What do you like best about Respondent?

I love respondent.io because I have the opportunity to give my viewpoints on everything from one-on-one virtual interviews to testing website prototypes to surveys. When I first joined, I wasn't sure it was going to work our for me because of where I lived. I was glad that no matter where anyone lived, participation can be done in person or remotely. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondent?

There were some tests which I felt I qualified for but didn't. I understand that comes with the territory. Yet, there were times when questions weren't clear. Whenever that happened to me, I'd answer to the best of my ability. I wish the payout was higher for some categories. There were those I saw the payouts as much as $300, but understand as a participant it's up to the researchers. Finally, I like PayPal, and there were a few times I got paid via Tango. I believe more payout options should include Zelle, Payoneer, I might as well say CashApp because I'm sure many people are thinking it, and online prepaid credit/debit cards wouldn't hurt. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I'll answer the question this way. One of the things I enjoy are the website prototypes. You get a chance to rate them before they go public. Same is true for any product surveys and product/service user tests before they're rolled out. I get to fully express my opinions on improvements, what I like and don't like, and that the opinions I express matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Despite respondent platform is a global platform sometimes I find that i do have fewer study opportunities because of limitation to participate in certain surveys due to my area or region where I live. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The platform helps me earn extra income by sharing my professional knowledge, and this feels rewarding both professionally, financially and as well as intellectually.

Respondent also provides me with with a centralized research studies which encourages my expertise as a software developer and data analyst. This saves me time as compared to looking for these opportunities on my own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing i like about the respondent is that it is very easy to communicate personally with the project head or study team and resolve our doubts.The ease of payment process and recommendation of the projects which are suitable according to my skills and profession is the best part which i liked most about the respondent . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondent?

The one thing which i disliked about the respondent is that it should mention the geographic location and skills required for the particular project as i could know it only when i starts the screener and then it shows that this study is not available in your geographical region or you do not qualify for this project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Respondent is basically solving the human gap problem as through respondent the researchers are able to communicate and pick people who are suitable for their study and research without much hurdle to find out them through different resources.It is benefitting me as i am able to contribute to the team when invited and in return i use to get lot of learning during whole study or project and in addition to it i also get money by which i can fulfill my daily needs without depending on parents Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Respondent?

Respondent connects you directly with qualified research participants or companies in need of your input, saving you time and effort in finding opportunities. Also, the platform makes it easy to find research studies tailored to your expertise or interests, ensuring a good fit. Some of the upsides of using Respondent are, flexibility: you can choose projects that fit your schedule and preferences, accessibility: the user-friendly platform simplifies finding and participating in studies, and transparency: detailed information about each study helps you decide whether it’s worth your time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondent?

The least helpful about Respondent is the high competition for spots in studies can make it difficult to get selected, even when you’re qualified, some studies feel undercompensated for the time and effort required, and communication with researchers can sometimes be unclear or delayed. I would say the least helpful of Respondent is the qualification process for studies can feel tedious and repetitive, especially when you’re disqualified without clear feedback, at times the lack of consistency in study availability can make it hard to rely on Respondent as a steady source of income, finally, while the system works, payments can take a while to process after completing a study. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I meant to click on "User" not "Business". For me, as a Respondent user it helps me find supplemental income, and they offer a flexible way to earn money by participating in research studies, interviews, and surveys. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Respondent?

I liked the organization of the site, the ease of finding surveys that fit my professional profile, and the many opportunities. Payment is fast and well organized. I did everything through PayPal for the first survey and everything went well.

I have never needed to use customer support and I try to go to the site at least once a week to check for opportunities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondent?

The filter settings to separate searches according to profile could be more rigid, as searches that are not related to my professional profile and activities often appear. At first it took a while to be accepted for any survey, I got one last month, I hope to get more. Otherwise the site is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

At first, I use Respondent as an extra income and with that, I help people in the area in which I work to solve their problems or improve their procedures and apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Respondent?

Respondent is easy to use and is accessible to everyone. It is comprehensive yet also so intricate. Respondent allowed me to express my profession, especially in marketing freely. The customized survey experience was very good as it selected the most relevant studies in which I could participate in. It also provides a good communication tool for researchers and participants.

I always see to it that I go to Respondent in a thrice-a-week basis. Their customer support was spot on, as I remembered being called on my phone, to check up some details. It was very easy to integrate into the system, and the implementation of the studies were pretty good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondent?

There were some minor technical issues in the Login Page, where if you forgot to check the Capcha, it will send in an error message if you attempt again. But everything looks so good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Respondent is solving the problem of lack of participants in significant researches in the market, and it is benefitting me somehow on the implementation and integration of the results in a real life basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Respondent?

I started using Respondent a year ago, and it has truly exceeded my expectations. The platform carefully analyzes your age, profession, demographics, and job profile, and then matches you with projects that are most relevant to you. The experience has been extraordinary.

Kudos to the excellent team behind it! I highly recommend Respondent to all my friends and have shared it on my social media to help spread the word. This will not only benefit other users but also attract more participants and researchers to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Suggestions and Feedback for Respondent

While my experience with Respondent has been overwhelmingly positive, I do have one suggestion. Currently, there is no option to indicate a dislike for a project. I believe it would be beneficial to allow participants to have 5 screeners instead of just 3 within a 24-hour period. This would not only help participants generate more revenue but also benefit the Respondent team by increasing engagement and participation.

Other than that, everything has been excellent—truly extraordinary, with out-of-the-box thinking that sets Respondent apart from other platforms.

Great work, Respondent Team! I’m fully committed to promoting this platform, as I’ve been looking for a reliable and rewarding opportunity like this to earn money and enhance my knowledge through real-world online experiences.

Also people who dont have email id but employed it is a issue for them to participate in all survey they can only participate in general activities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Yes, I was able to give a good picture to researchers about the questions they asked before itself I was able to prepare for the same. It enhances our knowledge to worldwide and also develops our knowledge.I can take an active survey according to my feild and earn also by helping the community Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
