Professor Research ### "Discovertext for qualitative research" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 September 10, 2022 Good. We are glad - very glad the tool is available . We use several tools to get a better insight into the data sets we create. Pros Ease of use for qualitative research of data collected and tabulated both online and offline. My team and I often even import data with urls in the set even if not directly scraped via discovertext because we can view the data "in context" Cons Still working through the data coding system - it seems intuitive - but hard to say Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. DR Debipreeta R. Doctoral Student Education Management ### "Using DiscoverText for Scraping Twitter data and Textual Analysis" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 August 25, 2022 I'm primarily looking at coding and textual analysis of hashtag data. The meta data features are an excellent add on. Pros The software is very user friendly. It is easy to navigate by self and the tutorials are a great help for any novice user to get started with it. Excellent resources provided in terms of various usages of the software. Cons The only thing I think the software needs to upgrade is the size of data we can upload on DiscoverText using JASON files format. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor September 5, 2022 We appreciate the generous review and we can certainly we can increase the file size capability for JSON files. MA Meshal A. PhD candidate Think Tanks ### "Easy to use and great value for price" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 July 20, 2022 Great quality for the price! Pros Ease of use, relative to other similar software. Cons Limitations of extracting Twitter historical data, I wish there is an option embedded through the program itself to import historical data without dealing directly with the Twitter API. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 25, 2022 I appreciate the constructive feedback and we are exploring a direct pipeline for academics exactly the way you describe it. JB James B. PhD Candidate Higher Education ### "Helpful software for capturing Twitter data" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 July 5, 2022 Pros Although there is a learning curve to the platform, I found the software easy to use and simple to integrate into coding procedures already in use. I have found this to be the most useful platform when conducting analyses of twitter data — especially when collecting the data from the twitter API. Cons There is a learning curve when it comes to the different elements of the platform. However, there are plenty of helpful resources to help manage. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor July 25, 2022 We really appreciate teh feedback and if you need anything just let us know. SF Saadia F. Graduate Research Assistant Higher Education ### "Excellent for mining twitter data. " 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 June 29, 2022 Pros The software is very easy to use. The best feature is that you get to see tweet as the tweets are supposed to look like. An excel sheet takes the charm away. This is why I can spend hours and hours reading the data without losing interest. Cons It would be better if the filtering steps were linked. As of now I have to use the folding criteria to narrow things down and look at the count of tweets but I can’t immediately use the same filters for actual sub setting of data Switched from [Gephi](https://www.capterra.com/p/233118/Gephi/) Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor June 30, 2022 That is excellent feedback. We actually do have an advanced multi-factor filter in beta that just needs to be released so this serves as a good reminder to get it out to all users. Under the current system you can filter by one criteria to a bucket then apply a second filter to the items in the bucket, successively "stacking" the filters. SK Sezgi K. Ph.D. student/ TA & RA Higher Education ### "An amazing software for social media & network analysis!" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 June 29, 2022 It is great to see how Stu supports academics and researchers, I was able to recommend the tool to colleagues in another University who were also given free and high-capacity licenses. We are hoping to pursue a research project on the markers of parochial empathy observed through Twitter data of users commenting on Syrian refugees in Turkey in the next 6 months using DiscoverText. DiscoverText bonding Temple University\`s communication program with Bilkent University\`s! Pros It is incredibly easy to collect and clean data in different types and formats. I particularly worked with Twitter and newspaper data and found it particularly useful for picking out the pertinent content (e.g. hate and support discourses towards refugees within the context of Turkish users). I was able to download the data to use it with Gephi and come up with invigorating network illustrations. Also nice to be able to label the data on the software and create multiple archives. Cons Exporting the data as an excel sheet :( I know I can do it but somehow I need to check the tutorials and my emails to figure out how to do it, could playing around with the design of the option help? Reasons for choosing DiscoverText Price, functionality, ease of communication Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor June 30, 2022 This is a generous review and we are grateful. I would be happy to host a meeting to go over the export features and I will make a note to add a video to the tutorials. CH Camryn H. Student International Affairs ### "Tool for Research" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 June 28, 2022 Pros I use this program to code survey responses to identify themes and find it very straightforward. I like the ability to type in a letter for a code and apply it instead of clicking, however often this feature does not work for me. Cons Just that it glitches sometimes so I don’t know what will or will not work when I use it. But recently it has been consistent Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor June 30, 2022 I would be grateful to learn more about this issue. If you are coding and another person set up the coding scheme, it may be the owner or manager of the project created a coding scheme that requires more advanced skills, for example, when using the multi-keystroke coding interface. RY Rubens Y. PhD Candidate Public Policy ### "Easy to use and powerful display" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 May 3, 2022 Very useful and easy to use. It save a lot of time and effort and allow you to get to the analysis easily. Pros It is very helpful to get the data from Twitter and sort results without programming. It offers basic stats and charts based on the data retrieved and the opportunity to easily group it according to the researcher interest. Display visually the Tweet as shown in Twitter, allowing to keep the sense of it, but in addition offers all the metadata in a convenient form. Cons Some minor UX details (i.e. page after reloading sometimes hide some tabs or does not jump to the top of the data displayed). When filtering data, it doesn't allow to combine some metadata fields (i.e. location declared in bio), so you must filter data step by step. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor June 30, 2022 Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I agree there are a few display issues that need an update and you are correct to point them out. LA Leah A. Associate Professor of English Higher Education ### "Great Tool to Gather and Sort Tweets" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 November 22, 2021 Pros I have found DiscoverText extremely useful for my current project - an analysis of a large group of #MeToo tweets. I looked at other commercial products and I found them all very expensive and challenging and mostly geared to marketing within commerce. DiscoverText is more geared to research, and I very much appreciate that. I also appreciate how available \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\] is to users who need technical support. Early on in my project, he consulted with me on how to go about searching, gathering, and analyzing my data. Cons I don't have anything to put here. Thanks! Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site. All submitted reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor December 21, 2021 Thanks for the review Leah. That is an important topic to study and we are happy to help if possible. Did you know we have the first 3 days of #metoo in three languages? The DiscoverText collaborative architecture makes it possible for many professors and students to study this data. We are here if you want to schedule a class training. ~Stu JJ Jessica J. Adjunct Professor Higher Education ### "Sift Social Text Quickly After Learning Curve " 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 November 7, 2019 Tweet content aggregation, organization, and analysis for marketing. Pros This application makes light work of text content aggregation, cleaning, and organization, which is especially valuable to social media analysts in their social listening efforts. Cons There is a substantial learning curve to using this program. Aligning the feeds is not user-friendly for first timers, and I think this could be streamlined a bit more. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort. All incentivized reviews are subject to our verification process prior to publication. Response from Vendor December 21, 2021 Hi Jessica. Thanks for writing a review.
