Introducing the All-New Pre-Capture Screen for Web and Device Surveys!

Now you can streamline your surveys with the Pre-Capture Screen, a brand-new feature designed to improve your data collection process across both online and offline platforms.

What is the Pre-Capture Screen?

The Pre-Capture Screen is a dedicated screen that appears before your survey begins, allowing you to gather key information like contact details or context-specific data, making your surveys smarter and more efficient.

Why You’ll Love It:

  • Available for Web and Device Surveys: Whether your surveys are hosted online or on devices at physical locations, the Pre-Capture Screen works seamlessly across both. It provides a unified, consistent experience for respondents, whether they’re online or interacting with a kiosk.
  • Gather Essential Information Before the Survey: Use this screen to capture critical details such as names, email addresses, or unique identifiers before the respondent dives into the survey. For online surveys, this improves data accuracy and reduces survey length. For offline settings like retail stores or restaurants, staff can easily pre-fill this information before handing the device to customers for their input.
  • Fast and Easy Setup: Adding the Pre-Capture Screen to your survey takes just a few clicks. In the survey builder, simply choose Pre Capture Screen from “+Add Questions” in the Survey Builder and start adding questions.
  • Customizable Navigation: Pre-configured buttons like "Get Started" and "Back" allow for smooth transitions, ensuring that the Pre-Capture Screen fits into your survey flow seamlessly.
  • Single-Screen Layout: Multiple fields or questions added to the Pre-Capture Screen will display on a single page, making the data collection process clearer and faster for your team or customers.

Perfect for Multiple Use Cases:

  • Online Surveys: Easily pre-capture critical respondent details like contact info or customer IDs to set up a smooth survey process.
  • Offline Surveys: In environments like restaurants, retail stores, and kiosks, staff can quickly pre-fill information like table numbers or purchase data before passing the device to the customer, speeding up the feedback collection process.

Full Name Search now available in the Contacts Search

Finding the right contact just got a lot easier with the new Full Name Search feature in the Contacts. This enhancement addresses the challenge of locating contacts when only the first name was searchable, particularly in large contact lists.

What’s changed?

  • Full Name Search Capability: Previously, the search only returned results based on the first name. Now, you can search using both the first and last names, making it significantly easier to find exactly who you’re looking for, even in extensive databases.
  • Enhanced Efficiency: Whether you're managing a large contact list or just need to quickly find a specific individual, this improvement drastically reduces the time spent searching, improving overall workflow.

The updated search functionality is now live.

You can now capture key insights from hidden variables, even when respondent tracking is turned off. This enhancement makes it possible to collect and view hidden variables in response details without needing to identify or track the respondents.

Whether you’re conducting anonymous feedback surveys, gathering sensitive information, or simply aiming to maintain user privacy, this feature offers the best of both worlds—anonymity and insightful data collection.

Use Cases:

  • Anonymous Feedback Surveys: Collect anonymous survey responses while still tracking important variables such as user segments, regions, or feedback channels.
  • Event Registrations and Polls: Gather data from participants without needing personal identifiers, ensuring complete privacy while still accessing valuable insights.
  • Market Research: Analyze hidden variables like survey source or campaign ID without linking it back to individual respondents, preserving participant confidentiality.

How you'll benefit:

  • Maintain Anonymity: Ensure respondent privacy while still capturing meaningful data through hidden variables.
  • Deeper Insights: Sync hidden variables directly with response details, giving you richer insights even in anonymous surveys.
  • Enhanced Flexibility: Use hidden variables in various scenarios without worrying about respondent tracking limitations.

Mobile Exit Intent Surveys now available in mobile

The Mobile Exit Intent feature allows businesses to trigger surveys when users show intent to exit a mobile browser, capturing crucial feedback before they leave. This new functionality helps you gather insights at the moment users are about to abandon your mobile site, providing a key opportunity to understand their behavior and address any issues.

How Mobile Exit Intent works

By detecting common exit signals on mobile devices, such as:

  • Clicking the back button on the browser,
  • Scrolling up to reveal the bottom browser bar, or
  • Switching tabs or opening a new one,

the feature triggers a feedback survey, giving users a chance to share their thoughts before exiting.

Why it matters

Capturing feedback just before users leave your mobile site helps you:

  • Increase response rates by targeting users at a pivotal moment.
  • Gain insights into exit behavior to identify and resolve pain points.
  • Improve the overall user experience by understanding why visitors leave.
