EX Always On Feedback

Last modified: March 4, 2020

Always-on feedback helps organizations gather continuous and targeted employee feedback in real-time by meeting employees where they already are — such as company intranet sites or internal mobile apps. Enable and encourage employees to proactively share anonymous feedback in the flow of work by offering a digital suggestion box/button on internal web portals or mobile apps, where feedback on any topic or experience can be initiated by the employee. (Examples: employee mood tracker on intranet homepage, daily open-ended question, employee suggestion box.) Or, capture feedback on specific topics and important everyday experiences by triggering a targeted feedback tab/pop-up on specific intranet pages, internal mobile experiences, or even external sites, where feedback can be initiated by an organization's program owner for a persistent or limited amount of time. (Examples: external candidate page, internal benefits page, HR services portal, post-learning module, IT self-service page.) Anonymous employee feedback is analyzed and directed to the appropriate internal teams so they can take strategic action. In addition, centralized dashboards provide an overview of insights and open-text comment analysis, making it easy for continuous employee feedback to be synthesized over time and automatically funneled to the right teams.

Multiple Responses Support for EX Lifecycle Projects

Last modified: April 3, 2019

HR teams can now configure their Employee Lifecycle projects to allow participants to submit multiple responses depending on specific criteria.

For example, when an employee takes an Onboarding Lifecycle survey, leaves the company and then rejoins, she should be allowed to take the Onboarding survey again. Users can enable this functionality by going to Survey options and choosing specific metadata criteria that will govern a participant’s ability to submit another response for the Employee Lifecycle project. Multiple Responses Note:
  • This feature is only available for Employee Lifecycle projects.
  • Once you set the metadata field for the Multiple Responses in Survey Options, you cannot change it (though you can disable Multiple responses functionality)

ExpertReview

ExpertReview, powered by iQ, is like having a Ph.D research methodologist on-staff to personally review every research question and project. It automatically predicts if you’re at risk of poor response rates or low data quality, scores your research project, and offers professional recommendations to improve the research quality.

It harnesses the power of data to predict how likely will users drop off, straight line, or become disengaged while taking the survey. Based on these predictions, it recommends optimizations to your survey. For example, it will recommend the optimal number of text entry questions you should have in your survey or the number of choices you should stay below to ensure high completion rates.

It will also flag potential errors such as incorrect logic or incorrect usage of piped text and tell you how to fix it. This avoids costly errors that would have resulted in multiple support calls at best and invalid data at worst.

Lastly, it also checks for whether the survey meets certain industry requirements such as WCAG Accessibility compliance. It will recommend changes so you can ensure the survey meets those standards. While acting on those recommendations would help improve the quality of the data, it is designed to be a recommended and not obstruct your regular workflow. You can always choose to ignore recommendations and launch the survey at any point you like. ExpertReview is your digital research assistant that’s available when you need it! You can find additional information on the Qualtrics support site.

Survey Versioning and Publishing

Last modified: July 11, 2018

Survey Versions allow you to save multiple iterations of your survey. You can preview or even restore old versions of your survey at your convenience. Publishing enables greater control over response data quality, as it is now possible for users to control the timing of publishing new versions of a survey.

Publishing a New Survey

When you publish a survey, it’ll be a little different if your survey is active and open to responses than if it is new. If your survey is new, the first time you publish will also activate a survey.
1. When you are ready to save your changes and present them to your respondents, click Publish.
Publish survey
2. Read the description and note that your survey is about to be activated. This means you will have to press publish after making changes, or else the active survey will look like the last published version.
Publish description
3. In addition to publishing your survey, you are saving a new version of it. Add a Description of the changes you’ve made. This can be whatever you like. Dates will automatically be stored with the version, so don’t worry about adding date labels.
4. Click Publish.
Your survey has now been activated! On this window is the Anonymous Link. Learn more about how this link functions in the linked support page.
Survey activated

Publishing Changes to Active Surveys

Sometimes after sending your survey out, you’ll notice you need to fix something, or that there’s some important content you left out. If you edit your survey after it has been distributed, the changes will not go live until you publish the survey. This allows you to carefully review all of your changes before your participants see them.
Click the Publish button when you decide that you want the edits you made to be pushed to the active survey. The publication status will appear to inform you which version of the survey you are currently viewing. Here, it says Published.
Publication status

Saving vs. Publishing

Your changes are always saved automatically in Qualtrics, and they work exactly as explained in the Automatic vs. Manual Saving support page. Publishing just determines when your respondents see your saved changes.

My Tasks List for Survey Projects

Last modified: May 2, 2018

Newly created survey projects will feature a “My Tasks” list to guide users through the steps to complete the project from survey setup through distributions and viewing results. The task list is especially useful for users new to Qualtrics to learn the steps needed to launch a successful survey but is also valuable as a checklist for experienced users to ensure they have not forgotten to do something.
System events will automatically mark steps as complete (e.g., activating a survey for distribution will complete the “Distribute Survey” step), and users can also manually mark steps as complete or incomplete. This flexibility gives users the power to ensure the task list always presents a valid snapshot of the current state of their projects. Click here to learn more about how to use this feature.

The task list is available for survey projects only at this time. If desired, users can dismiss the task list by hiding it when it is no longer necessary, or reopen it at a later date when it becomes useful again.

Dashboard Response Count Thresholds

Last modified: April 4, 2018

Qualtrics now allows setting thresholds on widgets or at the page level on CX dashboards, to hide data if the number of responses does not meet a minimum value. This is particularly useful to maintain responder privacy when using filters or when looking at team rankings to avoid seeing folks with too few responses to consider a representative score. The threshold can be applied at the page or widget level.

