I found that setting up Discuss was incredibly easy and user-friendly, allowing me to get started in just a few minutes. Its intuitive interface made it effortless to navigate. The platform was exceptionally beneficial for my project as it facilitated easy navigation through interview questions displayed on the screen, which was extremely useful during discussions. I appreciate Discuss's resemblance to Teams meetings but with additional features, such as the ability for me, as a moderator, to independently leave or end sessions for all participants—a feature that greatly aids in managing discussions. Additionally, I value the platform's interactivity, which I find crucial during challenging business calls, as it enables me to discreetly manage aspects of the conversation. Furthermore, I would love for Discuss to be integrated into my daily routine, as its features would be highly beneficial on a regular basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing I dislike Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like using Discuss for several reasons. First, it's an incredibly easy way to connect with consumers and gather insights, especially valuable for exploring the experiences of pet parents. This connection is essential for understanding the consumer journey and thinking about future innovations. I also find Discuss to be super efficient and it significantly reduces the workload that typically follows an interview, freeing up my time for other tasks. The ability to view previous interviews in an easy format is invaluable. I appreciate that Discuss provides transcripts and AI-generated summaries which help in capturing key moments effectively. Furthermore, I love how it automatically displays questions on the side of the screen, ensuring that all the right questions are asked throughout the interview process. This functionality makes the user experience smoother and helps in maintaining focus during discussions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found it confusing when setting up my account because initially, I only had view access to past interviews conducted by my business but couldn't locate my upcoming interview. It wasn't until I clicked a diary invite in my Outlook calendar that I found where my interview link was. Additionally, during calls, it was very confusing to distinguish between participants as there were no labels indicating whether someone was an interviewer, moderator, or pet parent. This led to misunderstandings about who was who during the session. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Discuss platform has become the go-to platform for all of my clients, and for good reason. The platform's features are designed for research from the ground up and make conducting qualitative research feasible on a global scale.

Discuss' feature set enables all manner of virtual qualitative exercises, including concept evaluation, launching polls, screen sharing, participant mark-up, and many more. On top of all this, the platform is incredibly solid and runs well on a wide variety of devices and with varying strengths of bandwidth.

Beyond this is the rapidly evolving Genie AI platform, which enables a wide range of ways of leveraging their AI engine to directly address key research questions, query any segment of participant for granular insights. And it can do so at scale for any global market via auto transcription of interviews conducted in a wide range of languages into English.

My experiences of using Discuss for participant recruitment have also been excellent, and the quality of their participants are consistently strong and on-target.

The thing that really separates Discuss, however, is the platform's excellent real-time session support. They ensure each participant's connection, audio, and video are solid prior to each session, and play an important role in ensuring every session runs smoothly.

Since beginning to use Discuss in 2019, I've gotten to the point that can't imagine doing my work without it. It enables me to work efficiently and in markets I couldn't have imagined even a couple of years ago.

In my opinion, Discuss is the gold standard for online qualitative research. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Discuss excels in nearly every aspect, one enhancement that could elevate the experience even further is the integration of background noise cancellation for both moderators and participants.

This feature would significantly improve audio clarity during group sessions, especially when participants are in noisy environments. It would also reduce the need for frequent muting, allowing for more natural and uninterrupted conversations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Discuss is an excellent platform for research, both focus groups and one-on-one interviews. The ease of project set-up, onboarding respondents and live support during groups are particularly useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are two areas which would be useful to improve. Firstly, schedule set up: you should be able to schedule interviews in the local time zone, the calendar should start on a Monday rather than a Sunday, and a 24-hour clock would be more helpful than the AM/PM system. Secondly, during the session you should be able to toggle a chat notification sound, as currently it is easy to miss a message. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think it's a great platform. It has integrated with our system perfectly and we're able to use it the way we want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only one thing that I would improve on is to educate your staff a little bit more in the customer service area Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Discuss incredibly useful for conducting studies in our market research company. The platform is particularly advantageous for facilitating online, one-on-one studies involving moderators, observers, clients, and team members. From a functionality perspective, the 'Technical Check' feature stands out as it significantly saves our time by ensuring participants complete necessary checks beforehand, thus avoiding any technical hiccups during the study. Moreover, I appreciate the capability of observing participants, which allows me to monitor if any participant encounters connectivity issues. These features collectively enhance our overall research process and efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like it to be more affordable because it was expensive during the last study. The pricing seemed high, especially for one-on-one sessions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Discuss gives me the ability to easily keep track of my projects and see an overview of them. It allows for easy end-client user experience to observe research Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform presents a learning curve that can impede broader adoption and scalability. As a result, both staff and end-clients who wish to take part in discussions are required to undergo at least an initial walkthrough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
