“From start to finish, Discuss has been an awesome partner. Discuss helps us be more agile, which is critical.”
Liz White
SVP, Research & Strategy
“We’ve definitely kissed our share of frogs! I always tell clients that we’ve tried just about everyone out there, which is why we can confidently say that with Discuss, we’re using the best technology available.”
Katie Shaw
VP of Operations
“Using Discuss, I’m able to empower 150 marketers at Telenet to own the voice of the consumer.”
Caroline Verkest
Senior Market Researcher
“At Telenet, we empower our product teams with tools like Discuss, enabling them to directly connect with consumers and truly understand their wants and needs. Customer feedback is at the heart of our strategy, and Discuss ensures that every business team can actively listen to and act on our customers’ voices.”
Laurence Fermont
Market Research Analyst
“Shoppers really struggled to be able to find ‘dermatologically tested’ on one of our Dove products because it was written in white font on a gold background. One of the decisions we made as a result of the Discuss research is to use a flat design so people could read it more clearly on their screen.”
“I use Discuss anytime we have online groups or IDIs. It’s so easy to use and even intuitive for clients who haven’t used it before. Nothing to download or account to create. As a moderator, I can show any stimuli (images, video, etc.) easily or I can share my screen to go through a website, Figma, or anything along those lines.”
