Questions about UserGist vs Frill.

Does Frill have surveys now?

Yes. Frill lists NPS, CSAT, idea polls, quick polls, and open-feedback surveys. This comparison gives Frill credit for that overlap instead of treating it only as a roadmap tool.

Does UserGist include Frill’s prioritization matrix?

No. UserGist lets you manage requests and a roadmap, but this comparison does not claim a built-in benefit/cost prioritization matrix or Frill’s inline administration workflow.

Can UserGist include people who have not signed up?

Yes. UserGist supports anonymous and identified app users. Configure the appropriate audience and consent settings for feedback, surveys, and messages. Public portal access has separate settings.

How should I plan a move from Frill?

List the workflows you rely on first. Review exports, user identities, consent, SDK coverage, and existing links. Test a small campaign before replacing anything live; this comparison does not promise a one-click importer or automatic transfer of subscriptions.
