### Secondary ratings

- Ease of use: 4.9/5
- Customer support: 4.9/5
- Value for money: 4.8/5

- 3 stars: 0 reviews (0%)
- 2 stars: 0 reviews (0%)
- 1 star: 0 reviews (0%)

### Most mentioned pros

- I was analyzing transcripts from 50 hour-long interviews and it had the power and capacity for me to code my data without weird delays or tech issues and the tools were exactly what I needed.
- It helps me a lot for me to highlight and categorize my interview transcripts with several interviewees.
- I had never used a research software before I used Delve, and I really appreciated how user friendly, practical, and effective it was at helping me to organize my qualitative data so I could analyze and write my dissertation more efficiently.

### Most mentioned cons

- I would have liked to be able to perform these steps within Delve but the program did not appear to allow the additional levels of coding this would have required.
- Not much bad to say here, but the exporting the final analysis in Excel wasn't done in the best way, and also including more export formats maybe could be nicer.
- The only thing I would say I find as a con is that you cannot continue accessing your previous research if you discontinue your subscription.

It felt like a little hidden gem that I stumbled upon. I couldn't believe how simple, effective, and practical it was. Easy to upload all my transcripts, simple to edit the wording of my codes, and so great for searching for direct quotes from participants to support my claims.

#### Pros

Delve is so easy to learn, yet hugely effective. Watching the tutorials helped me pick up all the features quickly. The search function was very helpful as I did my actual research. It made is so easy for me to search for specific terms that multiple participants used.

#### Cons

Nothing. It was flawless. Logging in each day was simple. Generating specific data was effortless. I wouldn't change a thing.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Delve was very intuitive and easy to use. I liked how many resources the Delve team made freely available via their blog and YouTube channels. These resources were incredible helpful, and a very great way for a new qualitative researcher to learn. I also appreciate the low cost and ability to use Delve when I need it, and pause my subscription when I don't need it.

#### Cons

I truly can't think of anything about this product that I dislike. There are data visualization features I'd love to see in the future as they continue to develop, but I think this product fit my needs perfectly.

#### Reasons for switching to Delve

Delve seemed a bit more organized. I did like that I could transcribe interviews within Quirkos and they had a word cloud feature, but I felt more comfortable with the quality of product with Delve and also loved all of their other articles and YouTube videos so much that it was worth it to switch.

I love Delve. This program helped me organize my qualitative analysis. The research project I was completing, had a great deal of data to be analyzed. I needed assistance to organize, analyze, and keep everything straight so that I may complete my work. The customer support was amazing and they were always willing to help with any questions I had. The value for the money was unbelievable.

Absolutely loved this service. The cost was so generous for a student novice and the sales, admin, user-ease were all fantastic. I have honestly really loved working with Delve.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Delve stood out in the market for being really intuitive and easy to use. There were a lot of other options available but they all seemed a bit intense and complicated. For a novice, I really appreciated Delve's simplicity and I wasn't disappointed: and it took me about two minutes to understand so I could begin my analysis immediately. It is really seamless and elegant to work with. A true pleasure - if it's possible to say that of thematic analysis!

#### Cons

On user-friendliness you won't be disappointed. It's a dream to operate. If you need very advanced coding technologies and AI generated codes then you might want to try a different option. But for my MA this is great.

#### Pros

The videos that accompany the program guide you through its use step by step. That was amazing! The price was amazing as well. Struggling students don't have 100s of dollars to dedicate to programs. This one was so affordable.

#### Cons

It was pretty bland. I wish I could have color-coded some things to help with data fatigue. The price makes up for this, but it was the one thing I wish were different.

I have been using Delve as my qualitative tool for data analysis since I started doing qualitative studies just as when Delve started, sometime in 2021, if I remember it correctly. I've found Delve user-friendly. More importantly [sensitive content hidden] have been very hospitable and always there to respond to my questions and concerns. I feel very much at home using Delve.

What I like most about Delve its very affordable price. Given that I am a freelance researcher, I've found its pricing very reasonable and helpful.

#### Cons

Well, none really. But if compel to give at least one, I think it is the security concern. I am not quite sure whether my data are secured with Delve.

First of all, excellent support with refunds, when I reached out about not using it for 2 months, which always is a good sign for a legit company interested in actually providing a service, and not just making money.

#### Cons

Waiting for the AI capabilities to improve, and IT does take a little bit of time to get used to, but overall, pretty straightforward

I've used it daily for about a week now and I really love it! I've been in conversation with the Delve team who answer my questions almost immediately. Really appreciate that kind of direct interaction! The Delve platform is exactly what I need where others were overwrought and too expensive.

