The results are in and we’re thrilled to report that Forrester has recognized us as a Leader in “The Forrester WaveTM: Experience Research Platforms, Q2 2023”!

A huge thank you to all of our partners, customers, and People Nerds who have supported us over the years. Your feedback has been instrumental in keeping us flexible and innovative in this industry and we couldn’t have done it without you.

What it means to be named a leader

The report outlines Forrester’s evaluation of all the top platforms in Experience Research. They look at criteria including manage participants, manage data, and innovation to determine their rankings.

The organization evaluated Dscout among seven providers of Experience Research Platforms and ranked us among the leaders for the strength of our current offering and strategy.

It’s a huge honor to be recognized alongside the biggest names in the industry—having built Dscout through thoughtful investment and an extreme commitment to service.

Dscout earned the highest rating (5.0) in 15 criteria

A 5.0 is the highest possible rating on the scale. We achieved this in criteria including:

• Manage participants (organizing and building a panel for recruitment)
• Create studies (guidance in mixed-method research)
• Manage data (creation and sharing of video reels and study results)
• Supporting products & services (to enhance end-to-end customer experience)
• Innovation (focused on new ways to provide value to clients)
• Community (promoting learning, collaboration, and sharing of best practices)

It’s extremely gratifying to be recognized in these areas as we continue to elevate our product to better support our customers across the entire research process.

Dscout’s vendor profile

In their evaluation, Forrester also creates a vendor profile for each platform. Here’s what they had to say about Dscout:

“Dscout is making a more human tomorrow by combining participants and study depth.”

“[Dscout’s] specialty is the quality of its study participants, known as ‘the Pool’ which has been carefully curated over time using a mix of technological and manual efforts.”

“With the acquisition of Panelfox, Dscout will continue to build on the participant quality it is known for. It will respond to customer requests for expanded evaluative study capabilities, increased automated analysis, and expansion of its global presence.”

“The Dscout platform is designed for flexibility and ease of use by research practitioners and research novices alike.”

“[Dscout] will respond to customer requests for expanded evaluative study capabilities, increased automated analysis, and expansion of its global presence.”
