Pros Ease of use Outcomes are clear, especially for students: you have numbers and you can 'experiment' with market simulator Cons not sure... it might be useful to have a view on how the data is actually stored in a data sheet and how the caluculations are done, but I can imagine that that is not so desirable ;-) Reasons for choosing Discover Sawtooth provided excellent customer service; we could arrange a 'grant' for a graduate student and you now provide the Acedemic subscription (which I use with great succes in a graduation course now). The other products could not provide this. Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

VC Victoria C. student Education Management ### "Good survey making tool" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 22, 2020 Pros I liked the survey analysis tool best from this software. The process of making the survey was easy and straight forward but the analysis tools are very useful. Cons Formatting survey questions was what I liked least about this survey. It was not user friendly when revising questions. Sometimes the questions would be different once it was published.

But different" 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 March 17, 2020 Its fun and a different experience. Pros It's easy to use, but it is a little different than Survey Monkey or Qualtrics. Cons You need to think about it if you're not used to using it for conjoint analysis. Sometimes the question labeling is not altogether intuitive. That may be a function of the fact I don't teach or use this much. However, Sawtooth is changing that and motivating me to incorporate this in both my teaching and research streams as a marketing professor.

AU Anonymous User Professor of Marketing Higher Education ### "Simplicity you can trust" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 16, 2020 Overall, great product. Many advanced features exist but they are nicely tucked away so that you can learn and use the techniques more readily. Pros Easy to learn, hard to break, methods I trust Cons I'm sure it is good practice to log me out automatically after a period of inactivity but I would like the option to extend the period a bit. I'm often spending a fair amount of time thinking or investigating an option and I get logged out a lot. It's not a big deal but certainly noticeable to me. Also, once in a while the MaxDiff module occasionally got stuck if I tried to make an edit. The survey keeps reloading and I have to close out the browser and log back in to get it unstuck. Reasons for choosing Discover My time is better spent doing research than writing code Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Student Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing ### "Helpful features" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 March 16, 2020 Overall the data is useful but creating the survey to get there is tough. Pros The CBC questions without a doubt are most helpful Cons Rearranging questions and question dependency is not an easy thing to do. Google forms has an easy logic flow for these questions. Also the look of the survey is very dull. I’m not sure if that’s on purpose or not.

Marketing Ph.D. Candidate Higher Education ### "Extremely Intuitive and Powerful Conjoint Tools" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 16, 2020 Pros Sawtooth provides the ability to investigate complex consumer preferences in a way that makes the set-up and implementation of the survey intuitive and simple. The ability to have the software facilitate preference combinations systematically makes setting-up the survey simple and gives me peace-of-mind that I haven't neglected to include questions that might limit my ability to address all the part-worth's I am interested in studying is of great value! Cons So far, I have yet to find any issues with the use of the software that I find problematic.

Teaching Faculty Transportation/Trucking/Railroad ### "A moderate review" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 16, 2020 Fantastic! Pros The fact that it combines the creation of profiles with their analysis! Cons The fact that I could not attach prices per attribute/level. Reasons for choosing Discover Because it could create automatically create the profiles instead of just analyzing the results.

Associate Professor Marketing and Advertising ### "Sawtooth Lighthouse" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 2.0 2.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 9/10 March 16, 2020 Pros Undoubtedly the best tool for conjoint analysis. The available features are comprehensive. Cons There is a very steep learning curve to Lighthouse. You will likely need training. 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 March 17, 2020 David, Thank you for your review! However, it seems you might have misplaced your review. It looks like you did a review for our Discover platform and only talked about our Lighthouse Studio Platform. We have another review page for Lighthouse Studio, if you would like to leave a review there! SH Steven H. Assistant Professor Higher Education ### "Excellent platform for conjoint studies" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 10/10 March 16, 2020 I am very happy with Discover. I have been using it to teach design courses (with a market research flavor) for over a decade, and Discover eases much of the burden that we used to have with Lighthouse (especially with uploading and hosting). Great product that I recommend! Pros The most important feature is the market-leading conjoint analysis capabilities, for which there are no peers. Over the past couple of years, Sawtooth has made the Discover platform easier and more powerful, which reduces the effort needed from me to use and teach the techniques to others. Cons It would be helpful for Sawtooth to provide short (2-5 minute) video tutorials for how to use certain features (e.g., setting up a CBC study, analyzing CBC results, using the market simulator).
