What I like most about ODK is how easy it is to learn and start using. There are many helpful resources available, so you can quickly pick it up and become comfortable building forms and workflows. It works offline, which is essential for field settings, and it’s widely used, so there’s a strong community and good support.<br><br>Even without using its more advanced features, the core functionality has been incredibly valuable. The built-in quality control checks we can embed in surveys have significantly improved data integrity and consistency.<br><br>We also regularly use the QR code scanning feature to efficiently capture lab sample IDs and other identifiers, reducing errors and saving time.<br><br>Because it’s so user-friendly, our partners are also more willing to learn it and use it consistently. ODK has made the transition from paper-based to electronic data collection smooth and practical for our teams. Overall, it’s a reliable, flexible tool that has strengthened our data collection processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One challenge with ODK is that forms can become quite complicated to manage in Excel, especially as they get more complex. It’s manageable once you get used to it, but it would be nice if there were an easier or more intuitive way to build and organize forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
