New Pricing, Self-Sign Up and Dig Solutions

New Pricing

To reflect new functionality and feature tiering, we’ve produced 2 brand new pricing plans. You’ll see a full breakdown of our new pricing, broken out into a Professional and Enterprise license.

Professional is designed to serve brands and businesses that don’t require a Customer Success Manager and don’t leverage some of our more complex reporting and study design features. These users will have access to our Help Center and chat support, will have access to basic study creation features, and will exclusively pay for Audience Marketplace and subscriptions via credit card.

Enterprise is designed for our enterprise and agency clients; those accounts that require multi-language and multi-survey functionality, invoicing, and features like drop-off reporting and the Idea Map. Please get in touch to learn more.

Self-Signup & Trial

Our self-signup flow is now live on Upsiide!

When you visit the new pricing page and select the Professional plan you have the opportunity to start a free 30-day trial* after submitting your company and credit card details.

This is a huge step in a new direction for Upsiide - allowing you to get your hands on the platform quickly, muck around with the features, and validate if Upsiide is a good fit for your business. To help you get comfortable with the platform quickly, we’ve also created a product tour that calls out key areas of the dashboard for a user to peruse, as well as a beautifully-designed example study that showcases how to leverage Upsiide's functionality.

*Note that ‘free trial’ does not mean you will be able to send studies for free. Rather, it means we’re waiving the platform subscription fee for 1 month.

Claims Screen & Assess Blueprints

The Dig Solutions just keep on coming! We've implemented 2 new claims testing Blueprints, created in conjunction with our consultants at Dig Insights. Head into the Upsiide platform to find them in your Blueprints library.

2.6.2 - Audience Data & Study Reporting UI Revamp

We're excited to share this release which brings some new functionality, improvements to old, and many bug fixes and performance enhancements along the way

Audience Data

A popular request among Upsiide elite, reporting on Audiences is here! You'll now see a new sidebar tab called "Audience Data" in each study which will break down your core Demographics, Advanced Targets, and Custom Targets. For Custom Targets only, you can even see where and why people are disqualified from your study.

Note: Custom Qualifier disqualification is not backward compatible. Meaning, you'll only see this in your new studies.

Study Reporting Revamp

With all the exciting additions to Upsiide in the past year, the reporting section was looking a little... err... disjointed. Our design team has tweaked things across the board for a more unified experience that's easier to read and interpret than ever before. You'll also notice an improved navigational sidebar to make finding results a breeze.

And as always, various smaller improvements and bug fixes across the board.

2.6.1 - New Question Types, Settings Window, Exports & More

This release is filled to the brim with brand new functionality to help our clients do more, more easily, on Upsiide!

New Question Types

Emoji Question

We're introducing a brand new question type that allows you to leverage a set of 24 emojis to capture quantifiable data from respondents about how an idea makes them feel.

These 24 emojis will serve as answer options that a respondent can select.

The Emoji question type can be used in the Questions and Idea Split study sections.

You have the ability to decide exactly how many emojis you'd like each respondent to select. For instance, if you only want a respondent to select a specific number of emojis, you'd select 'exactly X' on the right-hand side settings window.

Grid Question

A grid question is a group of multiple-choice questions traditionally displayed in a grid of rows and columns. On Upsiide, the rows are called Attributes and the columns are called Answer Options. The rows present the stimuli (things being tested) to the respondents, and the columns offer a set of predefined answers (typically a scale) that apply to the Attributes in question.

Because Upsiide is a mobile-native experience for respondents, we've ensured that each attribute is shown in isolation alongside the full set of answer options. This means that the Grid question has been optimized for mobile responses.

The order of attributes can be randomized by toggling 'Randomize Attributes' in the settings window. The same goes for randomizing answers - select 'Randomize Answers' in the settings window.

This will help ensure robust answers that are unbiased due to the preferential order of attributes.

Grid questions can be used as a custom qualifier when selecting your audience. They can also be used as a question type in Idea Screen and Idea Split study sections.

The attributes from a Grid question can also be used as filters when doing an Idea Split. This allows you to more easily navigate between the best and worst performing ideas, uncovering insights across audience subgroups.

Question Type Amendments

Single & Multi-Select Question Type

Single and multi-select question types have merged into one - the 'Select' question type.

When creating a Select question, you decide if you'd like to make it a single or multi-select by toggling ON 'Multiple Selection' in the settings window.

You also have the option to indicate how many answers you'd like each respondent to select. You can choose from these options:

• 'Up to _'

• 'Exactly _'

• 'Unlimited'

Open End Numeric

We've made it possible for you to use our open text question type to collect exclusively numeric values, down to a decimal point. You can also incorporate negative numbers.

To do this, select 'Numeric Value Only' in the settings window when creating an Open Text question.

Images in More Places

You can now include images in your response options, as well as the overall question. This will allow respondents to select an image as opposed to text when answering.

N.B. You will still need to include a text label for each answer option, but you can hide the text label from respondents in the settings window on the right-hand side.

Settings

We've re-jigged the settings window to the right-hand side of your study creator dashboard. This makes it easier to quickly make changes to your study, while also referencing those changes while reviewing your work.

You've also now got the ability to choose advanced study settings in the 'Advanced Settings' drop-down. This makes it easy to select how you'd like image answers displayed to respondents answering the study.

Data and Exports

Raw Data

We've made changes to our exports that make it significantly easier to work with the raw Upsiide data, depending on your need.

You can now export all of the data from your study into one zip file, or you can export sections of your study based on the section types.

The study sections are as follows:

• Question Responses - when using single or multi-choice, open text, grid, or emoji questions.

• Idea Screen - when testing ideas, leveraging the swiping and trade-off functionality.

• Idea Split - when assessing a handful of ideas (in isolation) against specific questions.

For Idea Screen and Idea Split exports you'll get export files that relate to each other, helping you paint the full picture of the data you have. On the platform, we call this 'relational data'.

Component Exports

We've also improved the exports from specific Upsiide questions and studies. In most cases, you can export images (png format) or data tables (CSV format). These files do not include lots of additional information about your study, current base size, and current filters applied.

Importing Data

It is now easier to import relevant data to the Upsiide platform so that you can use these data groups as filters in report views. This allows you and your team to layer further context onto the insights gathered on Upsiide.

In the 'Settings/Import Data' section of your Upsiide dashboard, download the 'Starter' file, which will show you how to import additional data into the platform.

Paste Feature

It's now easy to paste answer options into the Upsiide platform. If you're building a study based on an external draft document, you can shorten your programming time by using the paste shortcut built into your keyboard (PC or Mac).

Insider's tip: for every paragraph break that you include on your draft document, Upsiide will create a new answer option in-platform.

2.6.0 - Idea Splits
