This page communicates the new features in Alida's April 2024 release.
Community and Surveys
Third party sample request form
Request a project quote for a third party sample from Alida's Managed Services team. The form collects all the pertinent details we need to give you an informed quote in a timely way.
Note: This feature is available to a limited number of customers for the current release. If you are interested in enabling this feature, please contact your Customer Success Manager.
AI-powered auto-translations for surveys
Use the AI machine translations provided by AWS Bedrock to automatically translate your survey text. By auto-translating survey text as the first step and then verifying the translations afterward, you can increase authoring efficiency.
Note: This feature is available for communities in the NA1, AP2, and AP3 pods if customers agree to US data processing. Please contact your Customer Success Manager if you are interested in this feature.
Modern survey responding enhancements
We've made some improvements to the modern survey responding experience based on customer feedback:
-
Grid enhancements
- Wide Grid questions can display up to 7 columns in a screen that's 900 pixels wide.
- Extra-wide Grid questions can display up to 12 columns in a screen that's 1280 pixels wide.
- Column headers remain sticky when participants scroll Grid questions with many rows.
-
Carousel enhancements
- Participants now start a Carousel question with the first card loaded instead of having to click Start to begin.
- Participants can see a summary view of their Carousel progress at the bottom of the question at all times, instead of seeing a summary screen at the end.
-
Single Choice and Multiple Choice questions
- Answer options display radio buttons and check boxes to make it clearer which answers were selected.
- Text-only answer options have a height of 60 pixels.
- Fit and Fill display options are available for images in answers.
Survey preview enhancement
- Survey authors can use the Start Preview At menu in the survey preview to jump to any question.
- Survey authors can click Preview survey in new tab, and then copy and paste the preview URL from the new browser tab to share with internal stakeholders. The preview URL is valid for 2 hours.
SSO configuration workflow (coming soon)
The new SSO configuration workflow allows admins to more easily configure single sign-on between the Alida platform and Azure, Okta, or OneLogin.
Scheduled video discussions
Create and distribute scheduled video discussions more efficiently by sending participants invitations to select a scheduled timeslot.
Least Filled concept testing (coming soon)
Least Filled ensures that the concepts with the least number of responses are prioritized when displaying concepts to subsequent participants. This allows you to collect the responses you need and achieve even distribution even with smaller sample sizes.
