marvin questions about specific aspects, which further speeds up the analysis. I highlight the quality of the transcription, which is crucial for some projects. The tagging functions and Marvin's ability to answer questions with broad and detailed responses are incredibly useful. The ease of handling, clear transcriptions, and agile analysis are very important factors for me and make me want to continue using Marvin in the future. I can trust Marvin to analyze large volumes of data, like a project with multiple interviews in various countries, without loss of quality. I give it a 10 and trust Marvin much more than other tools like ChatGPT for this type of analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes Marvin experiences 'glitches' that affect its functioning. Additionally, the analysis using Marvin's AI tool is not as accurate as expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Marvin to be incredibly useful for conducting discovery interviews and consolidating various forms of data, such as intercom and survey data, which makes it an invaluable repository for product research within our team. The setup process was straightforward, and even though we mainly self-served during the trial, the onboarding call provided by the team was insightful, offering great tips on maximizing Marvin's capabilities. Marvin effectively solves the issue of navigating differing opinions by enabling us to gather proper research and feedback from customers and prospects, and to present concrete evidence to stakeholders to support product development decisions. I love its feature of having a notetaker for conference calls, which eliminates the need for manual recording, and the possibility to link discussion guides to discovery calls is super helpful. The comprehensive labeling system and cutting-edge AI capabilities allowing us to perform various analyses are exceptional. Additionally, the automatic digest sent to our inboxes with updates and recent highlights keeps everyone informed on the latest changes. Marvin's seamless integration with tools like Zoom, Teams, Slack, and Intercom enhances its functionality, allowing insights sharing beyond the product team.

I appreciate Marvin's ability to record user interviews and team meetings in a secure manner, integrating seamlessly with MS Teams, which is essential for compliance with my company's requirements. The automatic generation of accurate transcripts within minutes is a significant time-saver, as it eliminates the hassle and expense often associated with transcription services. The synchronization of transcripts with their respective audio and video recordings, along with the ability to search and share them easily, enhances collaborative efficiency tremendously. The integrated analysis tools, including robust AI shortcuts, allow me to perform detailed analysis on both individual interviews and larger projects. The convenience of using the 'Analyze by Question' feature to obtain specific insights is unparalleled in enhancing the precision of my research. Additionally, the platform's research repository function is indispensable, allowing quick addition and publication of insights for stakeholder review. Having these functionalities combined in one place significantly streamlines my workflow and makes using Marvin a compelling choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find the customization options for graphs and charts for quantitative data lacking, as I need to export them in various formats directly into reports or slide decks. Additionally, the analysis of quantitative survey data is not as robust as I would like, particularly when uploading data from Qualtrics or a spreadsheet. I also found it initially intimidating to understand the setup due to the many options available on the interface, especially the multiple 'ASK AI' search bars which were confusing at first.

Marvin helps me organize all the raw materials I need for research. I handle the initial groundwork in Marvin, and then my teammates continue the process from there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While there are features available for taking notes, I think the note-taking functionality could be more flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a small group, when we were introduced to Marvin, we had no idea the value it would eventually bring our team. We have shifted from providing research insights to only the applicable stakeholders, to offering and displaying research throughout our whole organization. It's easy to implement, scalable, organized, constantly adding new features and so quick to respond to any request, enhancement idea, or support we have. It's been an absolute game changer for our small, but mighty team, and it paid for itself within 2 weeks of use. We love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a new team starting out with a repository, we had no idea what we needed. I wish I would have asked to see how other companies thought to organize the repository or get feedback about what worked and didn't with other companies. Common case of "You don't know what you don't know" and at the time of implementation, we were just super green with the idea of a repository. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