### Loving Delve! A real life saver in coding for a student doing research - a few minor tweaks could make it amazing!

Overall, Delve has been a life saver and a great thing for someone with dyslexia to help organise my coding. I am so thankful and will use it for future projects too. I appreciate the bot who can answer most questions but liked speaking to [sensitive content hidden] as a human who was very helpful today.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I love the way it helps me to map out codes for my research and create codes and nest them into sections. You can search by keyword, and there are lots of helpful features like looking at snippets and filtering systems. The tutorials and mini-course on analysing data is great and helped me a lot. It has helped me a lot as a dyslexic learner to plan and organise my analysis. I will definitely recommend. Also to add, the customer service team are very responsive and helpful. Thanks Delve

#### Cons

I would have liked an easy way to view all codes and move them around to rearrange them and add nesting, not only via the list, as you have to scroll up and down with the mouse and it is hard to find things. This was time-consuming. Also, it would be good to be able to move codes and nest items when you have searched by name. Currently, you cannot move anything when you are applying a filter. Last thing on my list would be to export codes and subcodes into a list (without the snippets) so you can see themes for planning the write up - even better if it made a mind map for you (but that might be wishful thinking)

Excellent; I reviewed a number of CAQDAS platforms - NVivo, Quirkos, Dedoose, MaxQDA - each has their strengths mostly reflected by what type of data you with which you are working, but Delve seemed the most straightforward and intuitive. Customer service was outstanding.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Delve provides an easy interface with straightforward and intuitive operations for uploading a formatted transcript, creating codes/subcodes, and assigning snippets to codes. There is an optional AI engine, an ability to export files including a code book and the coding document. You can collaborate on files with someone who is also a registered user. It has an excellent price point for a student with a valid .edu email address; first two weeks free, $18/month after or $200 for the year - typically $600/yr for an individual investigator. There are a number of very useful tutorials that made navigating the platform easy even for a Luddite like me; more importantly, it allows one to focus on the coding rather than how to present the work.

#### Cons

The online platform provides a rich visual experience; the exported files lack the visual appeal of the online experience.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 4/5

#### Pros

The data analysis was my favorite part of using Delve. Delve helped conduct qualitative research. I used it to code and find connections between 14, 60-minute interviews with experts. I used the findings for my MS thesis and later to build storytelling around each.

#### Cons

I choose not to connect applications with SSO, for security purposes. It would be best to keep any offerings optional for users. The design of the platform could have better UX and by integrating AI it can improve its social and communications potential to help users maximize their findings by helping to develop content with it.

I used Delve for my dissertation. Already overwhelmed with the process, this was one of the most straightforward (and fun parts). The way one can create, combine, and delete codes allows for some play. Even when exploring the data, the work to transform my extensive notes into a narrative was minimal.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

Delve had a staff that was very responsive to questions and an intuitive platform. Even if you do not use the product, the coding modules are a great refresher on analyzing your data.

#### Cons

No notes. The platform was intuitive enough for a person like me that does not use tech. However, how I could import transcripts, create notes, and multiple codes for the same data was very useful.

### Delve Qualitative Data Analysis Tool

One word, "helpful." Delve proved to be very helpful for the project I conducted. I happen to have come across it by chance and it proved to be such a wonderful opportunity that I was able to grab. Delve did not only help me speed up my research process through its features but also afforded me more time to focus on the actual analysis. It assisted me in working through my data across transcripts and groups/categories in an organized manner. I was also able to review the themes, codes, and specific parts of the transcripts easily, which enabled me to dig deeper into the data and solidify the ideas even further. It was so helpful to me that I have already spoken to colleagues and friends about the tool. I'm truly confident that whoever will experience it will also find it useful.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

Among the many things that Delve brings to the table, my favorite feature is the Grouping/Categorizing and the Search function. These may not appear as complex features but compared to traditional tools, such as pen and paper or word processors, they prove to be very useful when conducting qualitative analysis. It also does not have a limit on the number of transcripts that can be uploaded so it makes it easier to group the codes and review them. Through Delve, I was able to spend more time on "analyzing" than "finding" and "locating."

#### Cons

Rather than liking least, I think I would suggest a few additional features that may also be useful to us users. Of course, we do have different purposes for engaging with Delve but I believe that a good percentage of users also want to extract visuals that can aid in the work that we're doing (may it be academic research, work report etc.). I think having the function to extract automated visuals through graphs, diagrams etc.
