Delighted vs Refiner: Go beyond simple NPS & CSAT surveys

Delighted alternative: Go beyond NPS & CSAT with an advanced microsurvey tool for digital products

Delighted is a great customer satisfaction survey solution. They were traditionally focused on NPS & CSAT surveys, but also support product and employee feedback surveys. According to their website, they are an experience management platform of choice for world’s top brands.They allow you to send surveys by email, with website popups, survey links, a "Kiosk" app and on iOS mobile apps. At Refiner, we offer a similar set of survey distribution channels. However, we are much more focused on one type of customer: web & mobile app companies. Our flagship product is perfectly timed in-product microsurveys. We support all relevant microsurvey use cases for SaaS, Fintech, Edtech, and cusomer mobile apps. Our beautiful survey widgets are fully customizable and come with advanced personalization options.

Delighted vs. Refiner

At Refiner, we focus 100% on the needs of modern software companies that are looking to survey their users with in-product & email surveys.

Focused on in-product surveys

Delighted surveys are designed for a general audience. This means they are not a perfect fit for software teams looking to launch surveys inside a web or mobile application. We understand you don’t only run NPS, CSAT or CES surveys and you need to be able to create specific surveys for specific customers and users.You probably already use analytics tools better designed for your needs than Delighted, and you want the same for your surveys.We know your product experience needs to be perfect so we built the right tools to improve the response rate inside your product.

More customization options

Delighted lets you customize surveys a little bit but it is limited. With Refiner, you can of course customize colors and borders, you can also define which kind of widget you want: slide-in, modal, etc.But there’s more. For enterprise customers, you have total control over the design so you can create fully branded surveys.With great survey design and precise targeting you will achieve incredibly high response rates with perfectly timed micro surveys!

Integrations with your favorite tools

Delighted has a lot of integrations but they are mostly centered around customer support use cases. The integrations we offer at Refiner are more useful for SaaS and digital product companies.Surveys are a means to an end and the goal is to close the customer feedback loop so everyone knows what to do next.That’s why integrations are so important and why the right seamless integrations can make this job a lot easier.In addition to Zapier, Refiner also integrates with Make so you can create even more advanced automations. Send survey data to all the platforms you need to and create users or events from external triggers.Customer.io is also a first-class integration of Refiner and lets you send messages depending on a survey response and close the feedback loop with the right message to customers.

Send survey responses to your favorite tools

Refiner offers the most personalizable survey experience

Delighted allows you to create additional questions for NPS, CSAT, CES, Product-Market Fit surveys and write different messages depending on the result of the score. It’s great but they are missing plenty of features to make surveys truly personalized.

With Refiner, we decided to push personalization a lot further.

NPS, CSAT, CES, Star & Heart Ratings: get the rating style that fits your use case and goals.

Liquid tags: create more personalized surveys by using customers’ name and information.

Logic Jumps & branching: customize your survey based on answers to get the most accurate feedback possible.

Hidden fields & prefill responses: don’t ask people questions you already have the answer to.

Dynamic Call-to-Actions: invite respondents to take action right after their answers. Ask for a review, offer a coupon, schedule a call, etc.

Don’t just take our word for it

We are proud to serve hundreds of happy B2B SaaS, Fintech, Edtech, Online Marketplaces and Consumer Mobile Apps customers.

We love using Refiner to automatically gather NPS survey results and get critical feedback we need from our trial users so we can constantly improve our word of mouth flywheel. With its Segment and Zapier integrations it fits right into our product led growth tech stack. Easy to install, tons of value and zero hassle.

Paul Yacoubian

Founder, CEO

Refiner is a powerful survey tool that allows to precisely target user segments based on our data. We tested several tools before going to Refiner and what made the big difference is that with Refiner every survey answer is directly logged into our database via Segment, and that’s a game changer! Also, the initial integration and setup were seamless and extremely easy. The templates and the ability to customize survey with our own branding and targeting specs is very much appreciated too.

Margaux Reynaud

Refiner is the tool we were searching for to better profile our users, and gather feedback about our products. It’s very easy to set up, comes with a great UX for our users and the team is very reactive.

Javier Escribano

Refiner changed the way we operate. As a data-driven online service, we needed a way to collect feedback unintrusively at scale. Their tool helped us reach this goal in no time. Bonus : it fits super well in our growth stack (Segment, Customer.io).

Super easy two-way integration with Segment and great support in setting up and launching our in-app surveys, made it a success!

Coralie Blanc

With its Segment integration, Refiner makes it super easy to survey fragmented user segments easily based on properties and/or events and sync results with our data warehouse for further analysis. Setting up Refiner was a child’s play and creating new surveys is a matter of minutes. 10/10 points.

Alexander Schneekloth

Co-Founder

We discovered Refiner while using another SaaS product and we instantly fell in love with their UI / UX. So we gave it a go and were collecting user feedback for SnapShooter in no time. We are using Refiner to collect insights about how our users discovered us. The Slack notifications when someone completes a survey are a great addition to keep the team informed.

Simon Bennett

Founder

We were looking for a survey solution for our product that could flawlessly be synced with Segment. Refiner is the only solution we found that addresses data integrations as a main feature and not as an afterthought. Refiner is an incredibly flexible tool that can be used by nearly every team at Livestorm: growth and marketing, product, customer experience and support, and even sales.

Thibaut Davoult

Head of Growth

We looked at various NPS solutions but Refiner was the only one which was built from the ground up to meet the needs of SaaS companies. Refiner gives us complete flexibility and their surveys match our UI/UX 100%.