Survey Flow Integrated UX

Last modified: January 3, 2018

The key area Qualtrics has innovated on is to integrate the survey flow which houses the complex logic in the surveys with the survey editor. Key benefits are:
  1. Avoid Context Switch: Like any programming language, survey programming involves going back and forth between the survey logic and the survey editor. This switch often results in loss of context, wasting valuable time for the survey programmer. This waste is eliminated.
  2. Reuse: Like global variables in survey code programming, Embedded Data variables and the logic associated with it is called multiple times in the survey. Survey programmers can now easily view these from a drop down or with a simple click.

Qualtrics Social Connect: Improvements to Handle Time Calculations

Last modified: March 1, 2023

Handle time calculations have been improved to better reflect the actual time a user spent on a mention. Previously, handle time was calculated for actions that happened outside of the active date range (the data set, date range + 28 days). Going forward, handle time is calculated in the same way action times (reply time, resolve time, and more) are calculated, by taking the data set of date range + 28 days but calculating handle time based on the actions that happened within the date range. For example, on a tweet that’s 30 days old, a user spends 5 minutes tagging the tweet on the day it was crawled, then 2 days ago the user spends another 5 minutes tagging that same tweet. If the date range is ‘last 28 days’, previously the handle time would have been 10 minutes, but with the new calculation it is 5 minutes.

5-Level Sentiment Classification in Text iQ

Last modified: April 7, 2021

Qualtrics customers love how Text iQ automatically detects sentiment in open text comments, and how it provides various tools to analyze and visualize the output of sentiment classification. Since sentiment classification is subjective and heavily depends on the context, we strive to improve classification quality on an ongoing basis. Businesses want to make rapid decisions, and cannot waste time rationalizing and arguing about subtle differences between numeric sentiment scores. Qualtrics has made substantial enhancements to the sentiment classification algorithm to significantly improve classification quality for unstructured XM data. This new model continues delivering the unique value of Text iQ, tuned and optimized for XM scenarios. Starting in Q4, we will be gradually rolling out the new sentiment model and user experience. This update will introduce two new sentiment labels - “very positive” and “very negative” - to indicate the strongest sentiment in each comment. This helps customers like you focus on the most critical opportunities and strengths. The 5 underlying numerical scores will be aligned with the sentiment labels, which will not only make the analysis more efficient, but also reduce the false sense of precision and complexity experienced by many of our customers using numerical scores in their analysis.

Conjoint: Willingness to Pay

Last modified: August 7, 2019

Conjoint analysis is a powerful tool for understanding the underlying preferences behind an individual’s choices. In its traditional form, the output of conjoint analysis is a set of unitless measures of level importance called utility scores. An individual’s utility scores tell us which levels that individual prefers and dislikes, and by how much. Willingness to pay (WTP) is a feature which allows us to convert utility score into dollar value. A price feature must be included in the conjoint setup with a range of price options. As part of the conjoint analysis, the utility scores associated with the price feature will be converted into a price per utility ratio. Using the price to utility ratio, we can determine how much an individual is willing to pay for a particular level when compared to another level. We can also determine how much an individual is willing to pay for a specific package in the simulator compared to other packages.

For each level in the primary feature, users will tell us which levels in those conditional features can go with this level in the primary feature, and which ones can’t.

Last modified: April 7, 2021

Before Response ticker with no fields for editing labels After Response ticker with fields for editing labels

Ability to apply a ticker value label

Shows the hover label and where it can be set in the editing pane

"View full record" moved under a menu

To get ready for future improvements that will allow users to take more actions on responses they see in widgets, we’ve moved "View full record" behind a menu ( ) that shows on each ticker card.  This option will only show for users that have the “Show full response when clicked” option is enabled in the widget editing pane. Shows menu where more options are hidden Shows a full record

Show ticker value on hover option is removed

In order to make the widget more accessible, the option to show value on hover has been removed from the widget editing pane.  Widgets that currently have this option selected will show the ticker value by default. Before Option mentioned is in pane After Option removed from pane

Updated Gauge Chart User Experience

Last modified: September 2, 2020

This release updates the chart styling to have accessible default color contrast ratios and consistent (minimum and maximum) typography sizing to reduce visual noise on the dashboard, especially when there are multiple charts, and for accessibility compliance. The new chart also includes updated interactive styling to reduce noise and confusion about the state of the metric. The design fills with the color that the primary metric currently resides in. For example, if CSAT is 4.3 and green represents values above 4.2, the gauge fill is colored green. When the consumer hovers on the chart, the range thresholds are revealed so that encoded data is included in the experience to help the consumer understand where they are with respect to the thresholds and their goal. This effect is to mitigate the problem that many charts have threshold ranges with 60% or more of the range represented as "red," which gives the visual impression that there is a problem when in fact the gauge sits in a "green" position. The interactive state also includes a tooltip that explains the numeric, colored threshold ranges. The hover state is displayed on export so that the threshold ranges are available in a non interactive state (e.g., PDF or print). Before: Example of a Gauge Chart in a dashboard After: Example of a Gauge Chart in a dashboard Same gauge chart, with mouse hovered over to show range in a tooltip

Autocomplete

Last modified: May 1, 2019

The Auto Complete feature is taking a very common user experience and applying to the context of survey taking. Auto-complete is also referred to as text search, incremental search, inline search, instant search and several other variants. The most simple explanation is that when a user types one or more characters into a text entry input, a list (commonly a set) of options is presented as discrete choices that can be selected. The selection of a choice(s) can then trigger other user flows like automatic redirection of the experience or simply a reflection of a state that may be persisted to a more durable persistence layer (like a survey response on page submission). In our use case it simply binds the choice value to the question state which gets persisted when the page is submitted.
