Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Pros:

Our department creates documents in MS office suite and Adobe CC. I'm currently working my way through the Deque University courses for Document Accessibility.Courses are laid out in bite-sized engaging videos with captioning. Cool features: it keeps my place when I leave off on a lesson, and issues certificates on completion. There are also training units for IAAP Certification!Our entire team uses the free Colour Contrast Analyser too.

Cons:

I need to explore more of the tools to answer this. I have not found any cons.

Pros:

We needed software that could help us achieve accessibility. We tested a few and Deque came up on top each time. It was so easy to use and intuitive. It helped me with manual and technical tasks. I have since recommended this software to other departments in my company and they are now using Deque Axe. Such a great product.

Cons:

We purchased this product for the web team (4 licenses). Every one on the team loved the product and we didn't find anything that didn't work well.

Reasons for choosing Deque

Ease of use, great product, cost.

Pros:

I love that they have a whole on-demand academy for training and prepping for certificate exams. I also like that their axe scan tool is so easy that we could have our PMs and UXers run the scans and it was really clear what we needed to fix and what was and was not in complpiance.

Cons:

for the first year I had worked with Deque I had a hard time getting someone to work with me to see if we could come up with a solution for our enterprise QA automation, but it took a while to get someone to call me back, and also when I did talk to someone who I believe to be the son of the founder, we determined they didn't have what they needed. After I signed a deal with Level Access a year later they started hard selling me on their automated services, which was too late. SO that was a bummer cause I liked Deque. Level Access has been great too.

Deque makes accessibility easier for large websites

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Functionality

Pros:

Deque's axe dev tools browser extension makes finding accessibility issues very easy. When an issue is discovered on your page, Deque provides CSS highlighting to identify the problematic element, and when you don't know how to fix the accessibility issue, their dev tools provide a Deque link describing the issue and potential fixes.

Cons:

Deque's dev tools are not able to identify the entire range of accessibility issue. Most results are related to color contrast of surrounding elements or accessibility attributes on HTML buttons and other elements. I've also noticed that their dev tools can sometimes falsely flag an a11y issue.

axe DevTools is a must-have in your web accessibility toolkit

Deque's tooling is some of the best available for developer enablement of accessibility auditing and remediation.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

The DevTools chrome extension makes automated accessibility testing super streamlined. Integrating directly with DevTools means developers easily know where to look to run tests and find issues. I love the ability to highlight and scroll directly to elements causing issues on the page. The Pro version's Intelligent Guided Tests are a great way to learn manual accessibility testing techniques!

Cons:

I would love to see more of the Pro features become available in the Free version. Some ability to run Intelligent Guided Tests (or perhaps Guided Tests without the Intelligence) would be amazing to see available for free to all web devs.

Pros:

Having the pro license, it is very easy to scan the individual sections of the page that I am responsible for ensuring they are WCAG compliant. I like that I can easily see what is flagged and also see suggestions for how to improve it.

Cons:

It is a challenge for users who do not have the pro license and are using the free extension to sift through hundreds of errors to find those that apply to them.
