before
The challenge
- The lab paid $15K+ per year for Qualtrics and had little control over how assessments looked and worked.
- Key features were missing: subgroup filtering and custom benchmarking.
- Each instrument had 100 to 200 questions with display, skip and branch logic, matrix, NPS, Likert, reverse scoring and quotas.
- The researcher would not accept a lossy migration. Feature parity had to come before cutover.
what we built
The solution
- Rebuilt the full Qualtrics logic set: display, skip and branch logic, embedded data, matrix, NPS, Likert, reverse scoring, quotas.
- Anonymous and email distributions in the custom platform.
- A Qualtrics-to-platform importer for historical exports and ongoing responses.
- A one-time bulk migration of the 25,000-case SpiritPulse dataset from a Stata export.
after
The results
- Achieved a cancelled Qualtrics subscription, without forfeiting any validated historical case.
- Merged 25,000 SpiritPulse cases with 40,000+ legacy STI responses in one database.
- Achieved Qualtrics feature parity in the survey builder, so clients self-serve without our help.
- 473 distributions now run in the platform.
“It's much cleaner. A clean, world class UI is going to be crucial for selling it.”
