What do you like best about Forsta?

Their technicians are very helpful to the moderators. They do try to help the respondents as much as possible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forsta?

The charge for every edit needed is little high, considering it doesn't take that much labor. Also, just trying to get a log in is hard so I always log in as a guest Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forsta solving and how is that benefiting you?

We just use them for the platform for hosting interviews and some transcripts. The transcripts are really nice since they can access the files internally and cuts down on the time needed to download and then send to an independent company Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forsta?

ConfirmIt was a very powerful tool. It was easy to work with, user friendly, client friendly, and programmer-friendly. At the time we used it, It was the most powerful tool in the industry. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forsta?

I can say that one of the only reasons we had to leave ConfirmIT/Forsta at the time was solely based on price and price alone. Had it been more in our range, we would have definitely stayed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forsta solving and how is that benefiting you?

ConfirmIT was later acquired by Forsta. As far as the problems in ConfirmIT at the time, were a lack of a highlighting text tool, heat maps, and lack of mobile. They had SODA at the time, and it wasn't very efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forsta?

Forsta Surveys (formerly Decipher) has robust survey tools for building simple to complex surveys. I enjoy the variety of question types, logic, and customization that is available. Sometimes there are surprising limitations that seem unnecessary, but the platform does allow for custom XLM coding to make it more unique. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with XML so this is more of a hindrance than a help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forsta?

Overall the UI is outdated and clunky. There is a steep learning curve to learn the "quirks" of the system. I think the product team should dedicate some serious time and resources to updating and refreshing the UI to make it cleaner, drag and drop, and better button layouts. Sometimes the layout of the page cuts off words or dialogue boxes. Also, sometimes the widgets you drag and drop mess up the XML coding on the back end so you have to go edit the code to fix the error. Also, the reporting features are quick week. Crosstabs are clunky and not straightforward. Dashboards don't work very well. Very limited on pricing survey features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forsta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Scalable survey platform for our market research needs. Unlimited users is helpful to get more people into the platform. Being able to send email notifications about submissions are also helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Forsta?

Survey programming is easy with this tool. You can apply masking and skipping logic in just some clicks. A high level of customization can be done through its question properties. Survey link testing is super easy with its tool you can see all terminations. Codes and logical flows which is really helpful and time-saving and if you and aware of its all features you can program a lengthy survey in super quick time with an XML editor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Forsta?

There is too much to learn about this tool. The knowledge base is good but if they can add more detailed videos on complex programming setups. It will be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Forsta solving and how is that benefiting you?

Applying complex quotas and nested or positional quotas is easy and where we have requirements like this we are using this tool in programming to handle such requirements. Without much effort, you can program dynamic or custom questions that gives good look and feel. When we have a requirement of interactive questions I always prefer to program surveys in this tool.
