Por que este modelo
- Includes an AI follow-up interview that adapts to each respondent's earlier answers about their documentation experience, going beyond fixed-choice questions
- Combines quantitative UX metrics (findability, search relevance, navigation structure, terminology clarity) with open-text follow-ups on unclear terms and missing content
- Uses a ranking exercise to prioritize which navigation aids (e.g., search, sidebar, breadcrumbs) actually help users, giving direct input for IA decisions
- Captures role, experience level, primary language, and org size as segmentation variables so findability issues can be analyzed by developer persona
QuestionPro
Technical Documentation Survey TemplateThis is a fielding-ready static survey template focused on technical documentation feedback, covering clarity and usefulness at a general level. It's a reasonable starting point for basic satisfaction tracking but doesn't appear structured around specific UX dimensions like search quality or information architecture fit. As with most QuestionPro templates, it is built for standard multiple-choice/rating question flows rather than conversational depth.
O que faz bem
- Ready-to-use template within an established survey platform with broad question-type support
- Backed by QuestionPro's reporting and analytics dashboard
- Likely customizable within their survey builder for teams already on that platform
Onde deixa a desejar
- No adaptive AI follow-up questioning — respondents get the same fixed question set regardless of their answers
- No voice AI interview or guided screen-share task option to observe actual navigation/search behavior
- No published methodology on how questions were validated or scored, unlike a platform with transparent, per-response quality scoring
