## Reviews

### "Decipher Review 2020" — 5.0/5

> **Aastha** | *25 May 2020* | Market Research | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Its very user friendly and most of the features of this tool are very easy for a programmer. Mostly Drag and Drop features are very easier and user friendly. Its one tool having all the packages i.e. Survey Programming, Data Capture, Cross Tabulation, Reporting, Dashboard. Really a great tool.
> 
> **Cons**: When it comes to tabulation then we have very less limit for Sig test characters. We have 26 characters i.e. from A to Z but it should support more characters, otherwise we need to divide single banner having many banner points into different banners.
> 
> Great experience. Customer service support is also very good.
