## Reviews

### "Great Survey/Data Analysis Platform" — 5.0/5

> **Elena** | *December 3, 2023* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a secure way to create surveys that the institution I work at allows me to use. There's lots of ways to create surveys using templates, building from scratch and fully customizing to your needs.
> 
> **Cons**: There's a huge learning curve to fully understand how to create surveys due to the complexity of options in creating them.

-----

### "Flexible, Powerful Tool with a Learning Curve" — 4.0/5

> **Ginger** | *July 9, 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Qualtrics XM is a powerful, flexible tool that can perform funtions as basic as a survey on lunch preferences to research surveys with IRB-required anonymity. The variety of question types, delivery methods, collaboration options, and export settings make Qualtrics a versatile tool for a wide variety of settings.
> 
> **Cons**: Due to its capacity for high-level performance, many of the tools, options, and settings are not intuitive. Significant time and effort along with thorough training are needed to make use of all the features available to Qualtrics XM users.
> 
> Overall, using Qualtrics XM has been a positive experience. Mostly I and my team used it for collecting basic data, however, when I had the opportunity to use it for research data collection, I was impressed with the flexibility of the settings and logic to deploy a high-level, IRB-approved survey. It just took some time to learn it, and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

-----

### "Good product held by poor support and reporting options" — 3.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *February 10, 2026* | Higher Education Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Advanced survey logic, routing, skip logic. Advanced question types, workflows, survey distribution methods
> 
> **Cons**: Poor customer service. Poor reliability, changes nad updates are made in a haphazard manner. Reporting (even the Results Dashboard) is lacking in functionality.
> 
> Good tool for collection data, mediocre (at best) for reporting and analysis of results. Terrible customer support - I cannot stress this enough

-----

### "Has most of what you need, missing a lot of extensive options for customization" — 4.0/5

> **Connor** | *March 16, 2026* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like how it is optimized for creating normal surveys. For most of your projects, you don’t need to spend extra time on things that should be easy because they made it easy to do those things.
> 
> **Cons**: There are not enough customization options for some of our projects, and when using personalized links, the survey expires a week or so after being opened with no ability to change the duration before it expires
> 
> Overall we like Qualtrics and it gives us everything we need to draft and send out surveys for our company
