"Flexible, Modern Platform Backed by an Exceptionally Supportive Team"
What do you like best about Recollective?

While the platform is extremely flexible and modern with built-in tools and AI to support synthesis, the best part is actually how supportive their team members are of clients.

I just had the pleasure of partnering with Kate, our Services Consultant from Recollective. Kate was incredible. She was extremely responsive, helpful, and efficient. She also rolled with our ever-moving launch dates and supported the team as we quickly had to spin up a second board to account for a companion study. We cannot thank Kate enough!

The support didn't stop at Kate, but Emma, our Account Manager, is an incredible partner. She’s quick to help find the right solution for us and also so flexible in supporting our needs. Thank you, Emma!” Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

The invoicing process can be a bit cumbersome. Currently they invoice licenses and support separately, in addition to any added costs accrued. It would be nice to hold until the end of the project and invoice at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"AI-Enhanced Insights, Needs Better Data Import"
What do you like best about Recollective?

I'm really a fan of the AI conversations and the AI analysis tool in Recollective. I think they're very effective tools, allowing me to work with much larger samples, which is great. The AI conversations let me do interviews with a much larger sample. Before, it was just me doing them, and now with the AI support, I can reach 100 people rather than just 20. The AI analysis tool allows me to turn around analysis and reporting much faster, saving me a lot of time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

I think the only thing that doesn't work for me is the fact that I cannot at the moment, upload data from other platforms. So for example, I do a lot of interviews on Teams, and it will be super helpful if I could upload that data into Recollective and use the AI analysis tool to help me analyze data from other places.

"Innovative Hybrid Approach in Qualitative Research"
What do you like best about Recollective?

I appreciate Recollective's opportunity for a hybrid approach to market research! For us, Recollective offers our clients an asynchronous approach to qualitative research. It is often used when a hybrid option is needed, a methodology in between a full quantitative or full qualitative study. Recollective allows us to incorporate creative qualitative exercises in a digital space in conjunction with quant-like features if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

Overall, the platform is great. My feedback is mostly programming-specific. I wish there were an option to rearrange the answer types in the multimedia task when multiple are toggled and an option for participants to select their own markers in the review tasks within parameters I set. From an analysis standpoint, I do wish there were a few more quant-like analysis features, but I'm unsure what this would look like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Versatile Platform for Engaging Qualitative Research"
What do you like best about Recollective?

I use Recollective for online qualitative research studies, and what I really like is the versatility in the tasks it offers. This feature makes the survey experience more enjoyable for respondents and allows me to be creative in gaining insights from them. The platform also lets us validate respondents, save time and money, which is incredibly helpful. For shopping mission exercises, the versatility allows respondents to shop in person or online via screen recording. I also find it easy to use for image and video reviews, which is great for concept testing. The initial setup was easy, and I even rated it a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 for recommending it to friends or colleagues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

I wish the formatting flow of the Fill the Blank was a bit better - inserting pictures within that area sometimes gets wonky, and the tables we use occasionally to create grids can be difficult for respondents to complete on mobile. I also wish that there was more data provided from video reviews, specifically quantitative data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My absolute favorite platform to run research on!"

The interface (from a researcher AND respondent perspective) is stunning, easy to navigate, and very clean!

I love the ability to essentially design the perfect hoepage for each study, client, etc. in order to really immerse everyone in the experience! Whether it's for a longterm community, live research, or even just weekly forum activities Recollective always rises to the top for me!

It's user and client-friendly which is always a bonus! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

It's not as affordable as I would like, but you're getting a LOT for it, so I guess that makes sense! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recollective helps to connect all over the organisations. It very prominently manages all work according to need. The transcription just needs to be updated otherwise this software is top of the best software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great platform for online diaries"
What do you like best about Recollective?

The platform is largely intuitive so you can learn on your own the functionality. Support is also great to step in when needed. You can create tasks for online bulletin boards or host one on one or group sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

There is no live support for interviews and when the platform is having tech issues during a session you are not notified and need to make split second decisions to troubleshoot on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Perfect for Qualitative Projects"
What do you like best about Recollective?

I like that you can run multiple different types of projects on recollective, such as focus groups, individual interviews or creative writing exercises. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

Sometimes the reminder system does not properly and I have to manually send reminders/emails out to our participants. I get a lot of complaints saying that people have never received my email or reminder from recollective that their activity is coming up since it goes to the spam folder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Melissa Chong of Recollective

Thank you for your review and for highlighting how Recollective supports your qualitative projects! We're glad to hear that you find the platform versatile for running various project types like focus groups, interviews, and creative exercises.

We appreciate your feedback regarding the reminder system and are sorry to hear that some participants have experienced issues receiving reminders.

"Lots of great features but transcripting is lackluster"
What do you like best about Recollective?

I've used recollective for several projects and I like the immediate to videos, the ability to click on any part of the transcript and have the video skip to that section but that's about all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Recollective?

I find the platform confusing to navigate (finding the right project amongst many) and the automated transcription feature is useless as half of the words are wrong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Melissa Chong of Recollective

Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear that you've found value in Recollective's video functionality, especially the ability to click on transcript sections to jump directly to that part of the video.

We also appreciate your constructive comments regarding navigation and transcription accuracy. We’re constantly working on improving our platform, and your insights help us identify areas for enhancement. Regarding the transcription feature, we’ve recently launched updates utilizing AI technology to significantly improve accuracy, and we’d love for you to try it out in your upcoming projects. You can find more information about our new AI features here: https://www.recollective.com/recollective-ai

If you need assistance with navigating the platform or any other aspect, our support team is always here to help.

Thanks again for sharing your experience.
