FeedBear is a simpler, easier to use, and significantly cheaper UserVoice alternative. Where UserVoice is a bloated tool designed exclusively for big businesses, FeedBear is flexible, lightweight and suited to companies of all sizes.
FeedBear is a UserVoice Alternative for Modern Companies
UserVoice has been around for a long time, and has a ton of features. Unfortunately, that means it's become bogged down with too many moving parts, and the way its set up is not conducive to the needs of most businesses today.
That feature set comes at a price, too. UserVoice's pricing starts from $500 per month. In comparison, FeedBear starts at only $49 per month, for all the features you actually need.
What's more, FeedBear makes it easy to sign up and see if it's right for you. With UserVoice, you need to go through an antiquated demo and onboarding process, before you even get the chance to put it into action.
FeedBear vs UserVoice: Quick Summary
UserVoice is an enterprise-grade feedback management software. It offers solutions for companies to capture, analyze and act on customer feedback, integrating this feedback with your product development process and communicating product updates back to your customers.
FeedBear, in comparison, is a newer player in the market, designed specifically for modern, agile companies. It offers the same core features, at a much lower price and with a much lower barrier to entry.
To build a product your customers love, you need to be able to act fast and in tune with what your customers are saying and asking for. The simplicity of FeedBear lends itself to that, while the feature bloated UserVoice does not.
FeedBear vs UserVoice Usability
✅ FeedBear gives you everything you need, right at your fingertips
❌ UserVoice has some powerful features, but is bogged down by features you don't want or need
UserVoice has a ton of features. These features are tailored to large corporations - and are a “box of tricks” that can take serious time and effort to navigate.
Half the battle is configuring the platform and knowing what to turn off and what to leave on. If you read through UserVoice reviews - a common complaint is that the UI is confusing and cumbersome, and getting it to do what you want can be a painstaking process.
The tool is powerful no doubt, but for many businesses it will be overkill and take up a lot of time and energy to properly use.
FeedBear on the other hand is designed to give you exactly what you need to gather and action user feedback, without overcomplicating things.
FeedBear gives you the tools to do three things - gather and organise feedback, create a roadmap, and update your users through a changelog.
Your users will be involved at every step of the way. They are able to submit ideas and feedback easily, vote and comment on the ideas of others, and can be automatically updated by email.
It’s the best way to keep users in the loop and involve them in your mission. FeedBear is simple to use, integrates easily with your existing site, and won’t ever confuse or frustrate you.
FeedBear vs UserVoice Onboarding
✅ Getting started with FeedBear is easy. Sign up for a free trial with just a few clicks, or book a demo
❌ The only way to sign up for UserVoice is to go through multiple sales calls - and there's no free trial
With UserVoice, the onboarding process is a bit of a maze. You’ll need to have multiple calls with sales representatives. You can’t try the product out without getting on the phone first. Self-serve isn’t really an option. As it’s so complex, you’ll need one of their people to help you to set it up and customize it.
With FeedBear you can sign up straight away with a few clicks, and be all set up in 10 minutes.
You can start with a 14-day free trial, so you’ll know the tool inside out before needing to commit your time or money. It’s a far more convenient, lower risk model.
FeedBear vs UserVoice Pricing
✅ FeedBear offers affordable and transparent pricing, starting at $49 per month
❌ UserVoice pricing is hard to obtain, and is believed to be at least $500 per month
Tied with a contract or paid upfront for UserVoice? You can get FeedBear for free for the remaining duration of your contract. Just reach out to [email protected] to take advantage of this offer.
Then there's the elephant in the room - the price.
FeedBear is the most affordable feedback collection and roadmapping tool on the market. At just $49 per month, for the full feature set with unlimited boards and unlimited use, any company can afford to use FeedBear.
In comparison, UserVoice costs at least $500/month at the lowest end.
It’s hard to actually figure out how much it will cost you though as there’s no self-serve, transparent pricing options - you’ll be given a quote by a sales representative. Some mention it will cost at least $15,000/year!
