Human insight platform for unmoderated video user research; 2M+ panelist access enabling same-day prototype and website testing for Apple and Salesforce competing with Maze and Hotjar.
UserTesting is a human insight platform providing on-demand access to targeted panelists who record their screen and voice while completing tasks on websites, apps, and prototypes — enabling product, UX, marketing, and research teams to watch real users navigate their products and hear authentic reactions within hours rather than weeks. Listed on NYSE (NYSE: USER) before being acquired by Thoma Bravo private equity in 2023 for approximately $1.3 billion, UserTesting is headquartered in San Francisco and serves thousands of companies including Apple, Salesforce, Microsoft, and Walmart for rapid user research.\n\nUserTesting's platform enables teams to recruit from a panel of over 2 million contributors globally, filtered by demographic characteristics, and have them complete structured tasks while recording their screen, voice, and facial expressions. Researchers receive video clips sorted by predefined test metrics within hours, rather than waiting weeks to schedule in-person usability studies. Machine learning tools analyze videos to identify emotional reactions, sentiment, and task completion rates across participants.\n\nIn 2025, UserTesting competes in the user research and experience insight market against Maze (prototype testing), Lookback (live user interview platform), Hotjar (behavioral analytics), and Medallia (enterprise experience management). The user research market has consolidated as companies invest in continuous discovery practices rather than periodic research sprints. UserTesting's acquisition by Thoma Bravo and combination with UserZoom (another Thoma Bravo portfolio company) created a more comprehensive research platform covering both unmoderated video testing and moderated live interview capabilities. The 2025 strategy focuses on the combined UserTesting-UserZoom platform, expanding AI-powered insight synthesis from video research, and growing enterprise adoption of continuous research practices.
Oracle Corporation's cloud ERP for SMBs (40,000+ customers, 219 countries); NetSuite Next's Ask Oracle natural language AI assistant (SuiteWorld 2025), single-platform financial/CRM/inventory competing with SAP Business One.
NetSuite is a San Mateo, California and Austin, Texas-based cloud enterprise resource planning (ERP) platform and business unit of Oracle Corporation (NYSE: ORCL) — serving over 40,000 customers in 219 countries and territories with cloud-native financial management, CRM, inventory, supply chain, human capital management, and e-commerce applications designed for small-to-midsize businesses and rapidly growing enterprises that need unified business management software from a single cloud platform. NetSuite was founded in 1998 as NetLedger (one of the world's first cloud-based ERP systems) and acquired by Oracle in 2016 for $9.3 billion. Oracle's platform integration — connecting NetSuite to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), Oracle Analytics Cloud, and Oracle's AI layer — enables NetSuite to leverage hyperscale compute, data warehousing, and generative AI capabilities that independent ERP vendors cannot build at equivalent cost. At SuiteWorld 2025, NetSuite unveiled NetSuite Next, featuring Ask Oracle — a natural language AI assistant enabling business users to search records, navigate workflows, analyze financial data, and trigger business actions across the entire NetSuite dataset through conversational queries rather than menu navigation — advancing toward autonomous AI-driven business management. The Oracle leadership transition (co-CEOs Clay Magouyrk and Mike Sicilia replacing Safra Catz) underscores Oracle's commitment to accelerating cloud product innovation across NetSuite, Oracle Cloud ERP (Fusion), and Oracle's SaaS portfolio.
